I was in the Army very briefly....only one year and was given an Honorable Discharge 2 years ago. I want to reenter the military but I want to go into the Navy this time. I havent visited a recruiter yet but plan to next week. I just have a few questions I would like answered now if possible. Would I have to go through Basic Training (I think the Navy calls it Boot Camp) again? Should I expect a recruiter to give me a PT Test before I reenter? What paperwork should I bring to the recruiter the first time I visit him or her?
 
Best of luck, but as a rule, the other services don't like ex-Army personnel and it's usually difficult to get in them. However it's easy as hell for service members from other branches to get in the Army.
 
It will be very difficult to get into the Navy right now and prior service will make it even harder. They are reaching their recruiting goals and beyond and often turning people away. For Prior service it can take over 6 months before you will even go to MEPS if it is required.
