What experiences have you had with the retiree recall program?

I submitted a retiree recall application for an active duty tour on Army Tour of Duty. I never expected to get approved but that is what happened. I would like to know what issues anyone faced going from the retired rolls back to active duty and what I can expect for the process.

Say what? That is actually a thing? Good luck and i am pretty sure you should play the lottery with luck like that.

COL Jon Thompson maybe it's the Stockholm Syndrome kicking in but please keep us posted on how it goes. I have been considering doing the same.

I entered the retiree recall program in 2009 after my MRD. Except for the two weeks at Ft Jackson to “Re-Green”, there was no difference from my previous assignment. The RR is for each specific job, as far as I know.

How did you get access to MOBCOP? It appears it's only available through government computers.
