Don't forget to add me.  I'm an Arizona Army National Guard Military Police E-5.  As you can tell by my username, I have also been a Navy Master at Arms.  If you want some honest answers, shoot me an e:mail.  My experience with the Guard has been less than satisfying.

You really want me to put 'disgruntled E-5' on your descriptor?

Well, National Guard MP was your first mistake  and I have know idea what a "Navy Master at Arms" is.

The Guard has been good to me and had I not liked it, I could have quit after my first enlistment.

I'm over 20 now and will probably go for another three years or so until "I pull the pin".

YMMV

I don't know if I would say disgruntled, more like frustrated.  But, I am more than willing to help answer any questions someone might have.  Hopefully they won't walk into any surprises like I did.  The Guard does things a little different from the reserves.

Sorry to take so long to reply, I was at Drill.

Was the surprise you walked into the 855 "all cool cops" or the 860 "odds'n'ends" MP Company?  Should be lots of openings soon for 11B slots in 1/158 Bushmaster Infantry....  and the Reserve CA guys in Phoenix  are hiring too.

I've got some Soldiers that could use the money more than me, I'd be happy to send referrals down to them.

Quoted:
OK, here's the deal.

Between GRAP and ESAR, every Army soldier and retiree (except for recuiters, as it's their job, sorry!) is eligible for a $2K cheque for any referral who successfully joins the Force. As mentioned in the GRAP thread, there will be an organised list of mentors from which a prospective recruit will select. The plan is that a potential recruit will go via the ArfCommer, who will mentor him through the soldier entry process.

So, we need a list of prospective mentors.

I know some of you already reported in on the other thread, but please sound off again here, together with a couple of "keywords" we can put after your name. For example, I'm an NV Guardsman in a cavalry unit near Reno, fresh from a CalGuard tank unit in Northern California, where I live. Thus, my keywords would be
"Guard, Armor/Cavalry, Northern CA, Northern NV" Thus a recruit could select by branch or geographic area.

Again, between G-RAP and ESAR, almost everyone currently serving appears eligible for this deal, as well as Army retirees.

I am a Recruiter in Alabama National Guard.

I don't want GRAP or ESAR money, and can't get it anyway. But would love to have anyone interested in Special Forces or Aviation in the South Eastern United States referred to me.

I work for the 20th Special Forces GP and 131 Aviation. We also have Infantry, MP, CAV Scouts and every other MOS that any state would have too. But the SF and Aviation are only in certain states.

I was AD before I became a Guard recruiter, and Guard recruiters can actually recruit for the Active Duty now so if nothing else, I have lots of knowledge and am willing to just answer questions for ANYBODY regardless if they join with me or not.

Good to see MN checking in!

I'm a new guy in the Minnesota Air National Guard - Duluth F-16.  If I can help to answer anyone's questions, don't hesitate to drop me a line, preferably via board email.  I just separated from active duty this past July and it's been an interesting transition but so worthwhile.

Good luck if you're considering it.
