Perhaps I can get a straight answer here...
I'm a 92-Day reservist currently in drill status in Greensboro, NC. I've finished boot, but won't do MOS school or MCT until this coming summer (or activation, whichever's first). My question involves Chapter 16 educational benefits, specifically the SMCR GI Bill. From what I was initially told, I was not eligible to draw these benefits until after I had completed the entire IADT cycle. However, I was later told by my unit's S-1 section that I *was* eligible, but never recieved a NOBE. My question at this point is simply, am I eligible at this point to begin drawing benefits, or do I have to wait until finishing the rest of my IADT? Thanks in advance!
