I am currently in DEP, as a re-entry I was told I get what is available. The only thing available was 11X. I am 29 years old and don't plan on doing any schools in to excel in that MOS. I am having second thoughts about re-joining as I don't think I will be suited for 11X. I am married as well. With infantry day to day life being all over the place it wouldn't be fair to my wife. I am wondering if anyone has any options or suggestions if there is any. I know the army looks at re-entry as your like to get back in. However is it worth it? I want to serve my country but I also want to be fair to myself and my wife. I don't know if my body or my wife would be able to handle 11X as this a more demanding position in the army. I am due to ship out in a month and have not sworn in yet. Thank you for anyone who can help.

Have you thought about the Army Reserves or National Guard? Once back in and assigned to a unit you can apply for an Active Reserve position. There are also lots of one to two year AD tours you can sign up for as well. Or just do your weekends and see were your career takes you.

Join the Air Force if they let you. 11X is Rangers and they spend an average of 280 days a year in the field and longer if deployed.

What ever you do, do not, do not, I say again DO NOT, reclass to 31E if they offer it to you.
