Your lighting is so calmning for watching your videos at night. They're also very official I don't think you get told enough. It's actually really cool
I just got offered an AGR (reserve) position (officer) I want to stay in my state HOR can I go NG AGR? or once in AGR Reserve I am stuck in that position?
I hear that and thank you so much for the feedback! Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼 Good luck in your decision making process!
Thank You For YOUR SERVICE, and SHARING this WONDERFUL INFORMATION! I ship for basic October 31st South Carolina Fort Jackson! Definitely wrote down all of what was said and will use this knowledge to explore my options even better!!! THIS IS THE BEST 10 STAR VIDEO HANDS DOWN!
Wow, thank you so much for your support and kind words. I truly appreciate the feedback! Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼 Good luck and best wishes in Training! 💪🏼 Make the best of it, have fun and do your best!
I already did 5yrs active duty,currently finishing off the next 3yrs in the reserves. To each their own but once im done, im done for good. But for someone who enjoys it or this steady check n benefits can help someone get out of a bad situation no shame. Do what you gotta do.
what my recruiter told me was that unless you have an esstential job something administrative or maybe a mechanic that it was gonna be extremely hard to get. I was applying for 31B - Military Police
Cool, man. One thing that needs to be addressed as far as the aviation branch goes is the fact that we have what's known as AFTPs is in the Guard/Reserve. It stands for "Additional Flight Training Period" You can sign up for them during the week and go fly on a day outide of drill. You log hours, get paid, and still get to hang out with your friends. But you have to be a Crew Chief. Not saying that maintenance Co. wouldn't let you come in, you just don't fly.
I'm talking to a recruiter right now about joining what step/ questions i can ask to make sure I'm steeered into this direction because i want to be active in the guard as well & not just be sitting around waiting
I ship out October 11th, after Basic and AIT It will take me a while until I get my paramedic job in the civilian side. That’s why I’m interested in AGR.
ADOS Honor Guard SGT (ARNG) here. Good info here in the video! Lol our techs and Agr/ados admin staff work Tue-Fri with holidays off. Pretty jealous lol
#teamSwartz Sargent thanks for all the great content! You have helped me alot with my national guard career and it's just started. Really appreciate it
When I was in, the AGR guys had an issue with promotions after E5. I never knew if it was point requirements but our unit 42B's needed well over 700 points. Before the board I think I had only a tick over 450, so I feel bad for those who are studs but can't grab an E6 slot.
So far I’ve gone e4 through e7 with no issues. Points and promotion boards vary on one’s performance and work ethic. The individual makes or breaks their own career. E8 or higher is where it becomes more competitive in my opinion. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
While it shouldn't matter, I had a letter of recommendation from our SGM in my promotion packet. I scored pretty high at the board even though I flubbed up the NCO Creed a tad bit. It really may be a "who you know" but not necessarily.
I honestly had no clue you could full time in guard or reserves. Thought that was what active duty was for lol. As always loved the video and thanks for educating me lmao! #TeamSwartz
Great video very informative I’ve been looking for a video like this for a while to explain all these different orders. I just started as a federal technician a few weeks ago to
@@TEAMSWARTZ SFC Swartz, is it easy to transfer unit station closer to my hometown when I just finished my AIT cuz I supposed to be stationed at MA but I live in New Hampshire, Im currently PFC in Army Reserve and also I wonder if I can do ARG and do ROTC program at the same time
@@texanman1998 You’ll have to ask your Reserve unit honestly. They’ll have to find you a vacancy for your MOS. Good luck! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
My husband is thinking of transferring from active duty army to army national guard. But he’s afraid if he doesn’t work full time he won’t be able to support us or that we won’t be able to “survive outside active duty”. He’s currently a Staff Sergeant 13B . Any tips or advice? He’s kind of losing his mind thinking it might be impossible to get out of AD with kids😅
Have him watch this video. Recruiting is always hiring. Most states are good to work for if you’re successful and put in the work. Can’t guarantee he’ll get hired but depending on how flexible he is he could find something. Good luck and best wishes! Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼

My son is 10 years old and I'm about to enlist for the Army Reserve. Can I put my son as a dependent even if I pay child support? Would it affect him mentally not seeing me on a daily basis while I'm in bootcamp and AIT? Is it worth it at this stage of my life? Honest questions to anyone that can help please 🙏
Yes you can and you will add him as dependent and enroll him in the DEERS. As far as you, is it worth it? Depends on how old you are. If you are 30 or younger, it will be worth it. Yes you will be gone for about six months for boot camp and AIT. Overall, it will be good for you and your son.
