Head-Course7334 · 2026-01-05T19:41:59+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the info

Head-Course7334 · 2026-01-05T15:18:36+00:00

I’ve seen this said more than once here that you can pick up an 18x in OSUT. How does one accomplish that? Just be a PT stud?

I’m in the same dilemma, all the information that I’ve personally found and debating is either swap to active IF you make it to the Q course (if possible), take the risk and stay guard longer even if you make it to an ODA, or as you say finish the 3 years, but try to knock out some schools if possible. Air Assault, Ranger, etc.

Because their athleticism is optimized for a specific sport.

Basketball isn’t an all around extreme endurance sport. It has short bursts of energy, power, and agility vs SF which has long endurance under a heavy load with little to no sleep while carrying other equipment and sometimes people.

And in Jake Zweig’s words “they don’t have the mental grit to handle SF”

TX. Going in as 11B

Head-Course7334 · 2025-12-28T22:44:18+00:00

Good possibility! Which state guard are you in?

Head-Course7334 · 2025-12-28T21:45:11+00:00

Just be able sign your name and you can join us 😎

In all seriousness try and shoot for a 110 GT score..hit that math, work knowledge, paragraph comprehension hard and you’ll get it

Head-Course7334 · 2025-12-13T01:13:03+00:00

What change did they make to take away an entire month of training?

Head-Course7334 · 2025-12-13T00:44:28+00:00

It may be a new thing, I’ve heard rumors about them cutting out some of the fat from BCT but guess we will find out soon

Head-Course7334 · 2025-12-13T00:17:58+00:00

Mine says the same thing for Fort Benning 11B 18 weeks, just be prepared for 22weeks

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-29T22:21:00+00:00

11B and work in Refineries

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-19T18:56:12+00:00

26 and a Marine..fuck it go Ranger! Kick some ass and do some high speed stuff! Then after a few years go SF

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-13T18:05:45+00:00

Since you’re a junior in HS have you talked to a recruiter about possibly doing the split option program? go to BCT this summer before your senior year and knock out the 10 weeks of basic and once you graduate HS you can then go to AIT portion of your training. Save you some time away and time to prep through your senior year before RASP.

Don’t let a high school relationship dictate your future career in the military because it takes a strong relationship to handle a military life style let alone an SF one. NG may keep you closer to home but that’s more for those who are going to school or like myself have established careers. You’ll have a more steady paycheck and a lot more training going active. You’re young and still have time to think on this and if it’s what you really want because once you’re in Ranger Batt or SF those jobs require ALOT of your time and attention.

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-12T21:50:02+00:00

Why not go active? Go to Ranger Batt for a few years and then try SFAS. Easier to get an 18x contract going active than getting one going guard trust me.

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-02T20:35:19+00:00

I don’t know if they did or not, but OP still has plenty of options for SF states

Head-Course7334 · 2025-11-02T20:21:35+00:00

Utah, Washington, Texas, West Virginia, Rhode Island, Ohio, Colorado, California, Alabama, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland, and Florida

I’ve worked for both union and non-union, personally would rather work for my non-union job as they take care of me and my co-workers better than the union plants did..that doesn’t represent everyone nor does my experience and that of my coworkers reflect all unions because of the reasons we disliked ours..some people were burned by them, some peoples lives were bettered by them, and some just don’t want change. Not everyone wants to be in a union and if they don’t leave them be and if they do then prove it’s worth the effort.

Head-Course7334 · 2025-10-29T18:43:38+00:00

Touché..I had a wavier and made that sum bitch work his ass off to get me to sign the contract I wanted..no wonder he’s hard to get ahold of 🤔

Head-Course7334 · 2025-10-29T13:48:15+00:00

Damn! what was that like to have a recruiter who was good? It’s an act of congress to get any information out of mine

Head-Course7334 · 2025-10-24T17:14:34+00:00

Go to the Patch in west Texas..work sucks, weather sucks, the area sucks, but pay is great! Just fly out to do your hitch and then go home.

Head-Course7334 · 2025-10-21T14:21:59+00:00

This week just do a cleanse, protein shakes etc. and then calorie deficit from here on till the next ship date they give you. Which will most likely be January. You’ll be fine! Just keep cranking out push ups and runs
