What’s the whole process on switching from Army National Guard to Active Duty? Any advice on the process?

I know about the DD368 conditional release paperwork. I’m just wondering how the whole process would work or if anyone has gone through it before. I’ve also heard about some Air Defense Battalions getting stood up so if that would effect it? Still early in the research phase.

CPT (Join to see) You need to look up the Call to Active Duty. HRC publishes it once a year or so, and it outlines the stipulations/requirements to come to Active status. Call/email your branch manager to get more info.

I'm pretty sure the officer side is a lot more complicated. There are a lot of experts here that will give good advice.
I'm just curious if you would have to give up your commission in the national guard before you apply for active duty.

SGT (Join to see) - Well would make sense since the Commission is with the national guard and not the Active Duty Army, that one would have to relinquish their commission with the National Guard. I have read on here with other that getting back in they gave up there commission. But I truly don't know.

Sir, from being the person vented to by a friend that just went active duty from Army National guard, it's a somewhat long process and you have to stay on top of whomever is at your unit handling the process and not be afraid to jump rank and go to the next higher person even if it means going directly to your state level.
