One of my kids is enlisting in the military. She is requesting training
as an
aviation mechanic.

Does anybody know if the schooling and experience in the military would
have
any value when attempting to get an A&P certificate from the FAA?

Yes, that's how I got my A&P ticket, but the experience must be recent or
concurrent.

You don't just get the A&P ticket by virtue of being a military
mechanic regardless of your experience--you still have to take all the
examinations. Isn't this how you got your A&P?
