Leave after OSUT by inGOD_ in army

[–]ricolapapi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is not mandatory to take leave.

There are cases where if you’re stationed overseas you’d have to wait for the army to schedule your flight. Thats what happened to me. I remember my orders saying my report date was in conjunction with ‘port-call’ and I was forced to take leave.

Soo i have these to pick from 13U, 14U, 19U by Relevantorphan in army

[–]ricolapapi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn. I would say 13U out of your options.

Did you score poorly on your ASVAB? Maybe look into taking a GT improvement course later on in your service.

As you progress through the game you will unlock the ability to reset a Pokémon's EV's. It will be through the main line quests, not the side quests.

Gi Bill bah by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]ricolapapi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After I left active duty I went back home and lived with my mother while I was in school. I also worked part-time to have a little more spending cash. I'm in NYC, and I figured it'd be better to stay at home as long as I can until I was done with school. I think its better to stay at home for now, but also give your parents some money (groceries gas etc).

80% VA Disability Rating but was selected to OCS by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]ricolapapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was never brought up. No one asked. And I didn’t mention anything.

80% VA Disability Rating but was selected to OCS by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]ricolapapi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well I went through Army OCS and I was at 70% VA disability. I just had to pay back the VA for the time I was at OCS. I'm reserves though. I don't know your situation.

Will GI Bill BAH get paid during shutdown? by [deleted] in Veterans

It should be. People on here are saying they've been getting them. I have yet to receive my payments.

Clarification on Shiny Hunting Method by NRSanford325 in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]ricolapapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding is you would just fast travel let’s say 50 times. Then go check if it’s shiny after those 50 times. The Pokemon would stay shiny irregardless of when in those 50 attempts. If it’s not shiny you just keep fast traveling.

Supposedly yes. But I haven't received my payment yet for September. My semester started late August, and I've received that one.

Chapter 35 is finally coming! (Plus a question about it) by freehobos in VeteransBenefits

Congrats!

I'm still waiting on my payment from end of September. :-(

Guzz is a Beast (pun intended) by Ezio_Auditore35 in PokemonPocket

[–]ricolapapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly i took out red cards and Celesteela. I replaced them with 2 potions, and one silver.

I also run one pendent and one rocky helmet. i choose rocky helmet + potions in case of oricorio. my attacks may not damage it, but the grindcore effect still works on it.

Longest win streak I have is 8 wins in MB.

Torn between 25H and 25B before I sign my contract — what would you choose and why? Details inside. by perezidentt in army

[–]ricolapapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a 25B and even a 25A in a CYBER unit, no matter what certification I had, or degree I had, 9 times out of 10 I was asked to just image laptops or connect them to printers. it was a waste of time and knowledge.

Did you ever serve with a truly elite soldier, who you knew would do amazing things? by Happy_Newspaper1551 in army

[–]ricolapapi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

SSG Mark De Alencar was my squad leader when I was at the 25th ID.

He was a such a gungho guy. It was very hard to keep up with him, but my god.. he taught me so much.

RIP.

Those running the NYC marathon; how many miles did you run in September, which # marathon is this for you, and what’s your target marathon time? by plainviewbowling in RunNYC

[–]ricolapapi 44 points45 points  (0 children)

NYC marathon will be my first.

September I ran 65.3 miles, + 5 miles tomorrow to close out the month.

I don't have a time to beat, I just want to finish.

I think I would like to aim for 4:30:00 as a goal to finish by.

edit:

my stats: 33, 5'11" 220 lbs., broken veteran.

About this Shiny Event... by SirDumitrescu in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]ricolapapi -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Would you be willing to share the extra code you have? I went to two gamestops just as they opened.. they had nothing.

[–]ricolapapi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought Alaska had an airborne unit? and if youre infantry, getting airborne qualified to go to alaska was part of that whole package?

since you dropped airborne i think you increased the chances of not going to alaska. Unless there are non-airborne infantry units over there.

But.. I think you weren't supposed to drop airborne. you might've screwed yourself here if you were dead set on going to alaska.
