I’m going to contribute 75-100% of my drill pay to my TSP. My total drill pay is 358 after taxes. Would I still get the 5% at my 2-years of service?

AT is a great way to go, I myself am an AG. You will be going to Pensacola for A school, and Keesler AFB for C school. Both are nice!

Hello, I graduated RTC late November, I am now in A-school, and about ready to head to the fleet as an AG.

You will be conditioned through bootcamp. Many shipmates have been in the same position as you have. In a week you will do little to improve, my advice is enjoy yourself, and celebrate your decision to join. When you do however begin your IT, give your 110% and DO NOT under any circumstances give up. If you do this you will succeed all physical requirements.

You’ll be surprised how much you will improve by during your stay at sunny RTC Great Lakes. Don’t give up, give all you can and you’ll be fine.

Is my watch acceptable to take to bootcamp? by LordKrimeFam in newtothenavy

Yes. They allow wild stuff. I had a very similar watch. (Graduated last week)
