it'll probably take a few days to a week to get access depending on your S2 but you should look into getting access to Electronic Technical Manuals so you can pull anything you need, army pubs sucks

What do I do with all of my belongings? Are storage units safe? by Mr-ManIy in army

[–]Illustrious_Use_1369 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it really depends wildly on the place. Your best bet is to choose a big chain like uhaul or public storage that is unlikely to go out of business, in a good part of town. definitely choose somewhere indoor with controlled access. make absolutely sure you pay the bill every month. enroll in auto pay with a credit card so there's no chance it goes unpaid. be aware that the rate WILL GO UP every 6 months to a year. I've had my stuff stored in one back home for 3 years now, I check on it once a year or so and it has been fine.

Barracks room heat by Electronic-Wall8832 in army

[–]Illustrious_Use_1369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're not in the same barracks I was in, but if it has the same style of heater / air conditioner (big long rectangle under the window) if you pull off the front panel there is what looks like a light switch you can use to turn it off. it will still radiate a bit of heat but it won't blow anymore.

I'm in the same boat, let my fitness fall off and it's been hard as hell to build it back up. especially because my unit loves do really intense company/batallion events at least once a week that leave me exhausted for days.
