So you are looking to get back in on the AF side? As a Reservist?<br /><br />Assuming all those answers are "yes'.... You will have to find a Recruiter, take the ASVAB again, process through MEPS again, etc... You will have to retrain into a new field (Army=MOS; AF=AFSC) since AF does not have 11B or any variation that would transfer. <br /><br />Most critical, you will have to learn how to enjoy a DFAC and housekeeping services. I know, the challenges of the military, right? :)Response by CMSgt Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 29 at 2017 2:51 PM2017-03-29T14:51:34-04:002017-03-29T14:51:34-04:001stSgt Private RallyPoint Member2457394<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Why?Response by 1stSgt Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 29 at 2017 3:29 PM2017-03-29T15:29:06-04:002017-03-29T15:29:06-04:00SSgt Private RallyPoint Member2457665<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="589669" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/589669-spc-ben-welk">SPC Ben Welk</a> probably the closest thing to 11b (and it's a stretch, but probably the closest thing that the AF has to offer) is Security Forces - we're the only ones they trust enough to let have guns :)<br />Shouldn't be too hard.
