About John Lewis
Expertise
I am a National Guard recruiter and localmarketer, been doing it for five years and am a subject matter expert on qualifications for National Guard and I keep up to date on Regular Army regs and programs. I was in the Navy for 4 years and have 11 years in the Guard. I will not sugar coat my answers to you. They are usually short and to the point. If you need more in depth, ask me. Because each situation is differnt, alot of times you need to actually talk to a recruiter and let them evaluate your situation in person, by looking at your documents, issues etc. If I suggest this, it would be in your best interest to do so. Finally...thank you for your interest in serving this great nation of ours. Very few people can actually make the cut to serve let alone choose to do so. So thank you for wanting to and hopefully you will get a chance. Whatever branch you choose, thank you and good luck.

Experience
11 years Guard experince, combat missions and homeland missions. 5 years recruiting. I have been a platoon sergeant and squad leader. Mentor to new recruiters and recruits.

Education/Credentials
Recruiters course and advanced courses in recruiting

Answer
Every once in a while, they will put a call out looking for certain Jobs.  I take it you were Guard or reserves.  You could contact your state HQ for the Guard and offer it up, they may have use for someone with your back ground, even if it is in a training enviorment.  Otherwise, you get a letter in the mail telling you to report.  It does happen, I know folks who it has happened to.

Thanks for wanting to do more.
