I'll send you a private message with some contact details that should be able to help you out.<br /><br />The process for consideration is pretty straight forward. You'll submit the standard OERs and APFT results, along with a recommendation from your current O-5+. Be prepared to submit a civilian resume and academic transcripts. Much of Reserve CA requires training/knowledge/experience outside of the military to be truly successful, and any leadership, emergency services, project management, and/or government experience is especially helpful to a CA officer.<br /><br />A number of battalions in the 304th have openings right now, and we are still deploying if you're interested in that (our focus is Africa). Before you can be qualified as a CA officer and be granted the branch, you'll need to complete CCC, then complete CAQC, the Civil Affairs Qualification Course at Fort Bragg. CAQC is no joke, it's a joint training environment with your active duty counterparts, and it's very physically and mentally challenging. You can drill with a unit prior to qualification, but be prepared to be asked to move quickly through the training process.<br /><br />Good luck!Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 12 at 2014 3:54 AM2014-07-12T03:54:34-04:002014-07-12T03:54:34-04:00MSG Tyler Youngs176222<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sir,<br /> Contact me tyler.l.youngs.mil I will get you forwarded to who you need to speak to.<br /><br /><br />MSG YoungsResponse by MSG Tyler Youngs made Jul 12 at 2014 11:45 AM2014-07-12T11:45:19-04:002014-07-12T11:45:19-04:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member252004<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Contact Marvin Tador, he did this program.
