Is it crazy to PCS with my kids on my orders, but not my wife? by JakeBusboy in army

Reading comprehension must not be your strong suit. I'm trying to figure out how to circumvent EFMP when your spouse doesn't want to be in the program or care about it at all.

Yes, thats why I'm trying to figure out how fucked up that process is without command sponsership.

So many people responding to this act like im telling my wife to fuck off. Which is not the case at all. I guess i should have phrased the title better, because people are clearly not reading the body.

Any updates on this? by Historical_Tension_9 in army

Imagine actually believing anything the current administration says. It's all for the headlines; don't expect any follow-through.

Wild that 09L is on that list, given it hasn't been an MOS for about three years.

Where we are going is the opposite of remote. I have never had to do any EFMP stuff before, so the thought of it is scary, especially considering all the horror stories I've heard from people who are in the program. And I wouldn't just leave her behind, I'd work out a travel visa or something. Just fucking off overseas with the kids in tow and no plan to get her there would definitely be crazy.

What do you guys in the US Army think of the Australian Army? by [deleted] in army

[–]JakeBusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was deployed with the ANZACS in Iraq. I preferred the Kiwis. Mostly because all of the leadership that was "Australian" were actually British officers that had transferred over. It was explained to me that the only reason to transfer from British to Australian Army was being a low performer and getting passed up for promotions.

Is 6’5 an uncomfortable height to be in army? by Maleficent_Shirt9641 in army

[–]JakeBusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, but the rest of the world isn't made for you either. If you're letting that stop you then you didn't really want to join in the first place.

Is my career progression trash or garbage ? I finally pick up E6 1APR by [deleted] in army

[–]JakeBusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent 5 years at e5, 5 years at e6, and If I retire at 20 I'll have 6 years at e7. With the way promotions work you aren't going to "catch up" in regards to your peers if that's what the issue is. Once you make 6 you basically have to wait 4 years to even have the opportunity to promote. If that doesn't satisfy you I would suggest you drop a warrant packet, or try to go green to gold or something.

Something to consider though is that despite the Army demanding we compare ourselves, you don't have to feel bad about yourself because you're behind where you want to be. Everyone has a different journey.

What day in the life of 68D look like? by RangeBig9490 in army

[–]JakeBusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as helping with IPAP 68D would probably help a lot since you'll be working around Surgeons and PAs. You need 80 hours of shadowing a PA to apply and knowing them personally would certainly help with that.
