As for having a say as to where you go, unless you can get it in the contract you&#39;ll be needs of the Army. Also, you need to be prepared to be told that you may have to be reduced a grade. Not saying it&#39;s automatic that you lose a rank, but the possibility is there. Regardless, in the end you need to do what&#39;s best for you and fight for what you want. Go talk to a Recruiter and see what is what.

You have to evaluate why you left and why you would go back. The answer lays in the middle.
