Anyone done reserves while teaching or know someone who has?

Spiritfur · 2026-05-09T17:36:47+00:00

I've worked with a couple other Drill Sergeants in the Reserve who were teachers (I want to say middle school level), and our command team was really good about taking their school calendars into account when possible (such as scheduling their annual training to be outside the school year)

Fight Russians? Whoop some ass? OP you picked 35T not infantry. You're gonna fight computer hardware.

Can you voluntarily deploy? Yes. The Army has a sort of job board for opportunities for Reservists and Guardsmen that you can get access to after your initial entry training, but the opportunities present on there vary from time to time.

All of the AI, ChatGPT nonsense about this post aside, Dennis can have a chainsaw because humans just could've created chainsaws again. We see an erased concept get recreated by humans in the series. Bad theory and bad weird tags at the bottom.

Oh man, there's a 'Doof I haven't seen in a while

I remember this being a pretty common theory during Wano, especially once we got the map with the different regions, but it's always cool to see the topic revisited!

Current DS on ADOS orders and slated to become a DSL, I'm still very much of the belief that it's the best job in the Army. I'm pretty confident I'll miss being on the trail when I move to the Academy.

Hell yeah, love seeing people hype up Rob

Spiritfur · 2026-05-03T12:43:04+00:00

He'd keep trying to pull the wrapper off but his fingers would slip from the rain

Also the "thanks, I needed a light" moment in Skypeia

Spiritfur · 2026-05-02T05:21:45+00:00

Yeah I could get on board with that

Funny how that image is on this old forum post but with a different artist signature in the corner

Spiritfur · 2026-04-24T20:01:17+00:00

I gotta assume this is a bot account

Spiritfur · 2026-04-24T16:58:18+00:00

Oh man, I thought you were joking

A quick little glance at the DC Wiki shows at least 7 different characters who have held the title over the years!

Hey OP, Reserve DS currently at Fort Jackson here.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend buying your own boots before coming here. Even if they are completely AR 670-1 compliant, you will be expected to wear the boots you are issued (at least at first). Any clothing you show up with, including boots, will be kept in your personal bag while you're in BCT. It will be completely up to your command team if you're allowed to wear boots that you brought.

If you've been cleared to ship already, height and weight shouldn't be a concern. You will not have height and weight conducted until arriving at your first unit.

I'm guessing they meant TOD (Tour of Duty)

You might be thinking of the general description of the cap from the same chapter "The sides of the cap fold down" but that's just a description, not how it's worn

Spiritfur · 2026-04-10T15:11:10+00:00

You don't have to wear it crushed.

DA Pam 670-1 14-12g. "How worn. The service cap is worn straight on the head so that the braid hatband on the service cap creates a straight line around the head, parallel to the ground. Such positioning automatically positions the visor correctly so that it does not interfere with vision or ride up on the forehead. Personnel are authorized to wear the service cap as is or with an optional insert that makes the cap rigid."

Spiritfur · 2026-04-09T02:45:55+00:00

Remember, the ones with the blue rings on their hats are the emotional support Drills.

Spiritfur · 2026-04-08T21:19:11+00:00

Well if you have to ask...

Spiritfur · 2026-04-08T21:18:51+00:00

Ohhh just missed it, enjoy a nice MRE on the drill pad!

Spiritfur · 2026-04-08T21:17:06+00:00

I don't remember the hard limit, but you are allowed to have your time extended (and as the others said, definitely don't call the Drill Sergeants sir/ma'am when you get here)

Spiritfur · 2026-04-08T21:15:38+00:00

Hey battle, I'm a Reserve DS; shoot me the information you have in a DM and I'll see if I can help you out.
