[QUOTE="Keepingthemhonest, post: 122268, member: 6514"] I am doing that right now...the exact thing. I work the preload (am sort) and joined the air national guard in may. I was in a thing my base calls student flight where you learn about the air force history and basic ect.. during your one weekend a month. I leave for basic january, go to tech school after that and will be back in june. I must be reemployed at the job I was in when I left or a job that I would have attained in my absence (if they put up a bid that I would have won ect..). In the national master (your contract) article 15 the military clause explains this. It is a federal law called the uniformed services reemployement act. You should talk with your sups and steward before you do anything just to give them a heads up and should secure written notification before taking time off. The catch22 is you must be honorably discharged to qualify so make sure you don't fool around when serving...You will not loose any senority and will be covered by the military's active duty cobra while at basic and tech school. Once you come back aetna will be reinstated...I think if you have dependants already covered by the plan there are some rules about having health coverage continued...but that is provided by the USERRA and should be a question you ask your recruiter [/QUOTE]
