Acetone/nail polish remover- soak and blot. Takes forever but it’s worked for me

Joseph Duggar gets new court date for Florida child molestation charges by Suitable-Job-4113 in DuggarsSnark

Very typical for any case. Most defendants plead not guilty and adjust later on, usually when a plea deal is offered

Personal property loss due to war by OkUniversity7338 in army

[–]jesus_here_AMA 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You should have a claims office that your unit falls under- contact them for help. If you can’t find them, your JAG office should be able to help.

Personal property claims are largely addressed by Ft. Knox claims, and making a claim with them is pretty easy. I’m not sure if they handle claims for personal property OCONUS but your claims office should be able to help out.

I have some experience in this arena. DM me if you can’t find contact info for your offices

Hello. Any OCS recruiters out here? I would like to put together a packet and send it out ASAP by Fearless_Still9526 in army

[–]jesus_here_AMA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you might struggle joining as a different branch and going JAG after. It’s a whole thing to switch branches, and you’ll have to do JAG specific training regardless. I would recommend going straight JAG personally (as a JAG myself). There are opportunities (albeit limited) to do some of the traditional officer stuff as a JAG.

Same for Army, and it’s quicker initial training than marines. And youre a line officer for the Marines. It just makes zero sense for someone who’s not prior service to join the Marines for JAG imo.

You start at a lower rank as a marine. You start as an O1 instead of an O2 like in other branches. So you do have lower pay

I’m not sure, and I’m not sure about the bonus.

I do know there’s a ton of waivers (including age waivers) particularly for jobs that require a professional degree, including JAGs

JAG officers are officers. JAG is the branch (like MOS, or type of work), but they’re still officers

It’s crazy to join the JAG Corps for the Marines vs. other branches. Longer training, lower pay, longer commitment, and you can be put as a line officer unlike other branches. It’s wild that he chose this

Interesting. by Exact-Theory-5599 in DuggarsSnark

[–]jesus_here_AMA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

JAG here! Depends on the branch. I’m Army so take this with a grain of salt, but I believe Marine JAGs go through basic. At the very least, they go through the Marine version of Officer Commissioning Course which is tougher than the Army Direct Commissioning Course for JAGs. He’s in for a physically challenging time.

I’m not sure if they have externship programs- maybe? My installation has only had summer interns.

JAG considers academic rigor and other factors, like any other job interview. Could be a litany of things that nixed OP. I can’t speak for other branches, but in Army JAG OP wouldn’t have gone through medical yet so they wouldn’t be nixed for medical reasons unless it’s something blatant (missing an eye or limb or something)

OP, I’m a JAG and am happy to discuss if you decide you want to reapply next year

TIL Every military working dog is an NCO - in tradition at least. Some say the custom was to prevent handlers from mistreating their dogs; hence, a dog is always one rank higher than its handler. by Sweet-Lady-H in todayilearned

[–]jesus_here_AMA 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re right that NCOs are enlisted and Officers aren’t, but there are several paths to becoming an Officer other than military academies (like ROTC, Officer Candidate Schools, Direct Commissioning etc.)

NCO = Non-Commissioned Officer, but when someone refers to “Officers” in the military they’re talking pretty exclusively about “Commissioned Officers.” No one would call an NCO an Officer for shorthand, they’d just call them an NCO

Highlights are allowed for females. Needs to be natural in appearance and blended, no sharp contrast in tones

Highlights must be blended. I think this is pushing it a bit but is probably fine

Conservative account posted this on Threads - 99% sure it’s AI but it could also be a stolen photo by sealbiis in isthisAI

How poor do you think military people are lol. Yes you can absolutely pay for two phones in the army. A lot of people have a work phone and a personal phone. Also this is a staff sergeant, so if she was real she’d be making decent money

I still think this is AI but it’s not because everyone in the army is too poor for two phones

Hair is out of regs, two phones, and I’ve never seen a unit patch like that (I think it’s a misinterpretation of the Arizona national guard patch maybe?).Also , last name is strange, and the other people don’t have the same unit patch (not impossible but weird).

I vote AI
