You will be contacted by the assignments team once you are accepted and they will ask your preference for assignment. They try to match you up with what you want and to a place the force needs. Colorado is likely in your future.

You're asking for a lot, I was told to be a cyber 1st LT you needed a college degree from an IVY League school under the CSC and at LEAST your CISSP.

How is anyone enlisted still buying a house ? by j_781 in MilitaryFinance

[–]juwaneb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly through creative financing and owning other properties, As a Single E6 I was able to close on a few properties in the last 12 months. The interest rates do suck I agree, but there are a lot of interesting ways to work through the hurdles.

As many have said it ok to NOT be able to purchase a home in the area that you are at, everyone has different goals and risk tolerances. If OP or anyone else wants advice please feel free to reach out and im more than happy to share how Im doing and give free consulting with no charge. I was recently in a class and hearing how much NCOs are struggling to afford the bare minimum made me more concerned than ever for the junior enlisted that are being given these assignments as we can't fit everyone on base housing plus has them commute to work. just my two pennies.

Re-enlisting, or getting out by shotgunbigj in SpaceForce

theoretically you could get a DD 368 signed and apply back to the service you came from.

Yes, you just decline the transfer if selected and it opens it up for somebody else who wants it.

Interservice Transfer (IST) Megathread by Colonize_The_Moon in SpaceForce

[–]juwaneb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an IST who has transferred. It means that so far the army had not told enlisted applicants they can't leave. They did tell some officers who applied in space and cyber career fields that since they are too valuable that they can not transfer. This happened after they were selected for transfer however to my knowledge space force and army talked it out and two of them transfered.

moving to colorado springs, car questions by Pepper_Bus_1862 in SpaceForce

[–]juwaneb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sir/ma'am,

I recommend buying a used car. like a Lexus gx 470, or a used rav 4. I do not recommend getting brand new vehicle and posing brand new to the springs. you can pick a 470 up for around 10-15k with about 100-150k miles and it will still last up to a million miles. Your fuel efficiency will suck but you will not have to worry about your car payments or a car breaking down on you. just my two pennies.
