I should clarify my statement about not wanting to deal with regulr army. It was one of my options passed along to me to go reg army, then drop my packet a year or more later. I was just looking at the opportunity that gets me back to what I was doing that I loved quicker.

I'm not enrolled in any classes. Currently supporting the wife through her classes. That's one of our benefits we're counting on when I go back is to pass on my gi bill to her and the kids. I will hit the required 6 year mark to transfer those benefits to them after being back 4 months and will transfer them when I re up. She's not a fill in the slot mother by any means. She's actually picked up the reins to being a mother to my son who's five and he adores her. She brings two, two year old twins with her to the table that I've adopted. We both understand I wont be around much but we also unerstand that I need to do what I need to do. We both hold each other up and give one another full support on life decisions. We also live by the feeling that if we are not happy then our children are not going to be happy.

I'm joining the military as a whole for my family. The benefits and opportunities afforded are why WE made the decision for me to go back. SF is where I want to be in that equation and the wife backs it.

EDIT: Taking your guys advice and in contact with NG recruiters to get my facts straight. Thanks for the heads up.
