With so many diverse backgrounds on RallyPoint I have to wonder if we made the right decisions when we chose to change branches, jobs, etc. If you could go back in time would you have made the same choices? Was the decision to reclass your own or did your job get phased out?

Back in 1996 I wanted to go active so bad that when they told me they did not have a medic slot (I was prior service), I took what they offered. it did not go well, and I ended up being chaptered for APFT failure. Seven years later I commissioned into the nurse corps where I belonged and retired 18years later.

I loved being a medic, but I could never make SGT. I loved being a 12B, but I could never make SGT. Of course, looking back, I know why I never made SGT within my first 10 years. After a 5.5 year break of extracting my cranium from my fourth point of contact and reclassing to Preventive Medicine, going from SPC to MSG in 14 years....I think I made the right choice.
