Has anyone had any experience joining active duty army immediately after the reserve? I was active then went reserve when I ets’d. My reserve contract is over in about 5 months and I decided not to go the 368 route, as it would arrive by the time my contract ended.
Also, would it be an issue if I had like a few weeks break in service? Due to working with a recruiter after I get out of the reserve?

Just be aware it may take longer than a few weeks to get back in. Could take weeks, or months in that gap.

If your contract is up, you will go back to basic once again, but get treated like a reclass when you get to AIT. They are always adjusting the standards based on need/politics, so if that is the case and you don't want to re-do basic, wait for then to get desperate. In '07 they were taking almost anyone.

It would be a lot easier I wish I was there but I have 1 year left and my DA368 seems to be taking forever. But wouldn't you be in the IRR or you will be totally off contract?

SGT (Join to see) - I would go talk with an active duty recruiter first and see what action would be best. Remember check the prior service business rules to see what MOS is open for your rank chances are you will end up switching your MOS. Good luck.
