I have a few questions regarding new reenlistment options. I am in an overstrenght mos (92Y) and was seeking a new mos (68V). My unit is deployed and I am in a stop loss status. I went to see my retention NCO to see if I can change my mos and he put in a offline request. He called me yesterday to tell me that it was approved and that I would have to come in to start the paperwork. The school date is in 2011; however, I wanted to go a little earlier. I read the new policy for reenlistment and it states …
c. Army Training Reenlistment Option (E-3) - Training Processing
Non-deployed Soldiers/Units: All training start dates must be within 12 months of request date; regardless of the type of unit the Soldier is assigned to.
If I sign my contract after that date is it possible to change the school date or is there another way to get around it?
I am in the same boat so if you find out anything let me know. I am reclassing from 13B to 11B. I am deployed, redeploy mid January 2010 but school is not until 2011.
I looked in ATRRS and saw several classes before that with training seats open. Difference is i already signed my contract, so did Reup Officer, even though it is dated for after the new FY (05 OCT 09).
