I was going to go with the O club or any off-base bar/club

Good Luck Dallas!!!! I wish you the best.

As far as your SSN, I wouldn't bring it unless your recruiter specifically tells you -- just another thing that could get lost.

And you also need to...

Whether or not you can take all 30 days at once if you have it accumulated will depend upon your command. They will also have to be notified if you travel overseas and will again, make the final...

Okay. But have you talked to your command/legal/chaplain yet? They need to know what's going on.

So.....

Status report

Bumped because you deserve an answer

Still to fricking cold to ride...grrrrrrrrr

I worked for Army Corps of Engineers for awhile but that's a little different.

For government jobs, you'll get points added to any test you may take. I know there is a law or whatever --...

All I remember is that horrendous green jello with carrots. WTF is that about?

This issue has been covered and even though I cannot speak for other WMs, I agree with this statement.

Hell ya -- that's where I was, both Pentagon then HQMC. Not in '74, of course, and I really don't think you want to know where I was. But ya, Henderson Hall did have a great chow hall. Quantico...

Your recruiter would be the best to ask.

But if I may make a suggestion: Buy some ASVAB study guides, do a couple practice exams and retake the test to increase the amount of jobs you qualify...

^^^This.

I shouldn't have to tell you to make sure everything is documented preferably with witnesses or some sort of documentary evidence.

Good Luck. Keep your head low, think positive...

It does kind of look like her

Okay. All right -- I'll take that. Still wish we could have done that.

So if they were recruiters and know all, why ask us?

If only I had a crystal ball...

So why do you think the recruiter isn't "giving it to you straight." That's their job. They don't need to lie to recruit you. Have you seen the waiting list lately? They get to pick and choose...

Responding now to a 2-year old post.

Hmmmm....

Oh. So this isn't about cigarettes, huh? My bad.

I saw that. Damn. Too late for us.

If I were you, I'd go MECEP since you'd maintain Sgt rank/income -- basically paid to go to college -- and it is designed for prior enlisted.

As far as the USNA, like you said, no pay and you'd...

Glad we were able to put your mind at ease.

Now bite me.
