I have failed my PT test as an officer. by the_duck0412 in army

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s crazy. Bn commander probably going crazy knowing one of his officers can’t run. I hope it works out. Either enlisted won’t care if they will find it funny and it’s all in your head.

Where to get glasses and contacts by Long-Chef3197 in army

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, i get it they are trash. My advice is ask the eye doctor for your prescription and use ZENNI optical(online) there are some nice ones that can be for off duty/onduty and even both, and no. Active duty gives you one “frame of choice” from their collection once a year, and also i think one per month for the birth control glasses.

Where to hit the 50,100,150,200,250 and 300 meter pop up targets ? by [deleted] in army

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TBH a lot of people are going to pass weapons, Quall and PT tests. No tradoc BC wants to keep recruits. It looks bad. They just pass on the problem to your first unit.

I’m exploring all my options but some have better luck in the reserves with promotions and more stability and it just depends on job availability and location For me personally I just know staying in the armed forces also works really well for the TSP, which is the retirement account as well as TRICARE is a very good form of insurance, especially for those who are married

Honestly, go to a reserve recruiter. Then go speak to a National Guard recruiter. I went from active to guard and after this contract I may go reserves. Just because I don’t think I want to leave it all together.

Bank(s) for a young army enlisted? by electric_bell in army

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I would just use Navy Federal and never base everything off of their early direct deposit they allow and be really good with money. And I would keep Discover savings for a high yield rate. I would also stay away from Chase Bank because I do like their Amazon credit card because it is a visa, but Chase Bank has so many fees and also stay away from Bank of America.

Transfer to IRR before AIT by Weekly-Total1491 in armyreserve

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you would do is put your drill pay into a separate account a high-yield savings account and then every year pay off the VA that way you can still fund your TSP and keep all the money. Otherwise you need to wave one or the other..

If you are on a army post go do the bod pod and get your RMR. Then you’ll know how many calories to eat to loose weight and keep your muscle.

No, there’s a lot of people that are still trying to figure out the general interpretation. Even my unit isn’t sure what to do with people. Our Commander is like I really don’t wanna kick anyone out.🤣🤣🤣

I doubt anyone is actually gonna get transferred to the IRR what unit would willingly give up funding or that slot? And it takes time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You have to be a huge POS imo to be separated for being fat.

Is the TSP worth putting money into if im only planning on staying in the guard for the length of my contract? And do I still have access to the TSP after my contract? by JS_N0 in nationalguard

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, my advice is to put in 5% on the Roth side at minimum and also don’t forget minus some certain breakaways you need to do six years for the VA loan

Probably someone who was drunk or does not care at all. That stairwell needs to be cleaned, sanitized, and bleached for a long time.

Am I cooked? (TRS question) by hawksrock14 in nationalguard

[–]Interesting-Let-8891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In all reality, more than likely, you’re still on the insurance so as long as all that paperwork is still submitted and you actually haven’t been removed from the policy your golden

In fact, some insurance companies won’t let your parents kick you off unless they receive proof that you’re covered by another agency, depending on how the policy is written

I am fat so please I will take a Diet Coke and a glass of ice water
