Thanks Mike, at least there is a possibility.

Yes Mike, the red tape is ridiculous. I retired after OIF II in '05 and have tried since '07 to get back in. But, I can remember back in the early eighties guys in their fifties popping back in the...

What is the allowable oldest age a prior service soldier can be?

Well, I did basic in 1985 at Leonard Wood and there was a 38 year old guy who had acheived the rank of MSG by the time he left. Not sure when he originally discharged, but he re-enlisted with a long...

We encountered tasks along the way and we wet bulbed and was forced to rest for a couple of hours. The length of time really wasn't what was important. I was just wondering if 2-5 miles is the norm...

Wow! Basic sure has changed. I went to Ft. Leonard Wood in the hot, drooling summer of 1985. Yep, I will always be an Engineer. We did a rediculous road march of 22 miles. I am not kidding you. ...

Thank you Major, I know it may be slow going. I worked a good while with recruiters behind the scenes as a readiness NCO, so I have a good idea what I'm looking at. I just hate not knowing how long...

Over in the prior service folder I asked some questions about reversing my retirement. Well, I did find a recruiter to submit my NGB-22's for review to ARPAC (I think that's the correct acronym) in...

GgggGrandfather in Rev War, ggggrandfather and his son were in CW (actually had family on both sides), not sure about WWI, grandfather in WWII, dad during Cold War peace time, many uncles in Nam, me...

I retired at 40 and on the month my first over 40 physical was due, so I missed it:p ! However, with my packet at RPAC for reinstatement I guess I can look forward to it when it gets approved.

So how was the first RSP weekend?

Many months back I was on here discussing reversing my retirement. Some said it could be done, others said no way. Well, I have over twenty years in the Guard and have been out 3.5 years. I should...

I too am a 21 year retired guardsman from Ohio. I am working on reversing it this very moment. I have gotten lucky in finding a recruiter who has handled this situation before. I'll keep you...
