haeriphos Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Your best bet is to get in touch with your local AMEDD Officer recruiter. My impression is that they're willing to waive a lot of the restrictions for AMEDD candidates, especially prior service. Call your local recruiting office, tell them you're an officer, and ask for the contact info for the healthcare officer recruiter. If you happen to be in MN or WI I can provide you with that info if you PM me (ARNG). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themadmedic Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I am not sure about the blue side of the house, but agree with checking with the AMEDD recruiter. They can waive age up to a point-should be easy with prior service. They do give constructive credit for TIS, both as an officer and as a PA. I believe the formula is 1/2 credit for each. The AMEDD recruiter can set you straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrown88 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 I know this thread is old but does anyone have any contact info for the healthcare recruiters for the air national gaurd or the air force reserves? I am less than a year away from graduation and would like to see what they have available to a non prior like myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with an Engineering Battalion in ARNG, haven't been deployed but can speak of my experiences if you want to message me. JMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
