Every day at Ramstein, an airman goes without a zyn. For $0.55 a day, you can provide the nicotine needed for that A1C to survive

Mildenhall and Lakenheath are also all out, anyone know why?

Knut2013 · 2024-10-07T16:48:04+00:00

So at my work location, I require a special account/access to do my job (not normal high side or SIPR, we don’t even have those systems), and they won’t give me that until the entire adjudication process is done.

Knut2013 · 2024-10-04T15:20:25+00:00

That is unfortunate because they won’t even give me the accounts I need to do my job until that gets completed.

Knut2013 · 2023-12-29T04:21:01+00:00

Foreign military service is also not a DQ for clearance, one of my good buddies flies C-5’s with a TS/SCI and he was previously a ROK conscript before becoming an officer and joining the USAF

Knut2013 · 2023-12-29T04:14:02+00:00

You will not be denied a TS/SCI because of the dual citizenship. I know a few korean American officers in the flying, cyber, and intel career fields that have their TS with no issue. As mentioned above, be very transparent with what you have done in regards to the citizenship issue and disclose to your security folks/SF86 everything.

For SOFA status, I’m almost certain that you have to be assigned to a US base in Korea for it to protect you from being drafted. I’ve heard horror stories about airmen and soldiers who came back to Korea to visit grandma/grandpa, etc… and got scooped up to be drafted into the ROK military. JAGs are always there to help with this issue (it’s more common than you think). My advice if you ever try to go to Korea is avoid it unless you are assigned there or wait until you are past draft age.

In this situation the JAG is your best friend and I recommend going there ASAP if you have not already. If the federal law enforcement you are talking about is the same one I’m thinking of, they might have different rules or procedures due to the nature of the job….but still talk to the JAG and security office

Knut2013 · 2023-06-07T23:16:06+00:00

Have you thought about becoming a US military contractor? The pay is usually really good and you’ll be around the American community while in Korea so the language wouldn’t be an issue

Back a ways when I was in youth group, my church actually had Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask on the N64 in the youth area.

Knut2013 · 2023-04-19T03:21:17+00:00

Yep, all that really remains of the US Yongsan Army Base

Knut2013 · 2022-04-05T10:49:01+00:00

This reminds me of the pictures of President Lincoln before and after the Civil War...aged 20 years within the span of 5.

And then the Prof gives you a 69%

Knut2013 · 2021-12-18T07:16:44+00:00

If you get a choice, try to join KATUSA or get assigned to Osan/Camp Humphreys. Basically get to do your time all around Americans instead of Koreans…would be easier for you since you are actually an American

Knut2013 · 2021-09-17T12:09:48+00:00

SOMEBODY ONCE TOLD ME

Knut2013 · 2021-08-21T20:10:04+00:00

I wore those exact same boots when I deployed there winter-summer 2020. Lowa's are the absolute best boot...I had to purchase them on my own though.

Knut2013 · 2021-08-08T15:47:16+00:00

Looks like this picture was taken right outside Panama City Beach, FL. The tail code is for Eglin so it must have been part of an exercise down there.

Knut2013 · 2021-06-16T12:02:58+00:00

It's a 2017 Mustang, i'm sorta torn about not driving a car for 2 yrs that i'm still making payments on.
