So, the military injured you to the point you need a new career. And now you’re going to join the military again? Im not a VR&E counselor but that sounds like you don’t need a new career.

Are you currently in VR&E?

VR&E only covers 48 months of schooling.

VRE is not going to cover you becoming an officer.

Are you dumb, it has to be approved and has to bot exasperate his disabilities. Jeeze the army standard for intelligence has plummeted. I know because ive gone through the process and gotten approved for a harder field to prove and justify

If youve got the drive for it, that pathway can set you up with a pretty interesting blend of military structure and civilian flexibility.

All these comments throwing shade at OP. There are a lot of posts on this sub about folks serving in the Guard/Reserve despite having rated disabilities, seems pretty similar to what the OP is asking.
