    ncox1 replied to Cutandstitch's topic in Government, Military

  15. Pt for enlisted = met, what difference for officer?

    ncox1 replied to heydelilah's topic in Government, Military

    In enlisted Army basic you take an "unofficial" PT test in the begining. Army does the same thing, you end up taking the "official" at the end. Sometimes we will throw around the term "diagnostic PT...

    ncox1 replied to ncox1's topic in Government, Military

    In enlisted basic we rarely sat in a class room, more like march out to a field, got some instruction, then execute. Are you saying that a lot of the time is spent in the classroom? Do you rotate...

  24. Current Nursing Student Considering The Military

    ncox1 replied to RayJordan's topic in Government, Military

    If your in school for your BSN then don't even worry about the LPN thing. In the Army you would be a 68WM6 (LPN) and kind of stuck there. To cross over is a lot of paperwork and waiting. Not worth...
