VTU is technically part of IRR. For practical purposes, it's no pay SELRES as you drill and get fitreps...but no pay.Question, I'm a bit confused---is VTU the same as IRR? If I travel overseas for my civilian job for 1-2 years and can't travel back to the US to drill because it's too expensive, would I have to be in a VTU then go back to a select reserve unit when I come back to the US?
You could contact VTU CO about telecommuting options (zillions of rules, but since you're not paid their prob won't be same scrutiny). It will be easier to transfer back to SELRES if you stay VTU. From the IRR, you'll basically have to apply again (MEPS, etc...)
