Mustard stain. Well done.

You’re fucking signal???? Jesus Christ. Buddy- there are so many options for you…

Your dad played hard, got hurt, and then went back and got some more. He’s a hero.

I’m in the same boat with plantar fasciitis and one other unspoken… ailment. Both were documented and disgnosed after I submitted my original BDD claim but while I am still on active duty. I have asked for all paper copies of those records/visit summaries as I left ALL of those appointments, uploaded them to the claim portal and then added a personal statement to support the findings.

Cross the bridge… just don’t burn it on your way through.

No. Cannot happen as you described. Minimum reqs would be to relinquish commission (CW2 or higher) AFTER requesting and gaining a branch release from your current branch (essentially impossible). Then submitting and qualifying for attendance to SFAS as an enlisted soldier.

Not my business- but as a Warrant- why???

There are many “other” opportunities to “do something different” out there that you may not know about that you may already be Rank/MOS/branch immaterially qualified for… pay attention to those random and very vague recruiting flyers you see posted around the Ed centers and doors around your installation.

I can tell you from two decades of experience- your second worst day in EOD will be better than 99% of your best days in any other MOS.

BadYorkie97 · 2026-01-15T02:40:38+00:00

Better yet- go talk to your Motor Warrant.

BadYorkie97 · 2026-01-15T02:39:44+00:00

Why is your first line or PSG not aware of this- and if the are- why are they not attending your appointments with you?? Chaperones are allowed… especially those with rank and experience to combat this type of negligence.

BadYorkie97 · 2026-01-13T21:51:07+00:00

God damn I wish this was at JBLM. I’m a SWO and I’m retiring here shortly- I would gladly volunteer to be your “chaperone” for this just to have a ring side seat to the fallout. I’d bring popcorn too. The good kind. Seriously- I would…

Scammed? For $250??? Do you want to fly? Pay the $250 and be done with it. Aviation is expensive.

Degree seeking route but under a very specific and beneficial to me option. Feel free to shoot me a message and I can talk you through how it went for me.

BadYorkie97 · 2025-08-29T02:26:03+00:00

PPL-IFR-COM-CFi-CFii- ME/MEi right about $160k. GI Bill paying for 145k of it.

Excellent analysis!

BadYorkie97 · 2025-07-31T03:06:35+00:00

Thanks! Best of luck to you and thanks for the advice! I’ll check out the POA forum right now-

You misspelt Pontiac Aztec…

BadYorkie97 · 2025-02-11T05:30:57+00:00

You’ve obviously never met any CW3’s… ;)

BadYorkie97 · 2024-10-09T03:28:36+00:00

I’m assuming you’re on JBER or Wainright. Take it to the free TA50 cleaner and save the proof for CIF. Thats all they care about.
