sure, there is a chance... If you have civilian ed experience, and if you are brought on board with M5 designator.

If you have already signed, it may be too late to bargain for your duty assignment. The career assignment manager will be in touch to let you know duty assignment, but probably 1 month before OBC. Tell them you want to volunteer for next deployment r...

Do you owe the military time? Make duty assignment part of your contract, and stand firm. These ANC's I know, same rn school, wanted same duty station, werent going to be given it. Stood there ground an said we arent coming in then. They gave them th...

BTW - If you want to go to Germany, that can be arranged through your recruiter, and dont accept anything less. Go with Modern Arabic, differing dialects everywhere, but it covers most bases.

CPT M and all, I am honored to walk in your footsteps, and you would be proud of the good work we are doing here. I deployed from Ft. Bragg, so I know some of your colleagues. I have a video on my myspace acct that has pics from your deployment. Anyw...

sorry, got impatient before, and hit post reply too much....

Hello from Baghdad, My name is Jason, and I am currently working in the EMT (ER) of Ibn Sina Hospital, Baghdad, Iraq. I am currently deployed with the 28th Combat Support Hospital. As well as working in the EMT Section of the hospital here, I am also...

I work in emergency department, rotating 3 month nights/ 3 months days (12 hours) 3 days one week, 4 next week army nurses are considered "mission essential personel," so there is call schedule in case someone calls out, or if there is a mass casualt...

Hope everythings going well for you... You wont have a problem. Ive seen you as a soldier, and if you are as squared away as a nurse, you'll be runnin circles around 'em. I'm currently inprocessing to Ft. Bragg, and will start inprocessing to Womack ...

I dont have any advice on female boot preferences or AF COT, but if you dont get the replies your looking for, check Military.com. It has forums for all the branches, the army discussion forum even has topic area regarding uniforms. good luck JG

Looking forward to the new challenge Hope you are all well Happy New Year Jason

Angela- deployments- could be as much as 18 months risks - death benefits - taking care of men and women who protect our freedoms and those of other countries. Taking part in history, not watching it unfold on TV. Pay - http://www.dfas.mil/money/milp...

BTW,Merry Christmas.

I stand corrected... Mike (MWbeah) has just confirmed what your recruiter has told you about OBC. See you there... JG

Can anyone offer information regarding Army OBC at Fort Sam Houston? I have already visited the OBC homepage, and wanted to hear about personal experiences. I did not ask the recruiters because they have not attended OBC, and are not nurses. What ca...

Sorry, took so long for reply HM5 - Emergency Nurse I think you are correct about the 66H designator. I saw that you were in Hawaii in the 80's with the army and your avatar is a surf nurse. I made my first visit to the north shore last year, and cau...

Military Girl- First of all, congratulations on the BSN. I'll see you in January. I think this is going to be a great experience. However, as far as big party goes, I will (in this instance) take the "wait and see" approach. If the oppurtunity presen...

You guys have been a great help. I found out the hold up was with my school loans. I have consolidated several school loans a few years ago, and the army requested paperwork from the banks that initially granted the loans. The admin assistant at he...

I was commissioned on August 13, 2004 a 1st LT, and I am told by my recruiter that I am scheduled to attend the OBC January 17, 2005. I have not received written orders confirming this. The reason I would like them is I would like to resign my posit...

you will be saving someone's life

Thanks Neil, just what I needed. Some of my other question have been answered within the last week, (obc website updated). Again, I appreciate the info, and thanks for your service. jg

great posts- the age for the army is 46.5 years old prior to the officer's basic course (OBC) and will take older with specialty experience. Now, who's in? JG

If you have reservations, then do not join.
