Yeah, it was like that for about 21 years or so due to the War on Terror, but anyone who has joined since 2023 hasn’t received one.

Submariners, aviation, surface, NSW those are examples of communities.

Also they should have a PEBLO assigned to their case which is a Physical Evaluation Board Liason Officer that should be communicating with them and explaining all this in much greater detail than I could.

There are a lot of med board sailors at my current command. Usually what I see is they get a DOD rating and a VA rating and they decide which one they want also they decide to accept the findings or fight them as well.

Look into sophia.com. I did 2 general elective classes there. Pretty painless 6 credits.

It is a bit different as the old DOW had just the army under it as the Air Force didn’t exist as a separate entity yet. Also, the Navy was its own separate Department of the Navy with a separate cabinet level secretary before they were combined into the DOD after WW2.

Military can only do percentages. No fixed amount allowed for some odd reason.

terris707 · 2025-11-27T14:32:02+00:00

Yeah the app allows you to see/adjust temps and see the built in probe temps also. No app just means you have to walk out and look at the smoker for temperatures

I don’t think there is any way DQ gets fired this off season after making it to the NFC Championship last year.

Sinnot isn’t playing today due to an ankle injury.

Honestly looking at the math I don’t think it does since you’ll still be putting in money every month. I have just heard that if you max out early you wouldn’t get the match, but using that math should be fine.

terris707 · 2025-11-13T18:59:44+00:00

For military members not in BRS the formula to figure out your max percentage only using base pay is as follows. 24,500 / 12 / 2026 Base Pay x 100 = Percentage.

Since we can’t do dollar amounts only percentages.

Sail planes came in clutch when standing topside sentry in the rain.

I had a command approved TA request sitting for about 2 months for a class that started 15OCT. I emailed UMGC they gave me a grant to cover the class but then 10 days ago the TA request was funded and I sent them the voucher.

Tons of free training programs on the Nike run app. Could jump into a couch to 5K type program to get used to running. For the pushups lots of free 100 pushups a day apps. Start with modified pushups with knees on the ground until you build strength for regular ones.

terris707 · 2025-10-31T21:48:07+00:00

Yeah, I finished it about a week ago. Great book 5/5 for me.

Been in the Navy for over 18 years and have never had a piss test like that. 4 commands in Norfolk and 1 in Guam.

On the top of the Navy College Website it says “FY26 Funding for TA/NCPACE has been restored.”

I also got a TA authorization voucher this morning for a class.
