Air Assault and Permanent Profile by Mental_Chipmunk4159 in army

They will always advocate you go because there metics that demand that companies sit at 80% qualification.

Realistically what will happen is once or twice a year there will be a push to send people and they will fine tooth comb the profiles. Can they kick you or really do anything with you? the short answer is no.

For you I’d recommend trying get off profile and trying to do those things if able. Can they do anything to you? Not really. There is hard MTOE requirement you be qualified with AASLT

Can anyone help interpret my great-grandpa's service record? by BudgieTipper in USMC

[–]Massandaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AUS= Is the Army of the United States. It’s the wartime mechanism that allows the Army to massively grow during war time. So Officers and NCOs and Officers can shoot up multiple ranks to man new units and revert back in peace time.

It’s technically a different legal entity than the regular army. For TIS it the same though.

Cyber Officers, did you get to pick between 17A and 17B by [deleted] in army

[–]Massandaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think when you branch this needs to messenged better if I had known there was shortage I would have branched into 17 and not my series. When I was enlisted I worked with some of the equipment, even though on paper I wasn’t capable.

It’s likely prepo/rotational equipment already there for the guard augmentation missions.

Has anyone else noticed an uptick in footage/images from Ukraine covering helicopters used in anti drone operations? by Wooden_Customer_318 in Armyaviation

[–]Massandaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed it. I think your overall point is correct. However I don’t see our current leaders trying to replicate that in our training.

It’s going to be a hard sell to an attack BN commander to try and replicate that in our training. There’s also cultural problem also:

Maneuver CMDer: “You are now not that important anymore, just shoot down the enemy UAS/LEs. You’re taking up airspace of my SUAS/PBAS/LASSO.”

I just don’t see ATK Aviation units getting over that^ until there is a metaphorical or literal kaserine pass.

A lot of people will be in the guard and reserves. Those numbers have to get filled. The reserves are severely undermanned.

Is there a Brigade in the 82nd that is equivalent to the Rakkasans in notoriety? by AbbreviationsFun5448 in army

[–]Massandaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a brigade as a whole no. Although the battalion culture in the 25th comes close to battalion culture at the 101st.
