What are some options for Prior Service on Active Duty? I have a BA, 118 GT, RE1 code, clean record & tons of FF certs. How do I get back in?

Go to go.army.com and find the link for prior service. The HRC business rules for prior service should be posted there. That is what the current policy and options are for prior service based on rank, etc. Bottom line, prior service are restricted to what is dictated by DA/HRC. However, that applies to going back enlisted. OCS may be an option if you are qualified for it. You can find the qualifications for prior service OCS on go.army.com as well. If qualified for OCS, the recruiter will assist you putting the packet together to submit to the USAREC selection board. If the process is still the same, you may have to attend a local board or interview at the Recruiting Battalion first to get the commander's endorsement, then the packet goes to Fort Knox for the quarterly selection board. If you make the selection list, then your recruiter will schedule you to go to MEPS to contract for OCS. The ship date could be anywhere from 30 days to 365 days, depending on training vacancies at OCS. Good Luck