Yes to all your questions. You cannot control what will affect your child as you subject yourself to the control of others. You will learn to handle your issues as they come up. They’ll straighten you up or screw you up. That depends on how you handle yourself. Either way it’ll be a good experience for you. Never stop learning.
It’s only worth it if you think it is and I will always say 99% of the time that it’s worth it. You’ll have to list your son due to the fact you’re paying child support and if not married, you’ll be required to obtain a Family Care Plan because you’re a Single Parent. At this point I’m sure your recruiter has informed you of this. Being 10yro im sure your son will be fine. My daughter was fine when I completed the Drill Sergeant Academy and she was 5yro at the time. How you handle it is how you talk to yourself and how you react and handle your emotions. As for home sickness I’ve done two videos that will help you transition through the initial training part of your process: BEST WAYS TO PREPARE FOR BASIC TRAINING: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vqLsMq6IKaQ.html And an older video on the topic of homesickness: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--DOaSunEtJw.html Good Luck in MEPS and may the MEPS Gods forever, be in your favor! 💯 Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
@Team_Swartz I’m currently in the Army ROTC and love it!!! I want start in the guard and was hoping to secure a full time position after I graduate. With my MOS being hopefully Finance or Supply Chain. Any additional advice for this path? For a full time NG, It seems like AGR is very selective
Officers don’t get MOS’s. They branch into a specific field and for your case, you’re interested in Finance Corps or Supply Corps. Full time jobs within the Guard/Reserve as officers are even more limited compared to the enlisted ranks. Good luck in everything you do! Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
@@TEAMSWARTZ You've done more for National Guard and Army recruiting then anyone IMHO. My friend and I were discussing AGR and boom! SFC has a video on it. 🙂 SEO is simple. Create content people have questions on. Military recruiting in all branches has spent millions and still can't do this lol.
Ik this is a old video but i do have a question about AGR Im about to go in senior year and do rotc and have been doing it since freshman year and have the qualification to become a E3 when i enlist and after training Would i have a better shot for AGR becuase of that or no Thank u for your time
Not really but as described in the video, most AGR slots require you to be e4 and above unless otherwise stated on the job listing. Thank you for watching and stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
@@TEAMSWARTZ I never said thank you from the last live video, just want to thank you for answering my question, all of the videos you've made, and all of your time making them. I am 36 years old and I have my first appointment with a recruiter tomorrow. Bringing documents with me and my knowledge I gained because of you. Take care! 🤙🙏 #TEAMSWARTZ #THANKFUL
Hello Mr Swartz, Im in the process now and just passed my physical and medical examinations at meps. I also scored a 70 on the asvab, with a 110 gt score. I wanted to go army active duty but i’ve got too much on my plate and have since been leaning towards the reserves. The main problem for me is im not interested in anything outside of combat MOS, i prefer 11B but will be content with any combat position at this point, which isnt offered in the reserves. So my question to you is can i be a 11b in the national guard with part time duties similar to the reserves i.e., can i meet once a month like the reserves?
Correct. 11B and all combat roles are in the Guard. GUARD vs RESERVE/SIMILARITIES+DIFFERENCES VIDEO: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tiMVDM6FzRY.html Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
Hi, I’m joining the National Guard as 15t so would most of my “full time” jobs be involved with civilian aspect you were talking about, or could I also qualify for ADOS and ARG?
