My paperwork has been submitted. I figured I&#39;d be going to MEPs again but I was told I would renegotiate at Recruiting Battalion in Raleigh (in NC). It seems off.. is this normal?

Also, if you are not presently in the service, how are you a CBRN Specialist? Is that your projected MOS?

Given your vast experience in the Army and USAREC you may wish to listen to the Subject Matter Experts - SME - the Recruiters who actually have experience in this area, as opposed to faceless people on the Internet - most of whom have been retired a decade or two. <br /><br />Reputable information sources, it&#39;s an important part of Critical Thinking, the first class I recommend every college age student take. People you have never met on the internet, who are not current active duty recruiters, are not a reputable source of information<br /><br />Bottom line, you are an adult and are responsible for whatever you sign. Read your contract; they are very clearly written and easy to read. You got a very lucky break being allowed to renegotiate, if you don&#39;t renegotiate, you are still obligated to the contract you originally signed.

Anything and everything beyond those three things is between you, your recruiter, and your selected branch. MEPS doesn’t care if you’re going to be a BB stacker or a linguist. They just care if the i’s are dotted and the t’s are crossed. SFC Private RallyPoint Member Tue, 20 Jul 2021 18:52:07 -0400 2021-07-20T18:52:07-04:00 2021-07-20T18:07:45-04:00
