If you have an honorable discharge, whether it is a triple F early out or a full enlistment, chances are that a power company won't care.
I know I am a broken record on this, but......when you transition to civilian, do not be hung up on being at a nuclear plant. I was an operator for 9 years at a coal plant and I really wouldn't train that to go work at a nuclear plant. In this industry, the more open you are to moving up and sometimes out, the more opportunities you will have.
When I was hired at the company that I have been with for the last 10 years, it was pointed out how only 1 or 2 persons in the room would have been able to make weight.
Another thing for those getting out to remember is that the GI Bill does cover Apprenticeships. If you don't think you will have time to go to school, and are in an apprenticeship, you can at least get a good chunk of your GI Bill. (It will more than repay your initial investment)

Thanks for the correction.
Some who have converted from MGIB may still be elligible for OJT. It looks like those who aren't converts won't get paid for OJT.
