Time for a switch..

the only way he can do that is if I'm Airborne...which I'm not. Got some work to do.

Considering how many slots are WASTED every year, I don't see why that couldn't be placed into a contract. Also, we have at least one flight medic on this board currently suffering, I mean serving with 1st Cav...and I don't think he's ever been to jump school. Hmm, I may hit him up.
 
@DoctaJ Our medic returned my email. He'll respond with more when he has more time, but if you had the F2 or F3 ASI you would be in great shape. As is, what you're seeking isn't impossible, but more difficult.

The bit about being airborne is false. Your recruiter is either lying or incompetent.

Out of curiosity, did you go to this page?

Okay, I heard back from him. In a nutshell: You'll have to go active and then drop a 4187. He's never heard of anyone contracting for flight medic. He was a Guard medic who went active and had to do his time as a medic before going over to aviation.

Also, maybe reach out to the link above and see if they have anything to say. Whatever path you decide, getting there isn't going to be easy.

Thanks for the info. I wouldn't want it to be easy. The only thing I've found to be both easy and rewarding is an "easy" girl. And that's only rewarding for about an hour and a half.
 
C'mon, you know a resume/ 201 file doesn't always matter in the Guard. Some staes are better than others about it, but when it comes to limited slots in certain units...

During my last trip to Iraq (2011) the NG Dustoff guys (Nebraska NG I believe) in Mosul tried hard to recruit me away from 20th Group. In fact it was flying whit them on missions that I received my novice aircrew wings. I have also talked to the guys in the GANG about slots and there are/were openings there for me as well.

That being said, aside from being an 18D I am a CCEMT-P and flew in the civilian world for a number of years prior to the military so that may be a factor.

D: If you are interested I would be glad to make a couple personal calls for you to the guys in GA. Let me know...

I am absolutely interested. If I am the D you are referring to.
 
Why would you start now? Who are you and how did you hack amlove21's account?

Listen, I can be somewhat professional, dickbanger.
His better half was in the room.
She is WAY better than half, and no, she wasnt.
Hurtful, sheep shagger. Hurtful.
No. A tin of hair product.
I want to be mad at this, but I just cant. I mean, I wouldn't say I love hair product- but- nevermind.
