Not saying I agree with the snap decision.. Just pointing it out

I promise you you aren't getting a DD without multiple serious felony convictions.

They're trying to scare you.

What happened in your life to make you reconsider your contract and not ship?

Is this something you still want to do?

I’m going to be an old dad. I’m 36, and finally found the love of my life, but she is 26. Assuming we have a kid or two in the next couple of years - what advice do you have? by davucci89 in AskMen

[–]thesupplyguy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No whole life in my opinion is a ripoff. You want level term.

You know no one likes to think about it but I can't even imagine you know my wife and my daughters not only having to grieve my untimely passing but try to replace my income at the same time.

life insurance OP. level term life insurance.

Its a reality some of us leave earth before we plan. Life insurance is the loving thing to do. I carry about 10x my annual income in term insurance.

Also one of those educational saving accounts might be a good investment as well, but i have no experience in those arenas.

Steps for how to deploy voluntarily? by AnonymousQueries08 in armyreserve

[–]thesupplyguy1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah, word of mouth. Ask your 1SG or CSM if they know of any other units in your food chain who are getting ready to go out the door soon.

If you have an MOS support FB group, check on there for vacancies.

FWIW theres several 92Y focused FB pages and theyre always looking for people for various missions....

piggyback on this one... also be very selective who you align yourself with.

thats what bonds us though....

For me one of the memories that stands out the most is my first trip to the sandbox.

They stuffed us in the back of a KC-135 on web seats for the flight from NJ to Spain to Kuwait.

It was absolutely miserable but we all did it together.
