What's wrong with fulfilling the promise of service you made to the Army while working and studying your ass off in the pursuit of whatever goal you're after? Are you in your 40s with no time to spare?
With the Armys goal of downsizing its force, I wouldn't feel comfortable waiting until 3 months prior to my ETS to say "Hey wait, I want to stay in. Along with that I want a new MOS." The reason those numbers fall together is from my original MOS contract of 4 years and being reclassed to a 6 year MOS contract.

Im also a do now type of person. If I want something I set my sights on it, research prepare and go after. I mentioned it before, the recruiter during my brief advised us if this is something we really want to pursue go now. I've been researching for over 6 months now, after my brief last month I was convinced this is what I want to go out for.
