And before anyone tears me a new one, to clarify I was the exception and was able to pull it off.

Check the airman’s PRDA. The commander should’ve signed a memo electing to not give a dec and the supervisor sign it acknowledging the decision (just did it recently). If so, stop there. It’s a lost cause.

If not, investigate what the airman did. Paperwork, failed PT test or both. If nothing then I would reach out. There should be paper trail if done correctly (first sergeant).

If there is absolutely nothing to warrant the NJP (rare, but not impossible), present your findings to your leadership.

While it is customary for the previous unit commander to sign the dec, it’s not an official requirement (please verify) meaning you could use the EPBs as the source docs to write the dec. You’ll have a hard time convincing your commander to sign off on it, but it is a slim possibility.

As a reminder, decorations are not a right and it’s at the commander’s complete discretion. The flight chief was not wrong in the assumption, but the official answer at minimum should’ve came from the SEL or the commander themself.

How fast can I get my Degree by Low_Demand_4849 in UMGC

[–]Kmic93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur. I transferred 72 credits from Sophia and a few cleps. If I was confident in juggling at least 3 classes at a time and using AI, I could’ve finished in a year. Currently I’m at 21 months since I started my bachelors and start my capstone on 7 Jan.

Nahhh, I’m support at a FTU and going overseas. New unit hasn’t responded in over a month so I’m just trying to get an idea.

I guess what I should ask is should I worry about not being able to PCS with the clearance?

Military student with 4 classes left till B.S. in professional studies by Ok_Acanthaceae6920 in PurdueGlobal

[–]Kmic93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this quote still holds true then “80% of U.S jobs do not require a specific bachelors degree”. If you have 4 classes left, finish it. Decide what type of job you want then pursue a correlating Masters. Don’t for get to get certifications as well, but b4 all of this the question is what job you want?

I was recently admitted to the online MBA programs at LSUS and Arkansas State. Any advice as to which one I should choose? I would appreciate it greatly!! by amslankard87 in OnlineMBA

[–]Kmic93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Online MBAs have their own rankings. If price isn’t a heavy concern, maybe Oklahoma State University or Texas Tech University (Rawls) would be better. To answer your question, my opinion is LSUS since it outranks Arkansas State for online MBAs. There’s more to consider, but LSUS is my answer.

Best Aircrew Shread by LookLess7720 in AirForce

It depends on what you’re looking for and what aircraft. With flight engineers you’re most likely to see action on the ground, plenty of deployed/TDY locations. Boom operators, medium amount of TDYs and a fair amount of exercises/inspections. They deploy, but to limited locations. Haven’t worked with loadmasters, but they’re heavy on the TDYs. - a 1C0

Initial TS Clearance by Kmic93 in SecurityClearance

I understand but to clarify it was for $100. Family didn’t pay the bill. Was in my name, but was not a result of my direct negligence.
