I'm in the process of enlisting with the 20th group in Maryland as an 18echo. I just got off the phone with the recruiter and he's describing the contract to me. He said that I'll pick 3 MOS's with 18e being the first choice, 11b as second, and something else as a third (such as MP).
I have never heard of this picking 3 MOS's before - i thought you can get an MOS guaranteed? Also, do I have to specifically request a REP-63 contract? I was under the impression all SF contracts with the guard are REP-63...
He said he'll get the contract to me by this time tomorrow (hopefully before then). I'll scan it in to my pc and post it on here (with personal info deleted of course) for the BTDT's opinions of what I'm about to sign.
any insight would be helpful.
Thanks
edit: and everything i've heard SF contracts is that you don't enlist directly into an 18 series MOS like my recruiter is saying, but rather you are (in the case of 18x) assigned an MOS in the q-course or (in the case of the ARNG) sign on as an 11x, 31c, or 91w and get the full pipeline in the contract....
