OPERATION BLUE TO GREEN: ALLOWING YOU TO CONTINUE TO SERVE YOUR COUNTRY

OPERATION BLUE TO GREEN

ALLOWING YOU TO CONTINUE TO SERVE YOUR COUNTRY

During this period of "right sizing" the Air Force and Navy, the Army recognizes the need for our armed forces to retain qualified men and women.

Operation Blue to Green will allow you to continue to serve your country, maintain the benefits of military service and expand your horizons by gaining new training in another military branch. The program allows qualified Air Force and Navy personnel to transfer to Active Duty service in the Army. Enrollment in the program depends on your current active service obligation, and your branch’s willingness to release you to the Army.

Selected members of the United States Marine Corps or Coast Guard, who are otherwise qualified, may be eligible for opportunities in the Army. However, Marines and Coast Guard members will be required to complete their current terms of active service.
