"1LT 15B in AH-64D" wrote in message
om...
I am a 1LT in the Army National Guard, an Aviator, and I would like to
go on active duty. I have done some research and my options are to
apply to the Active Guard and Reserve or enter as a warrant. I have
been surrounded by warrants and I like them and there responsibilities
are real important and it would be a great honor to be counted in
their ranks. I cannot find out if I have to go to WOC school or not.
I have been to Federal OCS at Benning and a Federal Law Enforcement
Academy. I am interested in finding out if I have to attend yet
another candidate school. I hear it both ways but no AR has been
pointed out that states the facts definitively. Thanks for your help.

I believe what you would have to do is seek a "determination in grade",
which balances your qualifications/schools against regulatory requirments to
determine your qualification to serve at a lower grade. One oiece of
advice--don't let *anyone* talk you into resigning your commission prior to
getting a firm determination in writing, since you can only resign once, the
it is most definitely "finis". Being as CW2 and above are now considered
commissioned officers, IIRC, you may not even have to resign your
commission. Have you thought of just submitting a 4187 requesting assignment
to active duty?
