Question about joining airforce reserves. Am I able to do my monthly training at my local AF base?

Sorry if I sound grumpy. It's been a rough day.

You'll work with lots of people in your reserve unit and the Wing that have positions in the civilian sector. If you do a good job in the reserve, your unit members (Wingmen) will see this and they will like to see you hired within their civilian organizations (which are always looking for good talent). Also, you'll receive training, certifications, and experience in the Reserve that will add value to you within the civilian workplace. Bottom line is do a good job in the Reserve. You'll advance there and gain great friends and valuable (and deserved) professional contacts as well. The key here is to be dedicated to the Air Force Core Values and do a good job in the AF and good things will follow that.

on future resume's she can just not mention the re-enlistment thing.
