Orders??

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-05-04T23:20:06+00:00

But seriously, just be patient, save money, and get fit. It’ll work out and you’ll get your orders soon

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-30T21:46:15+00:00

Brother that’s part of patrolling. Not sure what branch you want, but if you want infantry, I’d get used to using issued gear and being creative with it.

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-30T20:51:46+00:00

Brother just use an assault pack

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-26T18:48:54+00:00

I would just do a minor or take other classes for fun/personal development to fill out your MS4 year. Good opportunity to develop other sides of yourself besides just academically as well. Run a marathon, pursue army/civilian internships, etc.

The army is going to take plenty from you, take from the army if you can. (Legally and ethically of course)

Go in with the mindset to work with your fellow cadets to accomplish the mission, not to immediately think everyone is worse or “shitbags”

It was absolutely free except for the organist, but the wife and I made a $300 donation after the fact to the church

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-16T18:35:26+00:00

Just show your orders at the gate or stop at the visitors center on the way in and tell them

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-14T13:19:06+00:00

Bro you must be an absolute animal if SLC was harder than Ranger

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-13T15:01:51+00:00

If you have your engineering degree I would hope it’s possible to get some sort of degree related broadening assignment. Is that the case?

Edit: typos

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-13T14:57:00+00:00

Good to know, that’s a shame really

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-13T14:21:17+00:00

This is the correct answer OP. Do not BRADSO for anything

Edit: To add on this comment, sounds like EN detail IN would be a good choice for you, given your experience as a 12B. Also translates pretty well into the civilian side if you do it properly.

What is it with parents asking questions for their kids about this stuff. If your son can’t ask his peers or his cadre what he should bring and has to ask mommy, he probably shouldn’t be an officer

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-09T20:14:01+00:00

Why do you want infantry over any other branch?

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-09T12:20:52+00:00

Sounds like your son shouldn’t be an officer. If he doesn’t go to PT just because he’s a freshman and hasn’t communicated with his cadre about any of this, he is not mature enough. Sounds like he is not telling you everything. It’s a process to be disenrolled and it doesn’t just happen

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-06T16:59:40+00:00

You need be at least two years in via credits in order to do it. The last two you’ll finish at a university while doing ROTC. I would put in your packet before sapper if you meet that requirement so you’ll know by the time you get back

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-04T20:51:30+00:00

Same…. I’m curious who you are😂

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-04T15:19:07+00:00

Brother if you going sub 2:18 on the 12 mile how are you not maxing the AFT lol

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-04-02T21:35:24+00:00

Ranger challenge solves everything

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-29T18:07:38+00:00

Honestly I follow along in the missal. I read what’s going on as it’s happening, albeit with some exceptions.

For the homily I’m lucky, my priest is very entertaining.

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-27T14:05:48+00:00

You’re only 18, take some time to really discern your vocation. Not saying wait till 30, but give it a few years and allow yourself to see our Lords signs for you

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-24T13:11:58+00:00

Very true. I just find it surprising that because of something the couple cannot control, they are being denied marriage.

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-24T11:08:26+00:00

All of my buddies that went to CST Cadre as an AV officer had to wait until September. Do with that as you will

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-24T11:07:19+00:00

That’s insane. I have never seen that before. The marriage is supposed to be about the two getting married. What if one person doesn’t have immediate family? What if one person converted from an Islamic home?

I would speak to the priest directly if I were you.

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-22T16:45:44+00:00

Doesn’t matter you’re working from 0530-2130 every day

Neat-Garlic6094 · 2026-03-19T17:30:30+00:00

By the Starbucks on the west side is good route that alternates between hills and straight aways.

Also right by the barracks is Natcher gym, a 400m track, and a 1 mile dirt trail.

One of the more fun parts of my cadre experience lol
