Question
Is it possable to re-enlist in the Armed Force if some one has a EPTS Discharge? My sepreation code is: JFW and my Reentry Code is: 3. Is it possable if I get a waiver or ask for a "Trial of Duty" that I can go into the Air Force? Does the Air Force allow people with Tourette Syndrome in? I know the Army has people with Tourette Syndrome in their ranks.

Answer
The Problem with the Air Force is that they do not take prior service into the regular airforce. They will the reserve and the Air Guard. as for the torrette Syndrome....I am going to lean towards the answer of no, but I am bit a doctor.... to get the best answer is togo and takt to the recruiter for that particular answer. There is a lot that has changed since I was in recruiting, so the they mah allow more than they did when I was in...

I have spent the past 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, 3 years was assigned as an Enlisted Accessions Recruiter. I have been deployed various times to several locations. If it is a career in the military you are looking for or thinking about I most likely have the answer. I still have contacts with in the recruiting field and if I don't know the answer then I have folks who do where I can find the answer. I am very blunt and straight forward and will make no attempts to BS you. I will give you the best information that I possible can can. If you think that you cant handle the answer that I give you, then don't ask the question...... If you are planning on joining the military, your number 1 decision factor in making this kind of move is that you need to be more concerned about serving your country than your country serving you!! All the benefits are the best that you can find. Education is at a premium right now and its the most rewarding thing that you can do. If I dont answer right away probably means that I am busy, but have patience, I will get to you.
