If you worked for me I would not let you live off of post as a Single Ranger Private.
I would make a couple Tabs check on you a couple times a day to make sure you were sleeping in your barracks room.
Can you request which Battalion to go to?

This was SOP way back when. I don't remember if was actually on paper or just an unwritten rule.VIPER--00 wrote:If you worked for me I would not let you live off of post as a Single Ranger Private.

Only if you got married or tabbed could you even think about moving from the barracks. Besides that, you weren't ready to leave the nest yet, far too many temptations out there for young men to ruin themselves on. Sounds kind of silly, but it's done out of concern for you by your leadership to protect you and help you grow and mature as a soldier as opposed to letting you run wild the first time out in the world on your own and step on your dick hard enough to get DX'd or cause public embarrassment to your Battalion with the locals.
Barracks life is a fucking hoot, it should be experienced by all, otherwise you'll miss all the fun growing up.

It was standing rule in Division too. Single lower enlisted equals barracks. When I was made a team leader I got my own room, but stayed in the barracks.
The barracks were awesome though, always something to do.
