    New1LT replied to just_cause's topic in Government, Military

    You're funny!!! With your sleeping bag liner/poncho liner either get a cot in the corner or make sure you're next to a good battle buddy so that you can share the space. There should be strings on...

    Just found out that my hold up is, once again, my 368. I just spoke to the civilian that was taking care of my 368 who said it was signed and completed. Uhmmm, apparently not. So now I have only 60...

    New1LT replied to just_cause's topic in Government, Military

    I'll try to get the name of the MAJ I spoke to at BOLC, but no, we do not have to do the NTP according to her. I spoke to her out at Camp Bullis one night about my packet and what I should expect if I...

    Oh my gosh Trauma...that is ridiculous...Why did you get canceled? Did your recruiter have a good reason? Don't worry about the 11/2 date. All that meant is that USAREC wanted the packets up to the...

    New1LT replied to traumaRN1908's topic in Government, Military

    New1LT replied to traumaRN1908's topic in Government, Military

    I'm over the drama too. This is our lives in their hands and it sounds like some of the recruiters have an "oh well" attitude. Mine has been awesome and has bent over backwards for me not only last...

    New1LT replied to puggerrn's topic in Government, Military

    You can get into the Reserves with an ADN, for now that is, but there's talk about that changing as well. As for the age, I think Medical Officers have until they're 47, but I'm not sure if that...
