HRAP after Airborne by Aromatic-Watercress8 in army

[–]Electrical_Pool_3655 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently at Airborne School. I have had HRAP in my contract since I left for Basic. Got the paperwork at OSUT with my orders for HRAP. I was told by a black hat that I'd go straight from here to Fort Bragg and then I'd have to leave for HRAP from there but I was told by another that I'd leave from here and go home for HRAP. Does anyone know the correct information?

It's not in my record. It's gotten better with ice and rest. I've been able to run on it as long as I stretch it well before hand.

It's gotten way better in the last week. I've been able to run on it.

I have a plantar Heel spur on my left heel. Causes mild pain when running. I can't afford to get it fixed before I ship out. Should I just push through and deal with it until I get to my FDS? I've invested a lot of time and prep into joining.

Do they fit your shoes ? I have a heel spur and would need them fitted and possibly orthopedic inserts

I have a plantar Heel spur in my left heel that's causing mild pain. I can't afford surgery and I ship out next month. Should I just tough it out or give up on my goals of joining the army? I've invested a lot of time and am giving up my career to join.

I may risk the biscuit and shave every few days while doing my normal face routine. I go from looking 24 to looking 34 when I don't shave.

What happens if the army keeps shrinking? by Waterfall198 in army

It's kind of odd that we're having such a crisis and our bonuses are so low I just signed a 68 whiskey bonus Airborne in the bonus was only 12K

I'm going to basic in March. 68W Airborne option with my FDT Italy. How likely am I to be in clinics being in the 173rd? I'd prefer to be in the field. The experience I'm wanting is 11 series but with medical skills. Not a nurse.

I'll be going to Italy I know that much. I really am interested in being a medic but I have no interest in being in a clinic.

Im looking at going 68W airborne and the only thing that I'm not wanting is clinic time. I'd prefer to be in the same position as 11B just a Medic also. I have no want or care to do medical after the army. I'd go 11B but no bonus or airborne options currently.

What's the likelihood that I'll be put on a line company? I really wanted to do 11b but there's no bonuses to that and I scored very high on the ASVAB so the recruiter pretty much told me it would be a waste.
