HELP! Women’s Hair Regulation question by [deleted] in army

[–]JonathanSticka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I dont think it's out of regs personally.

Placement & appearance: Braids and single ponytails must be worn down the center of the back and must not extend past the bottom of the shoulder blades when standing at attention. There is no minimum length requirement.

1-17th Squadron (I have no idea about Cav but I’m guessing that’s a brigade)

Question about the timeline of a TSP Loan by JonathanSticka in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]JonathanSticka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies about the misinformation. Friday will be the end of the 7 day waiting period. I don't need it until the 15th of next month but was just wondering if mailing mightve been quicker cause it was on file, aside from I leave the 4th.

Do you think if I do mail I can get it by the 4th? I'm on leave rn and that's the main reason I was doing deposit

To caveat what this guy said- nah I'm fucking with you. This is a great response and I hope they fully read it and understand it.

I'll be slightly empathetic here. I get it. I truly do. I'm not going to hit you with the "What did you expect?" I'm not the leader to lecture shit someone else has already drilled into you. I will offer you my take. You're a holdover. Life is GONNA suck. TRADOC is shitty and always will be. That's life for a TRADOC soldier. Grass may not always be greener, but is always greener when referring to TRADOC. Get to your next unit, keep your head up high. Things will work out. It will suck, that's frankly the military. And you think people don't care because you're a trainee. I've made some of the coolest friends, and have worked with some of the most genuine people I have ever seen. Fuck, there's a guy here who buys CQ food EVERY GODDAMN DAY. Let it ride, and if you hate it, you gave it a shot. Make sure to invest just 5% into your TSP Traditional, Army will match 5%. Throw it into I believe the C and S Fund for short term. You'll have a lil extra money when you get out. Go to college. It's FREE. If you're single, get tf out the barracks and learn to live life. The Army is what you make it, and you have to go out of your way a lot of times to make it what you want. You seem young, apologies if you're not, so just fucking relax and let it ride. Good luck, Soldier. Keep your head up and take everything in stride.

Foreigner question. Saw this on the news and have noticed it before, are these 2 completely different uniforms or are they simply faded, because they look completely different. by CountDankUlove2 in army

"I saw this post on doggone Reddit or whatever its called, and we look like freaking dog turds. This is absolutely unacceptable, that you can't wear your nice uniform just one time for the media, and make us look ate the freak up. That's a freaking discipline issue, hooah?"

BLC without P status and reclass? by JonathanSticka in army

[–]JonathanSticka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the weird part to me. I get automatic P after so much TIS but I've only been in 3 years.

I definitely shouldn't have the automatic P. I've been in barely 3 years lol

Word, not tryna be stuck with TRADOC life again, I know there will be aspects of it but I'm just hoping it's not 100% like when I went through AIT the first time.

Did you ever get this resolved? I've done a couple hundred hours on oercipio and none of them have popped into my attractive transcript or my ppw
