This can be tricky as the guard has already sunk money into you possibly with ROTC and/or schooling and would not want to give up such an asset.<br /><br />The only thing I can say is to try and see what happens.

They opened it up to LTs in all basic branches last year. That’s how I was able to transfer. They might open it again depending on the need.
