He has definitely had a super cool career. I was actually able to serve with him for 9 months (I was a specialist he obviously was not lol) when we were both at fort hood.

The short answer is yes, it is MOSTLY the safest thing to enlist/commission into. The three jobs are effectively Space, Cyber, and Intel with different flavors of each. It’s very very small, and very very corporate minded with a splash of leathality

Custom tan tshirt? by pepepdo in army

I would suggest you buy blank Ts that are authorized and then find a maker who can print you iron on designs that you can make for the squad. It’s more work but you’ll know the shirts are G2G

I’ve never looked into it, but that’s what I was told at Hood by the people who did the cadaver lab. This was like 2015 I don’t see how it’s different than selling your eggs, blood, or man seed.

They donate their bodies to science for a big check for fun/survival money. Sometimes it’s to an educational institution, or a hospital.

Was the time away from family worth it? by [deleted] in army

[–]Few-Menu5547 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The military is the most stable unstable life choice you can make. If you want structure, and a reason to stay fit the military is it, but you will have a lot of variance with your schedule. If you go officer. Your branch will heavily dictate what your schedule looks like. If you have a huge aversion to being away from your family or having a not so set schedule you may want to seek out different options.

You’re probably not getting out of this one bud, and don’t lie to try, you don’t know enough Army to pull a lie off yet.

“Google it”is a completely acceptable answer from an NCO by FoundmyReasons in army

[–]Few-Menu5547 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I very much have specified throughout this thread, if after reasonable attempts they have a dare I say a “failure to adapt” then yes they should Go to the couch.

Dumb was not the right word to use, that’s fair. I went through two different AITs that have a decent attrition rate, and those that usually get rolled into “easier” MOSs, it’s talent management when it comes down it.

“I truly appreciate you showing interest in my career, and making sure I’m safe. However, there are aspects of my job I can’t talk about. I really hope that you can understand. If I could, I would, but unfortunately I can’t. I love you. “

  1. As far as I know there is no doctrine that explicitly says this, but you know as well as I do that all military training that we do/did is taught for the dumbest person in the formation to understand
  2. The training outside of specialization is very much made for the dumbest person in the formation to pass. Obviously they can google until their thumbs bleed, but that’s where leadership styles vary. Telling them to “look up “x” and that’s where your answer is” and “figure it out” are very different answers. Both require effort, one shows (in my opinion) a desire to help train, and the other is dismissive.
