So, I am thinking about transferring from Active to Reserve. My current ETS will have me at 13 Years of service, and I don't want to lose the time...so I was thinking about going RC. What are your thoughts? Experiences?
My main motivation is for my family. As well as money as a possible GS? Advice?

Hey brother, part of the acap process is to see an rc recruiter, should be one on most every installation. I'm our companies re-up Nco so my knowledge is better then average on the subject but I'm no expert. That being said after having to answer some questions about this subject for my soilders Rc and Ng have a lot of pros to them both. Good luck to you in whatever you decide I think you will be happy no matter what.

Best way to do this is a RC enlistment at the transition point. If you wait until after separation, you will have to go through MEPS.
Your AC time counts toward non-regular retirement. 7 more years and you get the notice of eligibility; age 60 you collect. You do the bare minimum, and you'll still get about 35% from the right side of the pay chart.

So I assume that when my REUP window opens in October, I just let them know I am thinking of changing to RC?

I've always known it to happen during out-processing. Your organizational retention folks probably don't have the authority to facilitate RC enlistments.
Of course they like to change these things without ever telling me.

A lot of Soldiers transitioning from active to the reserve go through significant culture shock when they report to their new unit. Prepare yourself and keep an open mind. As far as GS positions check out CPOL to apply.
