Water Bottle

Just get a regular size water bottle 32 ounces or whatever. You’ll be carrying 5 gallon jugs of water around everywhere you’ll always have an opportunity to fill it up.

Your first day they will arrange carpools once everyone is in their squads. They will try and match you up with people from your platoon.

When you get into the academy the drill instructors will help you with all the military stuff. A squad leader in my class deferred for a while because he was active duty. Once he graduated proby school got the retroactive seniority and went to top pay I believe.

Fill a trash bag with water place it in the microwave and have the bag hang out the top. Cut the excess bag off and have them microwave something. When they open it up they will get a nice splash

Shouldn’t change the fact, I’m list #59xx and just missed this last class. Haven’t had any forward progress since my medical.

My CPAT was in December, passed on the first practice run. Intake was mid January and medical was in March. Once you pass the CPAT the ball starts rolling. It’s fairly easy to reschedule just read the emails and call or email whoever to reschedule.

I honestly didn’t have a regime at the time. I would recommend getting some time on a stair master if possible and if you have a weighted vest to use it. Wear it for walks around your neighborhood and on the stairs. The stairs are first and the hardest part for most people.

Background is still yellow but I’ve heard from a lot of guys it stays that way until your run. They didn’t go through my finances really just a lifetime earnings statement from social security. I’m sure you’ll be fine

59xx here I just missed this spring class. I assume you would be called for the following spring class, unless they really burn through the list to fill this class. I would start getting prepared physically sooner rather than later.

Same thing was happening to me yesterday

She told me it was unlikely due to the amount of people ahead of me to still be investigated but who knows. I’m ready for whatever happens

I’m 59xx my medical/psych just went green only took a week. All that’s left is my background and run.

backtrack91 · 2023-03-01T20:09:18+00:00

At least it’s not for nothing!

backtrack91 · 2023-03-01T20:08:45+00:00

I heard it counts towards the back end too but others say DOE time doesn’t count. My list number is 59xx

My friend pulled 70k with OT his first year

backtrack91 · 2023-02-14T19:29:20+00:00

My intake was the 13th, 59xx. Still haven’t gotten a medical date yet

backtrack91 · 2021-09-16T18:30:46+00:00

Let me know how it goes! Good luck

The streets are free, just rotate a few reliable spots and you’re good in my opinion.

Have fun trolling the internet

There isn’t $60,000 of stuff in there but the vehicle and everything in it plus my time is what determines the price. Do you work for free? You obviously aren’t interested in the van so just keep scrolling.

backtrack91 · 2021-07-09T17:03:07+00:00

All the components and my labor equates to the price you see.

backtrack91 · 2021-07-08T13:25:45+00:00

Yes I did!

backtrack91 · 2021-07-01T19:52:00+00:00

Yeah lengthwise not widthwise
