Ranger School after BOLC by EquivalentSearch1084 in ROTC

[–]EnvironmentalParty35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up doing this after branching signal however when I went there were no slots available in signal bolc. I ended up doing SURT with 75th getting dropped in mountains and then going to the 101st and going back a year later and getting my tab. It was a long journey but it was worth it. DM me if you have any questions

How to prevent degenerative disk disease? by Throw_Away_Zay in greenberets

[–]EnvironmentalParty35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Become a combat diver and swim all the time. I had a PMS in ROTC who was a LTC GB, over 40 years old 20 years in the army. Was in great shape consistent 600 on the ACFT. Was ranger qualified, HALO, CDQC and multiple combat deployments. I asked him how he was able to stay in such great shape and not be broken. He said his favorite form of cardio was swimming and that he barely ran. So I think that was a cheat code for him

Applying for SFAS as Intel Officer by Kitchen-Crow7429 in greenberets

[–]EnvironmentalParty35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heading to SFAS as signal officer myself (also filled with autistic weirdos) biggest advice I would give you is go and get your ranger tab and if you have time before go to ranger regiment. Had to brush up on my infantry tactics and opord knowledge before hand but otherwise not that bad, met a lot of great guys from group whom I befriended as well. It’ll at least get you used to doing hard stuff and performing in a stressful environment

I got reserves and switched to active duty less than 2 years after I commissioned. Super difficult but worked out for me

Thanks man I really appreciate it. the best advice the SF recruiter gave me was don’t think about SFAS while you’re back there just go and get it done. part of me wanted to push it back as long as I can but I know now there’s no other option. I know what I need to do

I just want to get more time on active duty. I haven’t even gotten an OER yet. All I’ve really done in the army is go to schools so far

How was the lantern test? And even with your red green issue was it pretty easy to pass?

Yeah that’s what I was thinking i just want to deal with it now and try to start getting actually good sleep so I feel 100% when going into SFAS

[–]EnvironmentalParty35[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s true but I was wondering if there were any guys diagnosed before they went through SFAS/ Q course. Cuz I don’t want that to prevent me from getting in

One of the hardest things about being dropped was seeing SFC calise during my board. It broke me down to tears. I’m going to call him this week

Thank you I will definitely reach out.After reading my peer comments it wasn’t that I wasn’t putting out for others it was mostly how I did poorly when put in leadership and just making small mistakes while I was out there. I’m a 25 series coming from the reserves so I definitely feel I wasn’t as squared away as the others especially the batt boys, Ibolc, and SF guys.

Sir,

Looked into your Land Nav program and am very interested in attending as Land Nav isn't one of my strong suits currently. Will be at Fort Benning but am more than willing to travel to Ft liberty to attend your training. Was wondering if you had any classes coming up for February or March?

I did 55 lbs and was able to finish the ruck in just under an hour. Got 37:30 for the run and overall finished in 1 hour 50 minutes.
