Join ANG or Reserves during AD OTS or pilot training

[Guardian]

Anyone ever done this? I’ve heard rumors it’s a thing but have zero experience or knowledge about it. Guess you could say I’m ignorant. Any one heard or experienced it or know of someone who has?

AFAIK, once you start on AD, you are on AD.  Highly doubtful that they will let you off your ADSC (for TFOTS) to join the ARC side.

There are posts in the forum about people who have done this.

I searched. Couldn’t find anything

I personally have never seen it done and wouldn’t count on it. But it is the ANG and just about anything is possible.

Here’s one, probably others. I find Google site search works better than the organic search here. 

 

I saw this happen once in 2008ish.  The impression I got is that it takes a lot of wheeling and dealing, unit support, and probably a SECAF signature.  But worth it if you want it.
