What does a National Guard soldier need to do in order to become an active duty recruiter for the Army?

You need to transfer to active duty first. You can do this by talking with a recruiter in you area and of course your command because they have to release you. If you are stop lossed it will be difficult. I don't think you can re class or transition to a 79R unless you have been on recruiting duty before. Most of the time you enlist with your current MOS and volunteer for recruiting duty. If you are selected, you still have your primary MOS , but you are on recruiting duty. Good luck and talk to a recruiter they really do know allot!

Oh man... you are mistaken on a lot. First, there is the Army National Guard and there is the Army Reserves. The only other "Guard" is the Air Force National Guard. Assuming you are speaking of the Army only, I will continue. First, there are some key differences in the Guard and Reserves. One is that, in the Guard, you might respond to Natural Disasters and large domestic issues in your state. The other is that you are working for your state and your state only unless you are called to active status for the federal government. In the reserves, you work the same time and work SOLELY for the federal government. In BOTH, you CAN and probably WILL deploy to a foreign country. The National Guard actually deploys more than the Reserves! Here in Afghanistan and in Iraq I have worked with BOTH. We have 2 Reserve units here, both doing 9 months in Afghanistan. A National Guard unit just left. In Iraq, my entire BRIGADE was relieved by a full Brigade of the Pennsylvania National Guard. My brother is in the National Guard and has deployed twice. Once to Afghanistan and once to Iraq. With less than a 12 month break in between. I hope this helps. If I were you, I'd go Guard. The state gives you a little more money. But watch out. You might deploy to Afghanistan. Or Africa! (My brother's Guard unit went to Africa just after he got out. A year after returning from Iraq)

can't go NG to active duty army recruiter as far as I know. You'd have to get moved to active duty, which would have to be for some other reason which would probably require you to do that for a couple years, then as an active duty NCO you can apply as a recruiter.

Why does he not just become a national guard recruiter. That's a full-time position.

first, he has to switch over to active duty, or active reserve duty. get released from his National Guard Unit. the next issue will be his rank or job. normally you have to be at least a E-5/Sgt to become a recruiter. see the link I am giving you to fill out the paperwork to request becoming a recruiter:

The first thing he has to do is become regular Army. Then he can work on the rest of what needs to be done.

He has to be really good at talking to people, he has to be born to do it, second he has to kiss but like no other and suck up to all his supperior officers. He shouldn't have joined the army though they can and will screw him over.

he has to take it to someone higher in power, i dont think a soldier can transfer you, maybe the person in charge of him can, tell him to talk to his boss

make sure you play fair no matter what the upper guys tell you...

dont know but this question deserves a STAR!!!

good luck on your paperwork
