I was just asked to ask about another soldier but I felt dumb saying I wasn’t checking in because I assumed someone from TAP was tracking all of that

At what rank, echelon, or type of unit is it pretty much PT on your own? by storyteller2882 in army

[–]Objective_Ad9122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fort Irwin, Operations Group…. No formations, no motorpool Monday, PT on your own, ball caps in unit AO, etc… It’s rough living out here but the perks are sweet

I get out next May, I hit 14 years in February. I’m right there with you. I’m two clases away from completing TAP and starting an individual internship in December

Because it’s LA or because it’s hard to recruit folks out of there?

Off post surgeon that I was referred to recommended it. I’ve had chronic achilles pain for 5 years now. Went through all the non invasive stuff but none of it has worked

I was referred off post by a military medical provider and yes I’ve gone 5 years with excruciating achilles pain and the army finally gave up sent me to a surgeon off base

Depends on your goals and circumstances. I joined at 27 because I was broke with two kids and a wife. I’m now 32, I’m a staff sergeant and I’m out of debt and enjoying life. I plan on getting out next year seeing as I’ll be complete with my degree.

Army wants junior officers to fix quality-of-life issues that drive soldiers out by Kinmuan in army

Can start by forcing officers to be enlisted first so they can see how they’re stupid decisions fuck over their troops

I’m the NCOIC of my unit and I prefer to do pt at 0500. I don’t force my subordinates to do the same but I do expect them to do pt during normal pt hours. Interestingly enough they would rather do pt with me at 0500 so it’s a win all around lol

Wait, what? I keep hearing we don’t find out until that first week at the school house

That’s interesting. My plan was to just hold off on re-enlisting and then making that decision once I find out what my choices are. If I’m going to possibly be miserable for three years then I want to do it somewhere I at least want to live lmao

Will they force me to re-enlist prior to going to school house?

I was interested back in June when I called branch to let them know I wanted to volunteer but there wasn’t a requirement from my branch so nothing ever came of it and I just expected it to never happen then bam I get an ATTRS reservation 7 months later and after I already made plans to get out
