It is best to speak to an Army Reserve Recruiter who can give you the details on what you want to know. However, the Reserves do help with schooling, you do not pay to join the Reserves, you get paid (you volunteer to be a Reservist, go through the same training as the Regular Army, attend drill once a month and Annual Training two weeks a year), and depending on the different units in your areas and what kind of jobs you want training in will depend on what unit you end up serving with.

Active Guard/Reserve (AGR) are National Guard or Reserve members of the Selected Reserve who are ordered to active duty or full-time National Guard duty for the purpose of organizing, administering, recruiting, instructing, or training the reserve component units.\n\nBUT... in order to be eligible for this program, you must be discharged from your component of the Army, Army Reserve or Army National Guard and you need to be at least a SPC to be eligible. \n\nCheck out the specifics about ARG with your state's National Guard, but to my knowledge, recruits are not eligible for this program...

You cannot have a go-between. If you want to enlist in the British Armed forces (British Army, Royal Air Force or Royal Navy) then you need to go to a Armed Forced Recruiting office. You will be interviewed by a recruiting Serjeant and if deemed suitable you will have to undergo various written tests at a recruiting office. After this for men and women joining the Army you then have a "sponsoring regiment" who you will join after completion of basic training with the Army Training Regiment at one of the basic training depots such as Pirbright or Deepcut. After basic training you move to your regiment and complete your training in the specialist role such as Infantry, Engineers, Artillery etc.\n\nCheck out the service website for the nearest recruiting office or to talk online with a recruiting officer:\n\nhttp://www.armyjobs.mod.uk/\nhttp://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/server.php?show=nav.4003\nhttp://www.rafcareers.com/

for starters, to be a chaplain you have to have a degree in theology and while in college you have the option to go through rotc.  or you can enlist and be a chaplain's assistant, learn the ropes and what's required and then go through ocs.  which, in my personal opinion will make you a better officer, knowing what the enlisted men go through and deal with and so on.  most reserve and guard chaplains, are also ministers on the civilian side.  its not a requirement, but most are.  to forewarn you though, as a reserve or guard chaplain, you are subject to be called up to fill duties at a stateside base, depending on what denomination you pursue. what i mean that is if 2 or 3 chaplains are moved to another post or if they are deployed to iraq or something, someone needs to fill in for them.   but most generally, unless you take an agr (active guard and reserve) position, it's only one weekend a month 2 weeks a year. i hope that helped and here are a couple links to check out for chaplain and chaplain's assistant.  hope this helps.  good luck and god bless

I have a close friend who served in Active Air Force, then went to the Air Force Reserves, and now is in the Air Guards.  They are currently in the VA ANG.\n\nI was in the NC ANG, went Active Duty Air Force, and now in the Air Force Reserves.\n\nIt really depends on you and your goals.\n\nMy friend was originallyin the NY ANG, transferred to CA ANG, and moved back to their home in VA ANG.\n\nIn active duty, you're EPRs, test scores, medals counts toward making rank.  A large portion of making rank is based on you.  In the ANG/Reserves, you make rank by meeting a board, but your rank is also determine by how high your slot goes.  So for example, you may sign up of ANG, and guarantee to make it to SSgt, but after that it depends on your slot.\n\nWhen my friend went to the Guards, he was a SrA on Active Duty.  He was give a promotion to SSgt with a TSgt slot, which means if didn't change jobs or moved out to another base or out-of-state and no one retired by the time he was to retire, the highest rank he would make is TSgt.\n\nWhen his moved him to CA, he had to request a transfer from NY ANG to CA ANG.  His job was available and he gain a MSgt slot.  But then, he decided to moved to VA to be closer to family, and he lost his MSgt slot for another TSgt slot.\n\nThe ANG is run and mostly funded by the state.  So based on budget and projections, your slot differs.\n\nI, on the other hand, was a SSgt in Active Duty Air Force.  When I went to the Reserves, I picked up a MSgt slot.  So no matter where I go (because the Reserves is federally run), my slot goes with me.  I've moved twice since being in the Reserves.  Plus, unlike ANG, I can request TDYs up 365 days if I wanted (which is like being on active duty including the pay.)\n\nI like this feature.  Because I for some reason I get laid off or company closes, I can asked the AF Reserves for a temp job, 'til I find another civilian job.\n\nI like the ANG because some states have more educational benefits than the Reserves.\n\nSo you have look some these questions:\n  Do I want to be here all my life?\n  What job do I want in ANG/Reserves?\n  What are my short term and long term goals?\n  Do plan to be with the company I'm working with now?\n  What are my educational goals?\n\nStuff like that.  Look at all your options.  (I personally like the Reserves, my friend has nothing say bad/good about ANG.)

Go to www.house.gov, or www.senate.gov, to contact your elected representatives or senators.  They can help you, but I warn you, they may send your request to the U.S. Army.  It's hard to say how long it will be before the Army will provide you the answer you need.

Talk to a recruiter. You attend college, but have to spend extra time in NROTC activities and courses while attending normal classes. After you graduate, you become an officer and serve a couple more years. \nYou stay in school during the NROTC program and are not sent off to a war if there is a war going on.

So far as I can remember when going through the recruiting process, you need to be a permanent resident to join the Reserves, but I think you must be a citizen to join the Regular Force.
