![]() One thing to understand about the BEAR program is that you must first EXTEND to meet your training requirements, and then later RE-ENLIST. The BEAR program re-trains current Soldiers into MOSs that the Army is short handed in and gets them out of their current even or over strength MOS. Those MOSs that are even and over strength are able to re-classify into the MOS 35P and can be paid a hefty bonus via the Bonus Extension and Retraining (BEAR) Program. When you look at the IN/OUT call list for your skill level and MOS, it will tell you if your MOS is under-strength (Y/N), even-strength (N/N), or over-strength (N/Y). You can only have three options for each skill level of each MOS: Y/N, N/N, and N/Y. It's very simple to understand IN/OUT calls. If you are currently on active duty and hold an MOS that is N/N or N/Y according to the IN/OUT calls, you may be eligible to re-classify into MOS 35P and get a language. Here is the current link for the MILPER message for the BEAR program (HEFTY bonus!!!): I will keep you updated if the information changes in the future. The information below the line is just for older, research purposes and Google search results. Despite my best efforts and collaboration with other NCOs, I am sometimes wrong and you shouldn't base your enlistment/re-enlistment solely on what I have to say, but rather use this information as a base for your research.ĪLERT: Effective 1 October, 2013, the BEAR program is COMPLETELY RESCINDED for ALL MOSs. All information presented should be double-checked with your CLPM and Retention NCO/Recruiter, or double-checked in the Army Regulation or message provided. Whatever my opinions are on here are not to be considered the opinions of the Army, or even considered fact. This is just an NCO trying to help other Soldiers out. This is NOT an official Army-sanctioned webpage.
