the other option once you're in the Guard, is to get an AGR slot and be a full time guard bum. that generally makes a side gig more difficult, but plenty of people make a living at it as an AGR or tech (aviation, and/ or maintenance) with guard drills on the weekends. Aviation AGR/tech life is the b...

heart. stubbornness. all intangibles to me.

if he can math a good solution, he'll get rich with someone for the predictive skills if he can sell it.

some preferential treatment yeah, but in graded positions I though in my PLT at least, we got harder looks and were generally held to a higher standard. that's my perception compared to watching others get some easy or easier goes. I didn't get a gimmie go in any phase. glad you got yours. I'm not d...

C Co, 1-143 was probably the local LRS unit back when. I was in G/143 LRS in Texas '89-92. they have a lineage I'm guessing of being the most professional guard guys in your area. up to active duty standards, and with a lot of depth of experience from active guys who went there later. this is a gene...

I don't know that I do disagree with the Maj. that mirrored my experience more than Centermass' description. maybe it's having been a Batt Boy. I don't know that I saw much nudging in the right direction, so much as an expectation that I/we'd perform to standard or get justly no-go'd for it. maybe I...

Get hard and dig, Jim. And make the nurses giggle.

I read friends and calls aren’t wanted right now, but if we can get a room number for cards, down the road, I’d appreciate it.

Grenada or Dominican Republic, '65 was it?

there's a pretty good number. it'd be easier to link up off a Facebook group though. not sure anyone there does a breakfast though.

I'll pass. failure to deploy of the main was sporty enough.

Old story, but pols plugged into the stories

I was gunna let him figure that one out for himself. Back in the 80-early 90s, ROTC got some Regular Army commissions too. Don't know when/if it changed. I had an RA commission waiting on my graduation. I enlisted instead.

Blues skies and rest easy Uncle Stead. See ya when we get there.

Huh, I wonder when ISIS started doing that?

Too many commissioned officers mistake their importance early in their careers, and don't value their relationships with other leaders. in my opinion. Officers, especially at the Company level are managers. They manage and resource NCOs. NCOs lead. Or, they're supposed to. If they aren't, their seni...
