Hey all,
I am writing because I have a question about Active Duty/Reserves/National Guard. I am currently a 4 year AROTC scholarship winner and a freshman. I have always wanted to go active duty but I am having some second thoughts due to my desire to succeed in the corporate world. I really want to still be apart of the Army, and I am thankful that I can choose to go to the Reserve or National Guard after college. First of all, is it hard to go Guard or Reserve after graduating AROTC? Or will they make me go active? Also, is it common for Reserve and NG soldiers to be called to active duty? I am a little confused on this process, and am not sure how likely it is to get called to Active Duty from the Reserves or NG. Thank you.
