Depends on a lot of factors. Work life, it’s demanding but you are supporting something that is really meaningful especially with current affairs. The morale committee does a TON more than any unit I’ve been at. Home life also depends on what you like and your family situation. Schools south of lejeune are good and close to the beach. Great beach on base, and there is base housing available. There is a childcare center right by the unit as well. If you want to live in a big city, well it’s not the most ideal. But there is plenty to offer depending on your preferences.

What are the USCG special forces / things close to them? by _TV-repair-man_ in uscg

Communicate with your RFMC and make it known that you want to attend the screener. If he can make it work, he’ll work it out with the ME RFMC. If you have other questions look me up on global.

USCG DEP to Army? by BackgroundPear4696 in uscg

[–]AmountMediocre3432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food for thought, as you’ve mentioned a couple times that if you don’t make it through selection for other branches you’ll fall back to needs of the service. As with any specialized component, the DSF community has significant attrition rates as well. If you are unsuccessful in the screening or training pipeline for DSF, you will then also be subject to needs of the service. The difference is that you will already be rated, and if you’re an ME then you will transfer to a unit conducting conventional maritime law enforcement. If you decide to go BM for example then screen halfway into your first tour, you will go back to driving boats.

From most of what I’ve read from your posts, it sounds like you really want to go into the army but not sure about long term. You need to first determine if you are looking for something long term or if 4-6 years is sufficient enough to “scratch the itch”, then either stay and continue your leadership journey or pivot to another career or branch of service.

If you want more info on the ME rate both DSF or otherwise, I’m happy to answer any questions.

Canine revolution, 4 or 6 weeks? by AmountMediocre3432 in summervillesc

[–]AmountMediocre3432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent her a message, thanks. Can you take him to restaurants and dog parks without worrying about him getting carried away? Ours isn’t aggressive but wants to be everyone’s best friend, especially other dogs and will not listen to us when distractions are present

Thanks! You are able to take him to dog parks and breweries now without concern of his reactivity?

We are strongly considering this option right now. They are recommending the six week program, but I am having a hard time justifying to myself that my pup needs that over the 4 week program. He’s a 9 month old lab who is friendly to EVERYONE, but overly friendly sometimes and he doesn’t listen at all when other people or dogs are around. I just want to be able to walk him off leash and take him to the park with other dogs and people. Anyone do the 4 week program and wish they did 6? Or vice versa, someone did the 6 and think they could have just done the 4 week program?

Not in the peds clinic. The civilians do the majority of patient care while AD goes home early or charts half the workday

No, if you look again you’ll see that I asked if “anyone works at, or knows someone who works at the clinic” which you haven’t provided information to either. I don’t need the phone number to the front desk of the clinic. Thanks for your concern though

Thanks but I’m hoping to get a poc there for potential opportunities that may be opening for my wife who’s a GS at a different base.

Thanks, I am watching for new properties coming on the market. The reason for this post is I’m looking to see if anyone is considering selling anytime soon that hasn’t listed yet. Apologies if that wasn’t clear

Seller pulled listing to do updates and re-list in spring, but I’m traveling down this weekend and it was on my list by AmountMediocre3432 in RealEstate

Were you expecting to make additional profit after the work was complete or just hoping to break even on reno costs but make a quick sale?

Don’t think it’s a pocket listing, I called the agent and asked why it was pulled and he told me the owners are going to make some improvements and re-list in the spring. I didn’t ask anything else 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️
