Question
My name is Lissa Hart, I was enrolled in the Air Forces DEP set to leave dec
31st of last year when an unexpected something happened and had to call my
recruiter to let me out of my obligation. My husband is a disabled veteran and
had been hospitalized three times in two months and had to go back. He has
been cleared from the docters and I have his docters release note saying it is
okay for me to go back in to the process of starting. My question is will i run
into any problems with my recruiters commanding officers letting me back in
even though all my bases are covered.

Answer
Lissa,

I dont see any problems arising from you returning to the application process. The only thing that may conflict is that any investigations like Credit check and that sort of thing may have to be re accomplished. If they gave you a go...Get going!! Good Luck!!

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.
