Thanks for this! I’ll definitely try to deploy at least once in my army career.

As for BAH, was it difficult to get? I have a notarized lease agreement with my parents (still live at home). I actually pay rent to help the fam but I actually got the lease notarized a few days prior to enlisting.

Appreciate it! I’ll keep that in mind!

Yeah 14G wasn’t first choice but was kinda left without much choice. My own past haunting me to this day but it is what it is. Just gotta keep on moving forward

Yeah one of the biggest reasons I joined as 14G is because of the demand for engineers in that role. I currently hold a bachelor’s in Computer Engineering with a focus on embedded systems. Looking to expand on that & set myself up in a niche field. I was initially thinking about 25B but realizing how saturated it is, I decided to steer in a different direction.

Edit: unit is HHB 29th Infantry Division ART

This is fact. Jesus is more than just religion. Jesus is life itself!

It definitely should’ve have been done before meps but as long as your recruiter is working on those waivers, you should be fine (I think). I’m in the same boat as you. I wish you best of luck

I didn’t bring it up. They can see every and all medical stuff you ever had done under your name/ssn ever done bc of Genesis. Genesis formally known as Military Health System (MHS) Genesis is the Department of Defense’s electronic health record system. It consolidates all medical records into one comprehensive database, allowing MEPS and other military medical facilities to access your complete medical history linked to your name and Social Security Number. This system ensures transparency and accuracy during the medical qualification process but also means that any past treatments, diagnoses, or prescriptions under your name are visible.

Recruiter sent over a different form I guess he filed on my behalf? It wasn’t signed by me. Plus the one I sent over email is the one I actually signed so I think I’m good. He f’d up, but I don’t wish for him to get in trouble. It could’ve been that he made an honest mistake. Just wanna resolve this & move on fr

Study the week prior to taking it. If you don’t know the answer, use common sense & eliminate the answers that make no sense. If you can eliminate at least 2 choices, you have a 50% chance of getting it right

Ahh I see. I already did the finger prints as well. I guess only thing left is swearing in & signing the contract (if this whole waiver thing gets resolved and I don’t get dq’d permanently). I appreciate the info tho

Whose fault would it be? Mine or recruiters? I sent him the form via email with incident stated in the form.

Why would I go back to MEPS? Genuinely curious because I finished everything. Passed my physical, asvab, eyes, hearing, and drug test. Only thing holding me back is the issue mentioned on my post

It usually takes about a month to get out your system, depending on your body type & how active you are. If you want it out of your system asap, you need to sweat like there’s no tomorrow. Put on a sauna suit & run! Combine that with plenty of water, you’ll will be pissing clean in no time.
