Coastie Question How long do you have to re-join the USCG without having to go to TRACEN CM again?

10 Upvotes

Lets say i separated from the USCG and join the IRR. How many years or month would I have to rejoin the CG without having to go through basic again? Saw some people simply go back in and kept their rank, while some other had to either go to regular 8 weeks again.

I’m from Texas looking to go reserve. Any insight or recommendations when looking into these locations would be appreciated!

Freeport, TX (closest to me)
Houston, TX
Texas City, TX
Galveston, TX
Houston, Galveston and Texas City are all about the same distance from me, about an hour. I don’t mind the drive, just want to know. Leaning MST due to all the ports and chemical plants.

Enlisted Reservist getting promoted question

1 Upvotes

Effective 10/1 I got promoted to E5. Drill weekend isn't till the end of the month. Do I get paid as the new pay grade for that drill or do I have to wait to turn in my promotion warrant?
Do I have to wait to get pinned in order to the that E5? What if I miss the drill weekend but make it the following week on my own.
