The New Jersey Army National Guard gives plenty to it's recruits, I mean plenty. You better make sure your **** is packed straight, because the way the economy is they can be very selective *note* very selective, how's you're PT score card? you don't know? your gone. Are you a COLLEGE STUDENT with great grades? if not you're gone. How squared away are you with you're police record and credit score? if not you're gone. You better be a blue chip recruit or you're gone. And remember, no matter what your MOS is, you are always a Soldier first. If you're lucky, and you are selected, get option 4 in your contract (Airborne Wings) .....

or you're always going to regret it.

Depending on the job your experience will differ. Coming from the Marine Corps to the Air national guard was a culture shock. I made the same decision you are making because of my wife. I wish I stayed in the Corps or not even had joined the National Guard to begin with.
