I'm getting conflicting information from 2 different recruiters about needing Basic Training again so I was trying to get an idea about rather or not I have to do it again before MEPS.

My ETS was 5/1/2017, I'm about to graduate from college and attempting to join back as an officer. Would I need basic training again even though my ETS wasnt that long ago?

Thanks for any assistance

You are talking Apples and Oranges. If enlisting as an O you will be sent to Officers Basic Course, for the branch you are going into, not OSUT, nor enlisted Basic.

Roger SGM Frazier. My current recruiter was telling me I had to do Basic Training again prior to going to OCS, and then I had a buddy who is a recruiter in a different state telling me I didnt need it which led me here to see a general consensus of everyone.
Thank you for your assistance
