Depends on how long you have been out, if what you did before is what you still plan to do, etc. The general rule of thumb is if you get out of the service and join the same service within a year, doing the same thing, then yes, you can. If you join another service within a year, doing the same thing, most of the time you will be knocked down one grade (E5 to E4). The longer it has been since you previously got out, the lower the rank you will most likely get. Everything is circumstantial. The only truly solid answer you will find is when you are about to re-sign your enlistment papers and you read the contract. Up until that point, no matter what any rule book says or naval recruiter tells you, the answer is fluid.

If you have prior service do you have to go to basic training again if you join another branch?
If you have prior military service, you may not have to go through basic training again if you join another branch. The decision depends on various factors such as the length and type of your previous service, as well as the policies of the branch you are joining. In many cases, prior service members are exempt from repeating basic training, but they may still have to complete a shorter retraining program or attend an orientation course. It is best to consult with a recruiter from the branch you wish to join for specific guidance.
