The processing day will consist of a medical physical, drug screening, and once you have cleared these screenings you will complete your contract.
CONTRACT LENGTH
No matter what branch of service you decide to serve with, you automatically incur an 8 year Military Service Obligation (MSO). This is Federal Law in the United States for all initial enlistments.
This 8 year MSO includes serving time in an active status and inactive status. Active Service is the period of time you are actively serving in the National Guard. Inactive Service is a period of time served in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). You can enlist for 3 or 6 years, and then serve the remainder of your MSO in the IRR. Personnel in the IRR do not serve with a unit, but agree to remain available for military service in the event of a national emergency that requires more Soldiers than are currently available in the active ranks.
Your contract obligation starts the day of enlistment. This includes the time from MEPS to when you ship to training.
