My husband did 7 1/2 years in the army first 3 years full time then last 4 years in the reserves. Did deploy overseas once. He has a job now fixing air conditioners but his hours are getting cut all the time. If he decides to join the national guard which does not require international deployment is it like the reserves. Or its full time. I want him to get a full time job. Thank you Hope to hear from someone soon. My husband is a little out of shape now compared to 7 years ago when he just got out of the army. He doesn't want to go back because of the physical fitness. He 36 right now.

In terms of tuition assistant, Will joining the national guard after active duty and using the state's education assistant affect Montgomery GI Bill?

Is it true that that the Army reserves do not have combat MOS’s ? Because that would also be a big deciding factor for some I know it was for me as far as choosing between the Guard and Reserves. Thanks

The vast majority of people would be better off going reserve/guard. AD is not worth it IMO.

I’m looking to join the Air Force, but I do not know if I should go into the guard or reserves. I plan on becoming a cop as well. What is the best option for a full time college student ? I want to be more involved in the air force.

The National guard is federal and State, The reserves is just Federal

Is it true you after 20 yrs you can collect retirement at 60? I have 4 yrs of AD, so I would need 16 more years and start collecting at 56?

I see that reserve doesn’t have any special forces but the national guard does? If that’s correct could I try out for the sf in the ng after basic and ait? With no prior military service ?

Thanks dude! What if I marry a non US citizen person, does the Army reserve help to bring my spouse to here?

[yeleinnyv]

How many years do you have to do as AD before you get to transfer as a NG?

[MrMR-skjm]

do you have a link to that article you wrote?

[HergayisMora]

So if you join national guard or reserve, do you have to stay stuck where you currently reside? I live in Puerto Rico, but I don't see myself living here forever but I also wanna get more information on both before commiting to one.

I'm in Utah. Should I join Utah NG or reserves?

"The pioneers of a warless world are the young men and women who refuse military service. He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." -Albert Einstein
