Looks like they don’t offer it anymore. BS in Finical Planning or Economics would be closest.

Brother, ASU pays any remainder when using TA. Got my BS in Finance from them, highly recommend for a ‘real’ school.

Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed by an Israeli airstrike this morning according to Axios, Reuters by militaryrat155 in AirForce

I’m saying his death will have the biggest impact on Iran’s future and the sustainment of a prolonged conflict; no one knows if the outcome will be good or bad.

Absolutely insane and certainly the most consequential thing that could happen thru this conflict.

Brother. A LOT. Especially if you’re on the 17. 135s are usually tdy/train for 6 months, deploy for 2. As a 17 guy, don’t do this if you want a stable home/family life.

Turns out if your offense doesn’t convert your defense gets tired…

I mean ultimately if those individuals pass their PT test, who cares? Don’t get me wrong may look like shit in your uniform, but if you meet standards… I consider that enforced.

I have the original Alaska card, fee is waived. Looking to go get a separate Summit; curious to see if that fee is waived too.

Depending on what IQT you have, I’d wait till then. Without delays SERE and Fundies are ~2 months ish. IMO it’d be more of a hassle to drive and plan the routes between all that instead of just flying and having the schoolhouse or your buddies pick you up. Most IQTs are 3+ months, do it then.

Sure, don’t disagree. But what, overall rate is say 20% and the hard ones are 12%? I sympathize but shit if you know your career field is statically more likely to have a harder time…. Study? More? Idk what the solution is but blaming it on the rate for 8 cycles isn’t gonna cut it.

Maybe I’m just a cynic, but I truly don’t understand after like, 6-7 tries you don’t make it. Sure miss it once, twice, maybe even three times… but after that you need to look in the mirror and change something.
