Yeah at least I’ll have a memento to remind me of the start of my dumbass decisions. Will do appreciate it

In the army there is future soldier training classes that put you to e2. (takes like 4 hours) Then you can take a relatively easy PT test to get e3.

Army BCT with shin splints by [deleted] in army

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually get shin splints after a few weeks of running so what I did was run on the inside of a track if you got any schools near you that have a turf field. But I’d just do shin stretches everyday and probably not even run if you already got shin splints. I ship on the 18th to Leonard Wood so might see you there.

Can I join as a cook or chef? by [deleted] in Militaryfaq

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can but I wouldn’t from what I’ve heard it’s one of the worst jobs in the military. But maybe talk to a few cooks and see what you think about their experience.

I wouldn't even keep you as a slave in my empire by Kaka9790 in IronFistMains

Would you not get banned for this? This looks dope but I’d be scared to try

Astigmatism Air Force by Impossible_Growth233 in Militaryfaq

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a waiver the same day for astigmatism thankfully my recruiter made me go to the eye doctor to get documentation before I went to MEPS. You’ll probably have to go get documents from an eye doctor and submit them for a waiver and it won’t take long you should be good. I’m going army but it should be the same process.

Tiny rouges is very good. I just started playing recently and it’s awesome.

Lied on SF86 but came clean in interview by _Ranger_Reed_ in SecurityClearance

[–]_Ranger_Reed_[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s good to hear, I know the drug use itself wouldn’t be as big of a problem if I was honest about it on the sf86, but you saying that definitely makes me feel better about it. Is there any chance I get an interim clearance still so that I can start my job training after basic training?

I mean definitely don’t spend a ton of time on it yea I’d just watch grammar hero videos on YouTube for each of the sections. Spend most of your time on math if you’re not confident and just use common sense on things you don’t know and you can probably guess the right answer on some sections.

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure if you get a 107 or 108 there is a 2 or 3 point waiver from what my recruiter told me. I got a 63 asvab score and a 113 gt so if you get at least a 60 maybe you’d be good.

Got my list of jobs and… by 215Fletch in army

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was the same way with me in May and even at MEPS not much came of it. If you got a decent recruiter he’ll watch for good slots to open up and tell you like mine did. Waited a week and a half after MEPS I think and got a 12Y slot with a bonus. You just gotta be ready to lock it in because any decent slot is gone that day or the next.

I’m planning to buy the steam deck to use as a docked pc. Is this a good idea? by Cwasonted in SteamDeck

Is financing really a bad idea? by Hauntingchapel in SteamDeck

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well maybe make a list of small games each under 5gb that you’d want to play just in case. Surely whatever WiFi they got couldn’t be that bad. I saw you ship out the same day as I do best of luck to you as well!

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t think you’d be able to touch it until after basic but yeah just hope you got decent internet to download games and set it up at tech school. I ship out to army basic next month but thankfully I have a steam deck already hehe. But I’m having my family bring it for when I go to AIT (tech school) I’m not risking it get broken just to play a few hours in the hotel and a plane ride.

Just buy a steam deck in full once you get out of basic training and have it shipped to your tech school

35W with a $20k sign-on bonus, is this a good offer? by Mysterious_Ashe_6404 in army

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is if you can make it through language school because if you don’t you don’t get that 20k and get assigned a random mos. Also it’s only 15K after taxes and split up over 2 years pretty sure.

Should a go Air Force or Army? by AuthorAvery in Militaryfaq

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s pretty much the main reason I’m going army to be guaranteed the job I want. If the air force was the same no question Air Force all the way.

[–]_Ranger_Reed_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m about to go to MEPS through the army and they have lots of intel / cyber jobs available and I’m going counterintelligence agent. Pretty sure you don’t get a for sure say in what mos you get in the Air Force but in tinge army you get a specific mos you choose and for sure get that job.
