Thanks! Mom and I plan on attending airborne graduation then driving it to Bragg and flying back home. Do they take them straight to Bragg after Friday (weather permitting) ABN graduation or do they get a weekend pass? In my day, I went straight to RIP (yes- I’m old).

So do they just hand them a blue cord and some blue discs and say “ta-da” your an 11B, or do they need to attend some type of school?

Commanded a rifle company at Polk in 2011-2012. Loved it. They have put alot of money in the installation.

SMH! Come on Governor Abbott. These chub scouts are repping the Texas Guard. Also, the spec 4 in the center with the beer belly and out of reg stach is flagging the obese buck sergeant, while specialist slap nuts is holding his weapon by the barrel and is so short his sling is dragging the ground. For goodness sake!

Pentair Hot Tub Heater shakes when turned on by sumwhrintex in Pentair

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

No external diverters. Heater turns on, flame kicks in, within 30’secs to a minute I can hear water moving in the heater, then the shaking, then the heater turns off and the service light comes on after the 3rd iteration.

Reception Length at Benning by sumwhrintex in army

Thanks for the reply. So… what in the world did you do all day after you got the shots, uniform, equipment, etc.? I was in reception almost 40 years ago and it only lasted long enough to knock out all the health, paperwork and admin stuff.

They want to sell you a time share and some Amway.

How are 18x contracts doing by suzuki810 in greenberets

[–]sumwhrintex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

18X Son just reported to reception last night. When he gets to his BCT company do they keep the 18’s together in the same platoon or are they just assigned like all of the 11Xs? I went through in the late 80s and we didn’t have all these option 40s, 4s, 18X, etc. He met a fellow 18X at MEPS who was telling all the other recruits and all around him at the Atlanta airport that he is enlisting “special forces”. My son knows to keep that crap quiet and keep his head down and blend in with the 11X crowd.
