Lets see if I can explain my situation: I'm prior service, I live in San Antonio right now with my wife, I'm going to Colorado this summer to do wildland firefighting but will be back in SA afterwards in late September. My wife will stay in San Antonio this summer and during tech school.
My recruiter says there are 3 slots available for prior service this FY and wants me to go through Selection at the end of September before the end of the FY.
Will I be able to stay in San Antonio (Lackland) after selection for the months preceding the January tech school, and be able to live at home?
Or, will I be sent straight up to Fairchild to await tech school?
I don't want to get screwed by the latter, and not be able to really see my wife for the better part of a year. So if being sent directly to Fairchild after Selection is the case, I will wait till the next FY to go through Selection, if there are still slots for next FY for prior service.
Any feedback would be awesome!
