An MFSO parent asks: 

"What pays better than being a soldier,

while avoiding all the risks?"

"Being an “embedded” private headhunter for a private contracting firm.

"Get paid $2,000 for identifying and signing up real soldiers, while you just wear the military “image”. Set up your private head hunting websites now and rake in the money!"

This ironic observation of an MFSO parent speaks to another aspect of the insanity and decietfulness of this despicable war.

Guard Recruiting Assistants can earn additional income assisting ARNG recruiting efforts by identifying well-qualified men and women for service in the ARNG. RAs earn $2,000 for each new recruit who enlists and reports to Basic Training or for each prior service member who affiliates with a unit for four months.

Guard Recruiting Assistants are embedded in their respective communities and are uniquely positioned to identify Potential Soldiers in the people they already know. It's the effective way to promote strength from within.

Be a Guard Recruiting Assistant. Qualify to become a Guard Recruiting Assistant through a simple online process. Take the first step toward earning additional income while assisting the ARNG in meeting future manpower requirements.

The Guard Recruiting Assistance Program (G-RAP) is a contracted program designed for individuals who voluntarily apply online at www.GuardRecruitingAssistant.com to become eligible to serve as a part-time Recruiter Assistant (RA). The RA applicant will be verified and hired by a contractor, not the ARNG.

Each RA will cultivate quality Potential Soldiers from within their individual spheres of influence. Once a Potential Soldier is identified and pre-qualified, the RA will facilitate a meeting engagement with their local Recruiting and Retention NCO (RRNCO). The triad of RRNCO, RA, and Potential Soldier will then work closely to process the Potential Soldier and move them towards accession.

Upon enlistment, the RA will receive an initial payment of $1,000, with a second $1,000 payment upon successful shipment of a NPS to Basic Training. As for a PS recruit, the RA will receive the initial payment of $1,000 upon enlisting in the Army National Guard with SIDPERS and ARISS having been updated, and the second $1,000 payment upon successful drilling of 120 days in their unit. Note: exact payment timelines vary depending upon prior service/non-prior status and availability of training seats.
