SPC Victoria Sharp 3779612 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I&#39;m prior service AD Navy and I&#39;m looking to rejoin. The recruiter explained to me that I have to join the reserves first and then transfer to AD. He made it seem like a simple process, but my concern is if I sign a contract with the reserves and then get denied to go AD. I was in the NG for 3 years and the one weekend a month and 2 weeks a year isn&#39;t for me. The recruiter explained that I would just have to go through MEPS and then I would remain an E4 and my MOS would transfer from MP to MA. <br /><br />I&#39;m a little skeptical as to how simple the process sounds VS something that might get me placed in the reserves for 4 years. Any input would be helpful. Thank you. 2018-07-09T17:32:10-04:00 SPC Victoria Sharp 3779612

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You don’t need to go reserves first, not sure why he would tell you that unless there is more to the story.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Not sure about this process but whatever he&#39;s telling you, make sure it&#39;s in writing in your contract.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I seem to recall a govdelivery e-mail a few months back saying that any reserve enlisted who’d been in less than...6 months, I think, could apply for and automatically be accepted on AD. Navy is building up, so I’m really puzzled as to why Reserve then AD. But then, I’m not Human Resources or Recruiting. Wish I could help more
