Most employers have no friggin idea what SF is so this doesn't matter. Of course if you feed them lines about being a "trained killer" they may think twice about screwing with your job. I've never had anyone be critical of SF to me (at least not to my face).

Jo Sul....
I would have to say that so far my employer has been supportive of my decision to re-enlist and I have not had to hold USERRA over their head. My only concern is that by the grace of God and my will I be selected for SF, then we are talking about a huge initial chunk of time away for trianing. My direct supervisor who is also an officer of the company has made mention that "SF would be an entire NEW career path for you". In subtle terms I am thinking they will try to dick me out of my job.
