You are stuck.The only way to get out would be a discharge. But if that happened, I doubt you would get any money for school.........

Well initially two yr contracts are continually coaching + two years.. so you can move to elementary coaching for nine weeks after which one other couple months on your MOS institution and after that your 2 years start from that factor. I was once within the recruiters workplace the opposite day on their are living laptop application and it has the entire present contracts they may be able to reserve for you.. and correct now you almost are not able to get a 2 yr deal. The shortest duration they appear to be delivering presently is 3 years. With the shorter contracts you're required to enter an MOS that has a shorter duration institution and is in prime call for. You probably in a position to head airborne however they could say whatever at final minute like oh yeah in case you desire to do that you need to prolong your enlistment two years or a few bs.... Do no longer take matters individuals say on right here as truth due to the fact individuals who're pronouncing they've been within the carrier and the whole lot were giving fully fake solutions. And in case you ever do become a member of ensure the whole lot you may have been provided is written legibility on your agreement earlier than you signal.. This manner if you're advised you are going to be a sniper it larger say assured sniper in your agreement, identical with the three years and any bonus, university cash or different incentive promised.. NEVER believe a recruiter .. i've talked to over 10 one-of-a-kind ones in beyond couple months and each unmarried one has advised me a minimum of one lie or entire exaggeration approximately somethin or one other..

Are you 6 years from retirement? or 6 left on your current contract? Are you and Enlisted, Officer, or Warrant? These all have different paths you can choose from on how you do things. The best thing I can tell you is go talk to a Recruiting and Retention NCO. I believe you can ETS, do your 2 years and Re-enlist, you will not lose anything towards retirement. Also you might look into the National Guard and Reserve, your Active time and Rank will go with you and you can take a 2 year sabbatical from the guard and reserve.

You should ask your career guidance officer and a Peace Corps recruiter. My guess is no, because it would look too much like you were using the PCV stint to gather military intelligence - especially if you ask lots of questions for your dissertation.

Impossible im afraid. If you want to get out, you have to serve out your term. (You must be new to the army?:)) And a two year leave? HAH! That'll be like, thirty years worth of work! (Not realoly, but you get the idea)
