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.

HELL YEAH!!!

Why not?  If anyone is thinking about joining, why not give a referral to someone?

I am in the Michigan Army National Guard
My MOS include 13P (Field Artillery MLRS) 31B (Military Police).

I work for recruiters in the recruiting office so I can answer just about any question you have about benefits, bonuses, availiable MOSs, etc...

Want to know about the new Active First enlistment option that will net you up to $60,000 in bonuses just for signing up and let you serve up to 48 months on active duty?  I can tell you all about it.

I know for ESAR the prospective enlistment does not have to be from your state.

IM or email!

ETA: Sorry, this post was meant to be a edit.  I got excited!

Nice try, go away . Just kidding, I don't see why not. A lot of people have questions about ROTC too, you probably have the knowledge/experience to handle those.

Whoops, sorry, Air Force experience, Security Forces, Motto: Defensor Fortis, Defenders of the Force. Also, even though one is prior military, the one recruiting him can still get G-RAP credit. I found this out upon enlisting in my Army Guard unit, 133rd Engineer Company, Wyoming ARNG. So, if one wants to know about the Air Force, Air Guard, or Security Forces in particular, steer them my way. I will illuminate them.
