I have a question for those that went back in the service or thought about getting back in.
So, I currently have 4 years on as a LEO. I'm not looking to retire for another 21 or 22 years. With my previous military time I will retire from the military before I retire as a LEO. My main reason for wanting to get back in is a little extra in my pocket, free tuition to finish college, retirement, & health ins, plus I can roll over what's left of my GI bill to my kids for when they go to college. My current employer's retirement plan is a little uncertain at times and the health plan sucks and isn't getting any better.
I've been talking with a National Guard recruiter and have everything lined up. The only thing keeping me from raising my right hand is my wife. We've tried talking it over, I've prayed about it, and she's got her heels dug in. Won't budge.
So... My question is this:
Have any of you that are married ever tried getting back in the service? What has been the outcome?
