If you had a five level AFSC years ago but have been separated for a long time, do you have to repeat tech school to go back in Air Guard?

Awesome, thanks. I should be thankful ... by comparison, the Army says I have to go to basic again!

That is a change, I did Navy 82 - 87. When into the Army Guard in 1997, I process through meps for my physical, but did not have to go to basic. In 1999, I switched over to the Air Guard, and still no basic again. The one thing that you want to remember is that your time in rate will start over. So, you will have to do your 2 years from you date of enlistment into the Guard. The unit training office will go over the training requirements for you AFSC and if you do not meet the current requirement in the training record, then you would have to go back to a 1 level and attend A school. Honestly, it will benefit both you and the command to have you go to 3 level school. No shame, when I went in 2000, there were several MSgt that were cross training and in my class.
