GOOD JOB BUCK!
However, when you talked about wanting to go back through selection, I began worrying about your sanity. (I remember 3 weeks of me getting my ass handed to me).
Good luck bro

Lol, funny thing is, I would actually not mind it. I remember when I was an assessor out at MacKall there was a Major who went through a class, if I remember right he was like 43, 44 or so, the old crusty bastard made it too.

I am deserving of no praise, I actually feel like I've wasted 9 years after getting out, and not doing this sooner. Leave the praise for the ones who didn't, or won't make it home, as I am happy as hell at the chance to help.... enough said.

Buck - how old are you? Are you retruning with your current rank? When do you drop the WO packet?

Well I go back in as an E-6, slotted in a Senior Bravo slot. Been to ANOC and O&I. Smag says I should make the cutoff and points for this years board, which he is saying is Feb, so I should make E-7 this year, we'll see. I would love to go WO, we'll see which the company needs more, I heard they are really light on Bravos, which blew my mind

Congratulations, Buck! I'll miss your cracked sense of humor on here, but will take comfort in knowing your team will be highly entertained. 
Thank you in advance for your service. All the best to you and those you leave behind.

Not only the company, but the Battalion as well. The route you're taking is not a bad path, but I would most curtainly investigate the WO option.
With the break in service you've had, re-training will be a hurdle, but you'll do well. Obtaining the added value of the WO route will only make you more valuable to a team and the old man BN Cdr, who's probably looking for some salty dudes.
Take care brother...
