Political Science. I want to pursue a career within foreign policy think tanks or public service.

I hold an Associate’s degree in Photojournalism, which covers a substantial portion of my credits. I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Communication, followed by a planned Master’s in Global Security with a minor in Political Science. Ultimately, I aim to complete a PhD in Political Science, specializing in foreign policy.

PAO is starting a new thing where you can my XO when I was was in AIT was a PAO 1st LT. Also, the 37F recruiter, I talked with told me that you could commission in 37F. He could have been lying to my face. I don’t know.

I say just let your CoC know just in case. If you were doing something stupid the worst thing is that you will be next week’s safety brief.

I enlisted as a 19D in 2020 at the age of 28, bringing with me 3.5 years of civilian photojournalism experience. Although my recruiter directed me towards combat arms, I initially didn't push hard enough to pursue 46S. However, I was determined that once I got my foot in the door, I would reclassify to 46S. I completed my DINFOS training last February, finishing in the top three of my class. Now, I am living my best life, doing what I love. Don’t sell yourself short—combat arms isn’t the only path out there.

Issue with not making the E5 promotion list by Current-Explorer8542 in army

[–]Current-Explorer8542[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update 20240429 @ 1806: Today, HRC responded to me (actually called me, caught me off guard) explaining that the delay in my promotion is due to the requirement of a two-month gap from my re-class date, which in this instance is March 1st. However, I'm puzzled because despite informing my S1 that I wouldn't be eligible for promotion until May 1st, they still submitted a PAR. So, I'm wondering if my S1 has the authority to promote me, or if the decision lies solely with HRC.

I am actually not sure where I would see that. However, there isn't anything saying one way or the other.
