Nothing lax about the National Guard:
* 90% are former AD soldiers
* National Guard makes up 1/3 of current Special Forces strength
* National Guard continues to deploy to others areas of the world in addition to OEF, GWOT commitments in order for AD SF soldiers to have some down time with families. National Guard has one mission, Obey Orders, period.
Now if you think they have not done thier part, I suggest you do your part. Find where the ASVAB test is being taken, maybe its three states away,. I suspect it is given twice a months in learning center in a city near you. Look for other avenues to locate, be creative. Take the test, obtain the results, deliver results to Admin office.
Maybe with a little luck, you too can be the Tm S1 before you make Team Sergeant. Maybe it will happen before another 10 years goes by, or other curve balls start heading your way.
Good luck.
