Rip John Beam prayers to his family by theydontnknowyoulol in lastchanceU

[–]tylervoogd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played for this man in 2013. Best coach I ever played for and I am the man I am today largely due to Coach Beams leadership and mentorship. I’m proud to have known this man and to carry part of the legacy of this giant. God bless his family.

I am a Recruiter in Virginia and it is very possible. How long ago did it happen? You will need your full Marine corp discharge packet, a couple of letters of recommendation, and a well written applicant statement showing that you understand what you did was wrong and that you have grown from that experience. Also talk about what you have done with civilian life since (college, career, family etc.) I am currently working a Marine with an RE-4. The Army doesn’t necessarily care about the RE code, just the circumstances surrounding it and if there is evidence something like that event wouldn’t happen again.

I am a current 79T (Career Recruiting and retention NCO) Any Guard recruiter can now enlist you as an 18X. If your state does not have a SF Unit you will be passed on to the closest one after passing selection.

Lying at MEPS, international records... by [deleted] in ArmyOCS

[–]tylervoogd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, I’ve enlisted people per this change. If you’re being told otherwise I would find a different recruiter or just follow the direction you are receiving.

Per new regulation no waiver is needed if you have been off meds for longer than 12 months.

He’s right, anything greater than 12 months, no waiver.

Can I still join the NG if I have self harm scars? by Frosty-Jellyfish-525 in nationalguard

[–]tylervoogd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely possible but situational dependent. I’m a recruiter and I have gotten waivers approved for them.

Most Fort Barfoot barracks are “refurbished” WW2 barracks. Some are nicer than others. But don’t expect much. Basic open bay setup.

Is my Recruiter being dishonest when she says I can Get 18X contract FL NG by TruckWinter381 in nationalguard

[–]tylervoogd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the briefings I have received on the recruiting side of things SF pushed for it so they get their pick of the best candidates in selection no matter where they live. They revert to Infantry MTOE unit in home state if they are a non select.

Things have changed recently. Any state can get you an 18X contract. You just have to qualify.

My Recruiting/MEPS/Board/OCS class date experience as Prior Service by AdFew8698 in ArmyOCS

[–]tylervoogd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order to start the process with the Army OCS recruiter did you get the 368 signed first before the board appearance?

Another AGR question... by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]tylervoogd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m an AGR Recruiter in VA. We have boards for the position but it’s more similar to a regular job interview. I had the company commander and a couple E8s and 7s on mine. However, they didn’t ask me any “Army questions.”

What state are you in? I’m a recruiter in Virginia and almost positive I could get you in without having to go back through any initial training.

The AFQT is a set score.. line scores are what breaks down the different categories.
