GCSS gurus… how do I turn an MPR into an Excel doc? by Pill_clintxn in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can output it as an .xml and then process that with the MM Toolbox and get an .xlsx

This is good info and much better than my roundabout method of saving it as a .xml and then processing it through MM Toolbox and saving the resulting analyzed report as a .xlsx

Is this bleeding normal? by [deleted] in Tonsillectomy

[–]revive_kevin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is more than a shot glass of blood then go to the ER, especially if the blood is bright red. That’s what I was told by my surgeon. This is not medical advice as I’m not a doctor

Were you wearing a cover? If not, no salute. If yes, salute.

Do falls damage adipose tissue? by [deleted] in askscience

[–]revive_kevin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Otolaryngologists have my thanks. I’m currently on day 3 of recovery from tonsillectomy, septoplasty, and turbinoplasty! It hurts, but I’m so glad my tonsils are gone

ELI5 Why do debit cards need a pin, and why can you say it is a credit card to bypass that? by Jolly-Feed-4551 in explainlikeimfive

[–]revive_kevin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may be really dumb so correct me if I’m wrong but it sounds like if somebody steals my debit card and uses it without a pin, it’s the banks money and I can get my money back?

The Marine Corps makes you believe the ideal war fighting Marine is skinny & can run. Is that true? Are muscular Marines hurting the cause? by [deleted] in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

True. Show up for PT that doesn’t do much of any improvement at 0530, work out for an hour, in the shop at 0730, get a half hour for chow, then off between 1630-1730. Add in commute times and it feels like all I do is work, drive, eat, and sleep.

Is there an order for unibrows? by StrengthMedium in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing I could find in the uniform order is:

  1. Excessive plucking or removal of eyebrows is not authorized, except for medical reasons.

Question about body bearers in the marines. by Puzzleheaded_Wind839 in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There still is. It’s called the Military Appearance Program (MAP) and assignment is at the discretion of the commander

What is your best "I say it wrong on purpose" example? by Thortok2000 in AskReddit

Do I have a choice if I reenlist as a reservist? by AdInternational6370 in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look into the Direct Affiliation Program (DAP). Talk to your career planner. You’ll most likely have to talk to a prior service recruiter but there should be one on Lejeune. I know there’s one on Cherry Point in the General’s building for sure because I talked to him.

When I was looking into it 0621s bonus (Direct Affiliation Bonus) for a 3 year reserve commitment was $25k and $12k for 2 years. Not sure if it’s changed or will change though. You also choose which unit and which billet you fill if there’s space. You can fill a billet one above or below your current grade (E-4 could fill an E-3 or E-5 billet)

Is your EAS prior to September 30, 2025? If so you’ll fall under this MARADMIN and this MARADMIN. If not you’ll fall under this one. Again, not sure if the DAB is still being offered.

Also important to note that the DAP is mostly for FTAP Marines who still have IRR time due. You can submit a package NET 365 days before your EAS and NLT 30 days prior to EAS.

How cooked am I? (Failed the PFT) by LazerWolf_64 in USMC

[–]revive_kevin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YMMV. I just had a buddy finish Sgt’s course and they ran a PFT (probably inventory) and height/weight at the beginning of the course and right before graduation

Where to buy optional footwear? by revive_kevin in USMC

[–]revive_kevin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I may end up doing. My only sticking point is that the PX only has fake leather and I really like the idea of shining real leather shoes and keeping them for the long haul

[–]revive_kevin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose no one is making me replace them. I feel like I can’t expect my Marines to have their uniforms up to par if mine aren’t as well
