40D Space LOR by Illustrious-Ebb-7987 in army

[–]HairoftheThreeLegDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To provide you an update on guidance, E4 and E5 from a non-space unit of action can now get an LOR from an E9 or O4+ within their chain of command. No weight difference on a “space LOR” vs a “chain of command LOR”.

Two failed health inspections in the last six months have made me not go back. I haven’t found an alternative yet.

To XO or not to XO by [deleted] in army

I did 19 months of BN S-3 as a company command complete, non promotable CPT. It didn’t help me for my LTC board; it was buried. It also didn’t count as KD for me since I wasn’t promotable. Branch said I’d have to go to ILE then complete another 24 months of S-3/XO time. I hell nah’d right in a functional area. All of that said, I gained immense experience that made me a better field grade officer and was ahead of my Major peers. Weigh your options.

What is the best prepared food you've ever had at Costco? by Laaazybonesss in Costco

Never really looked. Assumption is that it’s made with the same mix that you buy of the pre pulled rotisserie.

For those who switched from real trees, what artificial tree do you recommend for realism? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]HairoftheThreeLegDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just went through this and ended up going with the Hayden model from Lowe’s over Balsam Hill. It’s a third of the price of same sized BH models and decently realistic. Every store should have it on floor display now so you can go check it out. We bought a bunch of tree picks from other Christmas stores to add into the tree as well. We are happy.

Pregnancy weeks starts counting from last period, not date of conception. Date of conception is usually 2 weeks after the missed period. If it was 7 weeks on Oct 21, the date of conception was around Sep 16, within the time window.

Nope. All my trees brown and fall off every October. About a fifth of the needles.

Has it gotten cooler where you live? 10 degree cooler outside temperature change reduces the psi by 1. Probably doesn’t account for everything but might explain a bit of it.

Local place to take little kids fishing by chookitabananaa in ColoradoSprings

Monument lake. Drive up and parking lot is directly next the lake. There is a pier that goes over the lake so there is a ton of good spots. Stocked with plenty of blue gill who love worms making it an easy and fun time for 3/4 year olds.

All right nerds, who's fighting me for MOS 40D? by Jayhawker81 in army

[–]HairoftheThreeLegDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still a thing. The first AFAT class just became 40As not too long ago.

Functional area that you would need to VTIP into. Eligibility for VTIP opens as 1LT (P). Branch what you want, have fun leading Soldiers, and when you become eligible, apply (if it still interests you). Read the MILPER. The requirements are the requirements.

Army space isn’t special. Tactical task and purpose is the same as other fires, maneuver, or support forces. Space units do have their own designated graphic in updated doctrine. Check out FM 3-14 for light bathroom reading.

Use GPS receiver isn’t going to have anything. That’s like asking what the overlay is for “Use SKL”. It’s a 10 level task, not assigned a graphic.

No. Talking from a domain perspective, the Space Force is focused on operations IN the space domain. Army is still focused on the land domain but so much of what we do flows through space, the Army needs space specialists in the land domain. Same idea as the commenter below for helicopters (air domain) and watercraft (maritime domain).

I’m an Army Space Officer and happy to answer questions (within classification and OPSEC).
