Start networking on the Guard side now.
If you want to fly civilian, maybe get a CFI and teach at a local FBO to build some more hours during you down time. If possible, consider trying to get a tour in a C12 or 35. That would get the multi time, but you might have an ADSO for the training.
Get on APTAP. It started as an Army helo site, but don't let that stop you. the members are great folks representing all the services. The amount of experience on that site is amazing.
Good luck!
