Not quite sure your family PCSs with you, although I have seen it both ways. I've seen Officer Track also go SFAS then direct to SFOQC. If you have a language (including if you took it in high school and/or college) and can test out you will get credit.

Depending on your SERE level training (Brunswick?) you can petition USAJFKSWCS for constructive credit for that as well (although there may be some form of abbreviated or full-length Camp Slappy you will have to attend).

Be prepared to do a long Active Duty for Training to get through the pipeline. One friend of my brother's Oakland police academy class enlisted for the Full Monty as a California Guardsman under REP-63 for Infantry One Station Unit Training (OSUT), jump school, SOPC, SFAS, SFQC, Camp Slappy, language, and a year in Afghanistan. When he got back his wife said that was enough and he is back to policing.

When I was a Guardsman in Texas in a Ranger LRRP Company we had quite a few guys that commuted by air to drill. One of my SFQC classmates got out as a Major, joined US Customs, and is now a big deal in both the Guard as a Group DCO and in Customs.
