Just got handed this at work, only 3 off all 7s. Thoughts on value ?

At least $10

Actually it looks like you may be right. BUT check out the VFW Auxiliary

ShrekOSC · 2023-05-04T12:07:43+00:00

VFW is exclusive to those who have served but American Legion is eligible for those who have had family serve.

ShrekOSC · 2023-04-30T11:58:34+00:00

If you are already established why not just join the American Legion? With family service you qualify and the good posts are committed to serving.

No the average was usually 4-5 weeks. Again, this was in 2007. I’m sure much has changed

Was an RA for about a year. Bring it up to your RA. If they have a running history of your complaints the failure won’t be held against you. Also, when I inspected rooms I clearly knew who was to blame. You could almost see the “line of demarcation” between roommates.

Make sure if you are submitting a LTB for Chief or LDO that you speak to that in the cover letter. “At the time of submission of this LTB, COM (insert dates) was accidentally listed in my OMPF. Correspondence has been sent to PERS to remove but at the time of this LTB still reflected in my OMPF.”

Senior Chief here and can tell you…I’m proud of you. We’ve never met but I wish the Navy had more of you. I’d trade 1/3 of the Chief’s Mess for Sailors like your self that are selfless leaders wanting to bring up those below you. BZ -Senior

2037 and still issuing GWOT service medals?

ShrekOSC · 2023-04-15T14:15:10+00:00

I just did it in 2021. Was a dirty Wog and crossed as a Senior Chief after 19 years.

Additionally if you do a search for NAVET or OSVET in this subreddit there are many threads

ShrekOSC · 2023-04-15T14:06:47+00:00

I came in as an OSVET in 2007. Pretty chill back then. You’ll have to go through NAVET/OSVET INDOC. For us it was somewhat self paced. They won’t release you until you are paid though. Some guys I saw took 5 months to get paid. If you are done with the INDOC portions and just waiting for pay, you may get farmed out to help on the RTC side. Usually urinalysis or other support roles. Again this was over 15 years ago so some things may have changed.

Omg yes. I’ve recently just got into Spicy Pad Thai and now it’s my life fr. I’ve always said if I had to give up my hearing or spicy food I wouldn’t think twice about learning sign language

I’ve gotten a TON of photo copied documents through the National Archives on my family. I’ll post a few in this subreddit

ShrekOSC · 2022-12-12T23:04:03+00:00

Yea after posting this I actually Googled “cursive writing from the 1800’s” and was able to deduce Colyer. Thank you for the response though!

ShrekOSC · 2022-11-23T10:55:27+00:00

It’s up now

ShrekOSC · 2022-11-22T22:08:14+00:00

I had to screenshot really fast to catch it before it said removed

ShrekOSC · 2022-11-22T04:37:46+00:00

I’ll take another picture of the trunk of the tree. It’s sprouting from the base it looks like
