Update on Post-9/11 GI Bill for ASRs:

I applied and was denied and filed an appeal, which after 3 months came back also denied. It's a little irritating, because they mention the reason for denial being that ASR's are not AGR. As backing evidence, the second denial goes back and quotes the language of the law, which mentions that the Post-9/11 GI Bill includes folks on title 32 ordes for recruiting (i.e.: us) but makes no mention of AGR at all.

There is a third level of appeal that I'm considering, but it's not looking good. Long and short of it, I would consider the Post-9/11 GI Bill largely a no-go for ASR's.
