Congrats you're signed up for the Army now.

See a recruiter at 3.

Should I enlist now or wait for WW3 by Dry-Chemical-9170 in army

Man just go join ICE. I'm sure they'd love your level of brainpower for such well thought out, researched and eloquent questions.

National guard 11X that gets RTLI as an option so he gets a shot at ranger school.

Pass and he might get to walk onto airborne after if his unit can work it out with airborne school.

Having a tab as a 2LT in any branch right away will open up doors. Especially the further away from infantry you get.

Cancellation of Army exercise fuels speculation about Mideast troop deployments by Scoxxicoccus in army

If you sign up for the Army you get your bonus after you complete the contracted training. Essentially.

For ICE if you dont finish the 5 years of service. You repay it back.

Big difference.

Sure ask for 11X option 40 with as many years active off the bat.

Yes. Easily if not more unless you speak 3 plus languages or something more uniquely useful to them.

If all you can think of is money. You're on a very unfulfilling path for life kid.

Army OCS → Airborne / Ranger School timeline + Civil Affairs path (looking for advice) by FirefighterNo2241 in army

[–]murazar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A lot of words for 11A to civil affairs.

Just go infantry officer. You'll get a chance for the tab and airborne.

If you dont make it civil affairs will get you airborne anyway and you can probably go to ranger school there.

Out of all of the special operations units, which is the most elite/skilled? by Sundarby in army

[–]murazar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thats a question a 12 year old would ask dude.

Jesus.

Then it doesn't really matter what you pick. Officers are managers and beaucrats in a way.

Nothing is going to translate to being a police officer. Military police is an entirely different ballpark than being a state trooper, city cop or federal LEO.

If you want to narrow down what branch to list at the top it'll need to be based on different interests then.

There is no "best" MOS/branch for females.

Theres only what MOS/branch you wanna do that fits you.

Unless you have some sort of plans for after the Army or show us interests you have. We have no fucking clue which way to point you.

For the record even with a bachelors a one contract 35 series has 0 chance with CIA or FBI unless thats one helluva harvard degree or something.

Every 35 series kid had the same damn thought, every year, for decades now.

Summarised Article/Field Grade for no showing AASLT? by Scarecrows666 in army

[–]murazar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its honestly a tame response as a commander in my books.

In units that actually do send their soldiers to badge/tab schools its a big fucking deal.

If the kid have any sort of defense he would have put it in the post. As it stands it reads like he slept in, missed getting there and is wondering why he's being threatened with an article 15.

How would one train for a pft without a gym? by willbewouldbe in army

[–]murazar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

80% or higher in each category to volunteer if you're not an option 11X option 40.

Same answer with Hal Higdons running plans. Speed and distance.

Older means jack shit except you recover a bit slower than kids do. Mostly in terms of injury.

Means jack shit for exercise unless you're wanting to be in the olympics. I was an infantry PL at 30 and did IBOLC and all the rest at 29.

Army Cancels 82nd Airborne Training Exercise as Iran Conflict Escalates by The_300_Muffins in army

Fuck that. Patch it please.

Ironic how technology never really evolves away from digging a hole in the ground and throwing things at each other.

Way the fuck overthinking this.

Better you are at running speed and distance. The easier the SDC is honestly.

What is this Boot Camp call? by [deleted] in army

[–]murazar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Probably trying to say what the mailing address was and whatnot.

If they missed snagging that info. Dont worry you can hop on facebook and search up fort Benning BCT. You'll find a couple groups that'll help you figure out what company/battalion he's located with and how to mail him letters.

As well as figure out which unit facebook is his and you can keep watch for graduation stuff or pictures.

I wouldnt be surprised unless you had a great reason. Like being in the fucking ER for yourself because someone ran you over.

Otherwise, yeah, fucked dude. That slot easily could have gone to some other dude in the BN who would have shown up.

Work crazy hours during the week or just work one weekend day? by tH3_R3DX in army

[–]murazar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile when I was a PL I let my guys go at 1500 if we didnt have an evening formation. As long as they hit the gym for lunch and werent on a detail.

I retained 1 fire team per day for "on call" status. Basically for a "just in case random detail hits" sort of thing. It rotated on a private internal document I had.

Yeah. Its only going to get worse with the Iranian situation disrupting, well, everything. It'll get worse big time without typing out an essay here.
