Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
Hello again. I could have updated this thread sooner, but maybe better late than never, in the case that someone else may find themselves in a similar situation in the future. So just a recap, my plan was to join a Reserve unit, spend my station time there(1 year of which IT time counts), and get a ...

Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
You need to be on active duty to volunteer for the 75th... @Ranger Disinfertention, based on what you know, it wouldn't be possible to volunteer to go on active duty while in AIT? I would HAVE to be released from the reserve component, which couldn't happen until AFTER any initial training and I re...

Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
UPDATE -- email from my recruiter So... waiver was not approved, I will not be able to enlist active duty from MEPS :| My only choice now, seems to be to enlist in The Reserves.

Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
@RangerDisinfertention... I might be messing this up, but the way it was explained to me was that the cutoff age is normally 34. THey are giving me a year and change(~2 years) in AFS time off of my age(38), which means my enlistment age is 36. So this required a 2 year waiver. Again, I may have misu...

Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
UPDATE -- Post MEPS visit. I just got back from MEPS. Good news is that I am physically able to reenlist. Received all GOs so no problems there. Bad news is that the age limit is actually an issue. My recruiting office thought I was good-to-go, including several of the recruiters in the office that ...

Re: Option 40 and the Prior Service Soldier.
I read the PRIOR SERVICE RULES(current as of 2Aug2018) before visiting my recruiter a few weeks ago. But apparently I misread it, and he JUST figured out how to read it yesterday. According to the list, I fall under #7, section b, subsection 1. The MOS' available are as follows: 11B, 12B, 12C, 13J, ...

What is life like for Support MOS soldiers?
Hello Rangers. I've been looking for information about what the daily roles or life might be like for support soldiers as Rangers? I have spent a bit of time searching, but information on this seems to be sparse. I've found THIS reddit post with someone discussing their role as a 25U. HERE is anothe...

Re: Graduate School Paper- Predicting RASP Success
Some obvious observations from a quick read through... 11-Series Graduate at a higher rate than other MOS' It would appear that 11 series guys graduate at a much higher rate than other MOS'. But that seems problematic as there are a lot of MOS' on the table on page 19 that have less than 25 observa...

Re: Introduction - FORRTrES
Ranger Disinfertention, thank you for the warm welcome. It does seem like a weird name for sure, it's actually pretty much my name, just a bit jumbled up! I'm sure my age is good to go for regular reenlistment. According to my recruiter, I actually have a few years to reenlist also. I hope there isn...

Introduction - FORRTrES
Howdy. I was going to post my introduction yesterday, but thought I'd wait until today so I could administer an initial PT test to myself, as I had already done my PT for the day before my registration approval. I was in the National Guard as an Avionics Technician from 99-05. I was part of CO E(-),...
