I agree with MSgt David Hoffman. I would check with the payroll office to make sure that the 14 year figure is correct, and if not, have it corrected. <br /><br />The military service obligation is eight years. The Army National Guard offers three, four, six or eight years active Guard enlistment options with the balance of the time spent in the Individual Ready Reserves (non-drill status), or Inactive National Guard.

For final out papers if they were working up retirement papers you would be fighting with them trying to prove you served trust me. When it comes to retirement its an up hill fight. If you plan on staying until then keep that paper work it will come in handy later.

So, you spent 6 years as a M-Day Solider, then 19 months (1.5) years in IRR statutes. This gives you 7.5 years towards your MSO. Now, you re-enlist and serve another 6 years, giving you a total Time In Service (TIS) of 13.5 years (oh, and 1 month). So, to answer your question, you are closer to 14 years of service for TIS (pay purposes). <br /><br />Now, I have been out awhile, so I might be fuzzy on the rounding up procedures. <br /><br /><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="1332311" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/1332311-13m-mlrs-himars-crewmember">SGT Private RallyPoint Member</a> check your RPAM and make sure your dates and codes are correct fro time served.