@@Dampomicpic77 I would assume 15T opportunities if any would be more than likely a mil-tech position. The rest of the opportunities would be as described 🙏🏽
Ok quick questions. I was released under a 5-17 Re-3 I do need a medical waiver for my eyesight always have however I was released for Anxiety and ptsd however I have not had a Dr appointment or episode in over 7 years. Nor do I take meds. Do you think I can re join
Not sure but if you get updated evaluations/tests and an all clear letter from those specialists it’s possible you can complete a medical exam and hopefully recommended for a waiver. And then possibly approved. Good Luck in MEPS and may the MEPS Gods forever, be in your favor! 💯 Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
AGR is T32 most of the time but sometimes ADOS if they wanna try you out to see how you do. Counter Drug is ADOS. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
I’m 38, will the guard take me? I want to do active duty. Will it break me to be around 20 year olds? Will traffic violations affect my recruitment process?
Yes, with a waiver and as long as your traffic violations are closed or settled… good to go. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
Hi Good day it is possible to join national guard just to Attend Weekend Drill only? Because this time I cant do it to BootCamp because i have 2kids with me, I cant do it for 5 mos in Bootcamp.. Im planning to join national guard Im afraid to lose the Opportunity because Im 35 yrs old now..Please advise 🙏🏻
Age waiver at or above 35yro is easy but you have no choice. If you want to serve, everyone completes BCT/AIT, and deployments in the future to include state missions if you go guard. I don’t believe you can or able to do guard based on your requirement… Good luck in your decision making process!
Am I allowed to be stationed somewhere out of the country in the national guard? I wanna be able to do this when I get out of basic and AIT. (going in as a 92y)
You can def do AGR providing you’re otherwise eligible for the AGR Position and hired. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
Search n Rescue is for specific people trained in it. 19D is a good MOS but understand that for state activations/missions are 99% not MOS(job) specific.

I'm currently active duty and there is a possibility I will be getting out at 12 years. What is the possibility of transitioning into an AGR position in the guard right after ETS from Active duty?
You can apply for AGR positions within the state you’re transitioning to but you’ll have to understand, you have to join first part time and then drop your AGR Packet. I recruited a Reserve Soldier who at the time was actively serving as an instructor for deploying units and she interviewed for Recruiting. I contracted her into the Guard and then because she was approved for the AGR Recruiting position, shortly thereafter dropped her AGR packet. Within 30-45 days she began working. It would work pretty similar to this if that’s your intent… Thank you for watching and stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
Can you speak to how you get an agr position especially as a recruiter? I am currently MDay. I interviewed for an AGR position and was the runner up. I’m recently saw a National Guard recruiter position that is currently open. I want to myself so appealing that they can’t say no this time.
I was in the Marines active duty for 4 years and now getting my paperwork together for Texas national guard.. is it hard to get an overseas deployment?
@@miguelgumulak8084 I don’t have those statistics but if you’re your best version and your work ethic is bar none… You’ll remain a competitive and in a better position to be hired or accepted. You control your output and perception from others. Good luck and best wishes! Thank you for watching and stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
As for NY, it’s based on the website listing those opportunities. Checkout outs and see how your state lists theirs… Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
I am transitioning from Active to National guard and was offered to go recruiting because they need AGR in my state and I’m a Sgt with ALC. should I take it. Just looking for different looks and opinions
It’s a better quality of life being AGR in the Guard compared to regular active duty. No CQ/Staff Duty BS, etc… Do your job and that’s it. If you’re successful you’re in charge of your schedule and it’s pretty flexible. I think it’s worth checking out. Try and talk to recruiters in the area for the vibe/culture. If it’s in GA I’d say he’ll no lol. They going through some crazy toxic stuff at the moment… don’t touch that state with a 10ft poll. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
@@TEAMSWARTZ always will promote a battle channels when they give really good information, it’s in Texas what I got offered. I just want to be there for my 2 little ones more often. I missed a lot of my oldest life with deployments and everyone tells me to do it because it’s a once in a lifetime chance. Thank you for the info.
The video is all about the possibilities of doing more than one weekend per month. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼
They may offer a video or telephonic interview. You’ll have to enlist before the AGR office can accept your application. Thank you so very much for watching this video and I hope you stay blessed! 🇺🇸🙏🏼

Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately You’ll need to go through immigration to obtain a Green Card (permanent resident card) and I cannot help in anyway. I cannot give a letter inviting you, sponsoring you or letter of intent. I don’t know the process so I’d suggest starting online or the closest US Embassy. Once you have that, this could be an option for you but not until then. Good luck and stay blessed!
