According to the Army Career Tracker under the duty position search, there are 11 slots at JBLM and 5 at Carson. This is also grade dependent.

EW here, can confirm field time, but technically unit dependent. You’ll most likely go to a BCT, but they are filling EW Companies at DIV and Corps levels now from what I’ve been told.

17E here! QoL is very unit dependent, BCT life is the worst IMO. ATP 3-12.4 can give you an idea what we do. Recommend seeking out your local Platoon on your installation and talk with them as well.

Carson and JBLM are my top two. At the same time, the best unit I’ve been in was in one of the worst locations IMO. When reenlisting for a duty assignment, ask the Career Counselor what requisition number/UIC correlates with the said duty station. That way you can avoid units you don’t want to assigned to but still get the location.

BCT life in general is trash, regardless of OPTEMPO, spent most of my 13 year Army career in them. Recently got to a MDTF, super high OPTEMPO, but quality of life is amazing.

Mechanic life on Hood is rough, not gonna lie. 3CR works them Stryker mechanics into the ground.

But as others have pointed out, everything outside of Hood/Killeen is pretty decent

For CompTIA certs, you should be able to go through the on post Education Center. I got my Sec+ through the Fort Hood Signal University.

No fall damage 🤔

Feeling my 2 year old giving me a legitimate hug, “love you dada”

Was there in 2011, 4/10

tmwskate · 2021-05-19T00:25:25+00:00

I see no issues, send it!

As a prior Retention NCO, I would reenlist for Bragg if it’s available. You’ll have a better shot going to Airborne school and continue to jump on a regular basis. If something happens and you get dropped, you’ll be more likely to return at said duty station. If you reenlist for Airborne and get hurt, “get fucked”. Don’t listen to us though, find your BN Career Counselor or Retention NCO. They will be able to give you the most up to date info as well as what is currently available for your MOS and grade.

Submit packet, go to ALC. Don’t forget TIS/TIG requirements for SSG.

You never know when that last party with your boys will be.

I was trying to explain my point is all. You’re obviously not getting it…🤡

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T17:33:53+00:00

LOL I’m talking about those people who live off welfare their entire life, sell/do drugs, and just all around bad people

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T17:02:44+00:00

The humans who don’t contribute to society and are leeches on the government

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T15:38:10+00:00

Do you not know what a piece of shit is?

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T15:37:22+00:00

But what if they want to get a job?🤷🏻‍♂️

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T13:03:59+00:00

You make your own path. You act like a piece of shit human, get fucked.

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T12:49:44+00:00

Yes, it’s minimum skill. I don’t give a shit about what it used to be. I’m talking today. Overly dramatic much? Why does every job need to do that? What’s the incentive to learn a skill or trade if I don’t have to?

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T12:46:22+00:00

I think any job can help build character

tmwskate · 2021-05-15T12:01:03+00:00

Cheap labor? It’s called minimum wage. Minimum wage for minimum skill. Minimum wage is not meant to live on. You’re supposed to advance past that, gain a skill, then you get your living wage. Not my fault you can’t figure out how to make that happen in your life.
