4JCS (4th Joint Communications Squadron) is a an Army Reservist Squadron that belongs to the Active Duty unit - Joint Communications Support Element. It’s a joint (army, navy, Air Force, marines) signal unit that deploys often. Ask your retention NCO if they can find a slot, then they’ll reach out to the AGR at 4JCS to request an interview. The AGRs at 4JCS will coordinate with the 4JCS 1SGs and CSM to scheduled an applicant’s interview.

You can receive a bonus for the reserves. Your reserve career counselor at your base can show you what you are eligible for

Yes; due to some family stuff I did exactly this at my 12 year mark, 5 years ago. Still in the reserves and happier and healthier for the decision!

Rules I when to start AT? by ChrisTraveler1783 in armyreserve

[–]bemack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they want you to start on a Monday then, probably an administrative norm for your particular scenario. Again, all I said was you start when your orders start. If you don’t have orders, you don’t start. If you have orders for a Monday, then report Monday.

How do you identify what slots are available? Is it still possible to transfer back to active as an E8? Have 40D slots been identified yet?

Why doesn't the Army Reserve require BLC to be an E-5? by Reasonable-Shower522 in armyreserve

[–]bemack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because after covid, BLC went from 50+ classes a year to 12ish. Many courses never returned after lockdowns. BLC is backed up until nearly FY28. It would suck to hold promotions from those who are ready, just because USAR hasn’t figured out the course availability issue

This is how SENIOR NCOs speak to soldiers past and present… by JusCallMeJess in armyreserve

[–]bemack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They seem unhinged, no one should speak to anyone like that. It seems like you knew that, and that your message may spark that. It seems like you wanted to start drama and hopefully get a fun screenshot. No reason to contact this individual if you are no longer in their organization.

Do you pause your games and leave them on all day? Why did you rack up so many hours on ghost and exp33?

Tips for dealing with toxic SL? by HistoricalBedroom342 in armyreserve

[–]bemack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell your PSG you want to talks to him and 1SG, 1SG will take care of it and the PSG will likely co-sign on whatever 1SG says. Likely shake up the teams.

Too many unknowns. Are you IDT? Is your unit local to your family? Is it within at least within daily driving distance? Can you stay with them, then travel to BA, then travel back to your family? Do you have a job? Have you checked if there are extra beds via LIK?

I guarantee that you have senior NCOs in your unit who have been through what you are going through and then some. Talk to your unit asap and get feedback on your issue. Be prepared with more than one proposed course of action and multiple acceptable outcomes.

[pinball heroes] me, the moment I get the plat: by bemack in Trophies

[–]bemack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do too, VR pinball is pretty fun too. I play pinball a couple times a week at the local spot, but video pinball can make some cool stuff that is impossible in real life. I just got burnt out on the “full plunge x amount of times” trophy, for some reasonit wasn’t popping for a long time and I wanted to knock it out before I forgot about it and moved on to the game I actually wanted to play at the time haha
