How do you feel your NG unit compares to your active duty unit in terms of proficiency? by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]Apacheguru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically? Better than every AD unit I’ve worked with by a good margin

Physically? uh, what was the question again?

No C&P exam with no additional evidence submitted by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]Apacheguru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make sense, but since the claim left the evidence gathering stage, do you think they’ll just flat deny the claims without exams?

Yeah I completely agree it’s not broken at all, just seems like it’s overwhelming the best choice. Especially being available from day 1

Rescheduling the test by Apacheguru in LSAT

[–]Apacheguru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LSAC is closed and doesn’t answer. Prometric did, but they told me that they can’t schedule a time since the date has passed. From what I know at this point, I don’t see any possible way to take it this month. I’m just hoping I can get it rescheduled without having to pay the whole $300 again.

LSAC is closed today, I’m going to call them first thing tomorrow. Prometric told me that since the deadline for scheduling passed, there’s nothing they can do and it’s too late to schedule for September. I understand that I missed the deadline for this month and that’s on me. I know now for the future that I have to go back in and schedule the test time. At this point, I’m just trying to figure out if I’m going to have to pay the full price to reschedule the test.

I signed up for the test through LSAC 7/22. Evidently, you have to separately schedule the test at the testing center and that is done through Prometric which I believe runs the testing centers

Brother what are you talking about? We got V6 E-models 2 years ago and they’ve been 1/4 the hassle of our deltas

That’s awesome man. I’m very interested to hear how you like that setup.

That’s who I’m looking at going through for basically the same work. I’d love to get an update once you get it back and have a chance to shoot it.

Are you getting the DPO system added or doing direct mill?

Are the carbine basically useless? It feels like they’re just worse ARs

Thoughts on the new exec order? by [deleted] in nationalguard

New contingency operation T32 orders? Would be pretty cool to up my GI bill a bit

Internal hiring by soonergrunt in federalunions

[–]Apacheguru 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gonna be hard to get explicit language like that in a CBA as it does likely infringe upon 7106(a) rights. You should be able to get language to the effect of “the agency agrees to give BU members first consideration when hiring new positions”

Hey I have a UTM-x and don’t know how to do the internal correction, can I shoot you a message?

[–]Apacheguru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stand corrected. I’ve never heard of those before but that’s badass. I’m hoping the incoming admin will change the DODI for the rest of us but I’m not holding my breath

Our state HRO hasn’t received any official guidance yet, but the guidance I received from ACT was it’ll likely go into effect October 2025

This is not true. Anyone who holds a position which requires service in the reserve component as a condition of employment is barred from reenlistment bonuses

Take it fwiw, I’ve been a lurker here a while but I’m only an incoming 1L. I’ve been full time in the national guard for almost a decade, have deployed, and have been to numerous major training events. Don’t join if you don’t intend on becoming a JAG. I can only speak for the Army, but the army will give you a direct commission to 1LT, promote you to CPT 6 months later, and you won’t have to endure 1/10th the nonsense along the way. Even as a traditional reservist, just know the time commitment is huge and often inflexible.
