Re: Promotion Orders
Jim, If you will please refer to my other post and my discussion with Cams on the subject, but I have been told several times about using the "Ranger" honorific and last I was told I was not to use it as I am prior service. If the rule is different than what I was told please let me know b...

Re: Promotion Orders
Don't take this the wrong way, but I believe (and I am not alone by any means in believing this) that the Early Commission Program is a scam. Even my SMI's used to tell my class that the program existed for almost purely anachronistic reasons. The program sucks a full commitment out of a future Offi...

Re: Promotion Orders
Silverback I am assuming you work at Marion sir, I am actually a GMC Alum so you're pretty close. You are right about my situation, sort of. Long story short, I didn't want the end bad enough for it to justify the means. I just got off the phone with your contact as a matter of fact. Talk about my s...

Re: Promotion Orders
PerryB, Yes I resigned my commission. I also left College, because I realized once I completed my degree I would be snatched into the accessions process (only to land back in the National Guard) and by then I would have no way out. If I completed my degree the Guard would have had to pay for OBC, af...

Re: Promotion Orders
UPDATE: PerryB, an old recruiter friend of mine showed me that according to the form NBG 594-1 because I did not complete the ECP process I revert to the rank held prior to my SMP contract (E-3). Will the Active component recognize that fact? Now they are telling me that they need a DA form 785, whi...

Promotion Orders
Finished a 2 hour meeting with the recruiter today, squaring away paperwork for my projection date for MEPS, and came across something neither of us knew anything about. I am going to go ahead and answer some questions before they are asked, I will try to keep it BLUF as possible just bear with me. ...

Roger that Cams
MadBSTRD, I will certainly keep that in mind, I have already had it out with my Crossfit coach once about rushing me, good to know I was on the right track at least.

Re: Crossfit pro/cons
Rangers Baseplate and Cams, no apology necessary It was just the National Guard, and I am coded as a GNPS for enlistment purposes (due to a bunch of admin BS which I have no desire to bore anyone with), I also just now figured out how to update my signature line so if we are playing find the asshole...

Re: Crossfit pro/cons
Ranger Cams, at the time, in order to avoid saying something unprofessional, and to give myself sufficient time to think of the best way to reply to what you said, I decided to hold off on replying to your previous comment, its not out of arrogance, it was more along the lines of if you can't think ...

Re: Crossfit pro/cons
I was addressing Jim previously, I got yelled at for specifying who I was addressing once before on here so I stopped doing it . I don't think it's a waste of time so much as the intensity level is not up to snuff. My Crossfit Coach has two classes, one is a class of beginners (which is much to easy...

Crossfit pro/cons
So I just started training at my local Crossfit gym in preparation for OSUT/RASP. (I am satisfied with my performance on the RPFT so far, the idea was to improve, but do so without sustaining injury prior to training). So I am adding Crossfit to my PT plan. However, we spend a lot of time on Olympic...

Re: Resigning a commission to sever in 75th/SF
Sivlerback, could you please elaborate on this sir? Thank you KCS I think he was saying that if an Officer received a "Officer Career killing Eval" and stood a snowballs chance in the Arizona desert of having a decent career as an Officer...he might resign his commission and go enlisted. ...
