With the political environment that we are currently facing, and the stories of what happening to current service members would returning to service be worth it?
I feel very uneasy about the future of the economy and want to secure a livelihood for my family, i know the army would provide that, but is it worth serving under this administration?

Politics are a cycle. Sometimes the leaders are fo the left and sometimes the right.

If you want to serve don’t base it on who is in the White House because it changes. Make the decision off of your goals and your family situation. That’s what matters most

I'm curious. What has been happening to current service members that is making you second guess getting back in? I'm also curious about something else. Now, your profile doesn't show dates of service....which by and by there is nothing wrong with that....but, considering that a standard contract is either a 3 or 4 year hitch for AD....did you get in trouble and lose rank or get in trouble and never made it to SPC? The reason why I ask is because I am trying to see if we can eliminate a possible future post from you asking about getting in with an RE-2 thru 4...or a post about getting the Discharge Type upgraded.

What stories???? You do know the Army made 102% of their retention quota for the year. That drops prior service to almost 0% chance til next FY. Plus they have tightened up the criteria for re-enlistment.
