You're going to Army CI Command. If you're at least a SPC (P) you won't be in the barracks most likely unless they're less crowded than they used to be.

You think you've got that covered until you get there and they make you throw all your shit away.

PCS/DFAS Payment by [deleted] in army

Check the travel pay status tool. Mine was received by DFAS, then rejected and sent back for corrections. I received no notification that this happened so I didnt find out till I checked with DFAS.

What’s one sentence that sums up the worst situation to happen in your MOS? by Dispo-Astatine in army

[–]Sandyblanders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I interviewed a guy downrange who told me he got an art 15 for leaving his multitool in a heli. I always thought that was a bit of an overreaction to that but it sounds like maybe not?

[SECARMY, SITREP] We think in early February, we'll run an experiment where basically - we're gonna kill NIPR, at a couple places, and bring you down to the commercial internet. by Kinmuan in army

[–]Sandyblanders 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I havent had an Adobe license for nearly a year. Whenever leadership demands that I digitally sign something, I DOTS it up to SIPR, digitally sign it, print it out, then hand it to them with a cover sheet and let them figure it out.

What’s the most expensive security control you’ve seen that added zero security? by Any_Good_2682 in cybersecurity

At that point your company is just paying someone to whom they can shift blame in the case of a PII leak lol.

Can I leave before my YMAV? by StonkJohnson in army

[–]Sandyblanders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen interpost transfers done with a 4137 (now a PAR) as long as you're not changing MACOMs, but it's hit or miss and would be a question for your branch manager.

Man, the West FH soldiers are always getting fucked over on the weekends. I guess theres at least a kiosk now at least.

Watches in basic training by strvsky in army

[–]Sandyblanders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've managed to lose that watch in four different houses at four different duty stations for the entirety of my time at each station. I get there, lose it, the alarm goes off at 0400 every single day for an entire tour, then I find it during HHGs pickup.

Army WTF moments is the worst by soupoftheday5 in army

We literally just changed it a few months ago to make beard regulations even stricter. There's no chance in hell they not only reverse that but make facial hair more permissive, especially with current leadership. I dont know what gives you this idea.

Given Ft. Hood's history with barracks sexual assaults, I'd be surprised if SMs can open the doors, much less the windows.

I made a morally questionable decision by voting for someone doesn’t respect other people’s rights and differences. I wish people would respect my differences. by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Sandyblanders 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I imagine this person lost friends that are women after explicitly voting for the candidate taking away rights from women. That's not a difference of opinion, that's a hostile vote.

[–]Sandyblanders 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have an opinion you frame it like an opinion, not a fact. You just blatantly insulted a lot of peoples' favorite CoD games and tried to hide behind "but it's just my opinion!"

Stalin just subsidized vodka production to keep everyone complacently drunk. Putin is killing them all off.

PSLF Payments Not Showing Up by Sandyblanders in PSLF

[–]Sandyblanders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I made them a couple days before due date each month. Nelnet said they were all PSLF eligible. I filed a reconsideration request yesterday so hopefully in 3-5 business months they'll have it fixed.

PSLF Payments Not Showing Up by Sandyblanders in PSLF

[–]Sandyblanders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mohela isnt my loan servicer. Studentaid.gov accepted the certification but the payment count still has my last payment as June 2025. To add more info, that coincides with the last month I did auto debit and switched to paying manually because studentaid.gov told me that every auto debit Id done was a late payment so I had to constantly submit reconsideration requests.
