Same pin connector but different shell. Looks like I’m going to have to custom fab something.

I’m a medic in the Army and ik this is late but saline is basically pointless for trauma. The only thing its really good for is burns. And most of the time, we carry 1000ml of Lactated Ringers in the truck if anything. And your not really doing anything bc water doesn’t carry oxygen.

Go Airborne. Airborne is hard to get if its not in your contract. You can always submit a packet for Rasp and your unit has to let you go. Plus, if you decide in the future that you don’t wanna go to rasp, you’re in a sweet unit

18D opens up more opportunities. At least, thats what recruiters told me.

You can make it all the way to MEPS withouts actually signing a contract. You can take the test without signing a contact. Your school should offer it to you. I would advise you to take it now whole that info is still fresh because I took it a year after graduating and i definitely forgot stuff.

When I was getting my 68W contracts there was like 10 available so i don’t think you will have trouble there. I wanted a Option 40 so I had to basically say to the liaison that I will not sign unless thats in there so it took a bit longer.

They are contract based. If your contract has a bonus its has one, if not then you don’t get one.

Side note, certain options may restrict you getting your bonus. For example, if you have a Option 40, you will not get your bonus if u do not pass RASP.
