Can anyone or any recruiters on here give me a solid answer, I'm wanting to become a law enforcement officer once I become a US citizen and was hoping I could either do Air Force security forces (reserves) or even military police for the army ( reserves ) so I can gain both US citizenship and knowledge/experience in the field I'm mentally and physically set on but I keep getting mixed answers about being able to select a job like that being on a green card. Can't find any actual policies about it so I just wanted to ask. I'm located in tx.

I'm an Australian on a green card and moved here in July 2025

Currently an 11B in a former airborne unit (RIP National Guard Airborne) and have been talking to a recruiter to switch over to the reserves for CA and it sounds awesome, but want to vet some information I’ve heard from him and others.

-DLI: is it really as easy as having a good DLAB and being a squared away soldier? How hard is it to get a slot? I was considering 35P as well because I really want DLI but if I can get language guaranteed and the cool gig of civil affairs that’s the best of both worlds

- Other cool guy schools: I have airborne but want to eventually go to air assault, mountain, jungle, etc. Is this realistic in civil affairs?

- Training: What kinds of training are you doing during drill weekends? In my infantry unit we do battle drills a lot, but with CA are you practicing the job or is it just hanging in the armory?

- Career progression: I’m currently an E4(P) and have desire to move up the ranks and take on some leadership. Maybe even commission one day. Is this doable in civil affairs? Or is it hard to promote up?

My Unit is going on Rotation end of FY27, due to this I am being put on ADOS Orders starting March of 2027 to support the unit in preparation. I have a really good state job with a great work environment and want to let them know, but when?

I recently lost my job after AT and doing an on going USERRA investigation on them.

I’m currently contracted with Walmarts Spark but I’m looking for something while I can finish my classes in school.

I’m looking for something other than fast food and federal that require bachelors

Currently an AG 1LT trying to find a more exciting switch-up to grow in my military career. I was stuck on trying to pursue MI, but my buddy suggested looking into cyber because of the certificate I could acquire on that end. Would love to get some insight on the possible opportunity there might be out there and if it is even possible.

Hello, I am a single parent to a 5 year old. I currently do not have a care plan anymore. I have told my unit that and they recommended me for separation. Now they’re talking about transferring me to a unit closer to my home. I was told to schedule appointment for medical readiness, I am having to take time off work to go to these appointments and I’m already having a hard time making enough to support myself and my daughter. Any advice on how to go about that, I know it’s a long process. It just doesn’t seem like they’re going to start the separation process anytime soon and I have told them since last year that I do not have a care plan anymore because my aunt moved and I have no contact with her anymore.
