He was being sarcastic. Athough you CAN be a guard or Res baby and go directly to a legacy. Happens all the time

Another thing...working two jobs is not "double dipping", it's working.

Double-dipping in military context means a reservist whose civilian employer continues to pay his regular salary while on military duty, either for a limited amount of time (typically 30 fays/year) or indefinitely. Most civil servants enjoy this benefit, but not surprisingly very few private sector employees.
