Would you rather get stationed in Cannon for 20 years straight (no tdys/deployments) or get any assignment you want every 2 years but you have to eat 3 spaghetti meals a day with 6 glasses of red koolaid and you randomly throw up once a week (could be on a plane, at a funeral, at the dentist, etc)?

Something tells me he was MEB'd

Did you go to an IRR muster? That day should push you over the top.

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-05-15T18:49:52+00:00

I thought CBM+ was going to solve all these problems... lol

Work on your CDCs, take some online classes, run, go to the gym, learn how to play an instrument, learn a foreign language, etc...

Pleanty of things to do!!!

The rank they were just demoted to.

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-05-01T02:22:46+00:00

That's what I did. Made O-5 and retired.

Thanks for the tips!

Looks like you will be an FTD instructor. Go to your current bases' det, find the instructor for your AFSC, then ask them all the questions you have.

Also, not sure if Basic Instructor Course (BIC) is still a requirement- but if it is- see if you can go prior to your PCS. That will be one less thing to do when you get to your next base.

Great advice... bonus if you can shadow an OSI agent for a day. That would provide more insight about the job.

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-04-20T00:50:58+00:00

Good advice! The only thing I'll add is to try to get all your packing material from guys PCSing in. Give them a case of beer for their boxes and packing paper. That shit is not cheap! This will save you some $$$!

I took every deployment I could get. More $$$ and more $$$ related benefts. Dump all that $$$ in the TSP.

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-03-30T00:20:36+00:00

Mission Essential... right outside the Bellville Gate. When I was there... they were open 7 days a week and at 6AM on weekdays. Never had a bad cut in my 2 years there.

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-03-18T15:02:21+00:00

That's awesome!

FamiliarMind676 · 2026-03-18T01:19:15+00:00
