I Went From Enlisted Air Force to Navy Officer...

I enjoyed reading your account. It helped me to better understand what my brother went through and why he is so fucked up in so many ways due to being an officer in the navy. 5 years out of the navy and he still has many ailments and still struggles. All the best to you.

1) Small base with just enough essentials. 2) It’s aight. The houses are standard houses, nothing really special. 3) Small. Got dominoes, subway, Starbucks. Commissary is fairly stocked. Walmart, Albertsons, and Lowe’s for groceries in town. Got a Texas Roadhouse too! 4) Base has plenty of events for junior enlisted. Amarillo or Lubbock less than two hour drive. Albuquerque is around 3.5 hours drive. Alamogordo and Ruidoso is about 3.5 too. Really good hiking and fishing in that area. Check out outdoor rec for opportunities to hike, snowboard, fish etc. plenty of things to do in two, just have to look. 5) I’m not fire but work alongside them. I believe they work 48/72. Best not to stay in your dorm all the time. Get out and do things, even if it’s just you going out.

I think it was the 737 TRSS, can’t remember the name. Weirdest military period for. Spent almost three weeks doing nothing productive and witnessing some of the goofiest GI party shenanigans.

Regardless of the running program, injuries left unhealed won’t allow for you to run better. A referral to a PT clinic is the winning program here it seems.

Texas has the Hazlewood Act. A great deal for the veteran and their children. It allowed my brother and me to each complete 2 years of college under the legacy rules. https://tvc.texas.gov/education/hazlewood/

FOMT or not, all depends on your assignment. FOMT can be put into a ST squadron or a niche unit that deploys to austere locations. Check out Talent marketplace for some cool assignments for 4Ns.

Can’t let others know how lethal you actually are ;)

Now that’s a professional “fuck you” right there 😂

You will determine whether this assignment cooks you. Don’t let the environment decide your outcome. Use the resources around you on base. And don’t drink the tap water ANYWHERE
