1LT Kevin Chapman3293284<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My question may seem vague so please let me expound more & give you an idea of what I’m trying to articulate. I’m currently attached to an Engineer battalion, I’m planning to contract as a Cadet in the ROTC program & also join the SMP, my plan is to branch 11A in the NG. Would it be possible to gain a transfer to an Infantry unit so I could shadow someone in the Infantry field? Or is it a no go?Is it possible to transfer units as a ROTC Cadet for MOS purposes in the National Guard?2018-01-25T19:01:08-05:001LT Kevin Chapman3293284<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My question may seem vague so please let me expound more & give you an idea of what I’m trying to articulate.

Yes it is possible, but you will have to get with your Guard retention folks.Response by SGM Bill Frazer made Jan 25 at 2018 7:51 PM2018-01-25T19:51:35-05:002018-01-25T19:51:35-05:00SGT David A.

I was in an engineer unit and was commissioned a MS officer?! Your unit affiliation doesn't get you anything, but drill pay!Response by LTC James McElreath made May 31 at 2018 10:21 PM2018-05-31T22:21:12-04:002018-05-31T22:21:12-04:002018-01-25T19:01:08-05:00
