Not a QP, but I spent the day at MEPS and am one waiver shy of being an NQP REP-63 with B/2/20. They have try-outs for folks in-service who want to join them; the last one was this month, I don't know when the next one will be (October?). If you like, I can give you a contact number for their recruiter and you can get the skinny from him.

Man that's a bummer, I feel for you. Virginia tried to screw me like that. That was when they still had the company at AP Hill, the recruiter told me I had to go to a regular unit first, then volunteer for SF and that it was the same in the other states. Total lie. Apparently Virginia did have a rule against SF REP-63s, but Maryland was no problem. Luckily I found out before I handed in the paper work at MEPS in Richmond, it was all signed and ready to go for 12B when I found out he had lied to me. PM if you have questions about B/2/20, I don't know much about the company in NC, a couple of the guys from that unit were instructors in the delta course and were defintely good dudes. Good luck!

I am an Air Force reservist who is looking to transfer into the 20th. I have been in contact with MSGT Aaron Edwards and have the information sheet filled out and my copies of paper work ready to go. I just want to make sure that I'm dealing with the correct person, especially with the sensitive personal information I'm sending. I'm sure it sounds a little paranoid but you can't be too careful when it comes to personal security.

Thanks

MSG E is the person to talk to. I can personally name 3 guys from this board alone he has enlisted into 20th Group. He will take care of you.

Thanks for the reassurance, Surgicalcric. I was looking at this 14 page document that had everything necessary to more than just steal my identity, when I asked myself "how hard would it be to clone an official looking e-mail server?"
Once again, this board has provided me with info I could not have gotten anywhere else.

I can further assure you that MSG Edwards is the guy you need to be talking to. I recruit for A 2-20th SFG (Illinois and surrounding) and owe several enlistments to MSG E. If you contact him and live near Illinois, I'll be the guy giving you a call. Trust that your information is secure if you are giving it to him.
