IMHO, the best way for the Guard to get good Detachment Officers would be to recruit them from separating SF CPTs as they leave AD.
Most 18A CPTs would kill to get another several years on an ODA.
YMMV.

An SF Major I had lunch with a few weeks ago said that if he had an option to be honorably discharged after 5 more years on an ODA he would do it (and hes career moving to area commander). It's the reason I'm enlisting and not doing the ROTC program here.
