Thanks, I have until the 16th till I stop going out we are trainning up the 3rd ID to take over were we are at.
Good to hear you are going home soon. Keep your head down till you get back!
that is what I am trying to do now, but their is guys that has been in for 12 years and still spec 4's cause their is no slots for them in their mos. But I am changing so I can start making rank so that wont be a problem, most likely going to be infantry.
It's just the way things are. I dunno how the National Guard is (I'm in the reserves which I think may be better.) Work as hard as you can to move up and then you wont have to worry about stuff as much.
No not really, then you of course have the E-6 that walks around and makes everybody do the work, and the people he doesnt like gets put on the shit details. But it's all gravy cause I have 2 months left with this battalion lol.
Damn. Sounds like he didnt take the "no one is more professional than I" part of the NCO creed very serisouly.
and tell him how to do his job. Shit the first week we was here in country doing right seat left seat the tc doing his right seat ride cought him sleeping its rediculous
I have a e-5 in my company that no one wants 2 be on their team, cause the original team he was on which was my old team before I went psd he was my tc and I had to wake him up he was always late get everything ready make decisions like an nco, .
Plus I hate being a parts changer lol that wasnt what I expected at all as long as you know how to read a tm manual you can work on the trucks. And you are right, alot of the nco's in the guard here tho does not deserve the rank what so ever cause they dont do it and they use it to their advantage alot of the time.
Yea I am a spec 4 fright now myself, I got screwed over on turning my packet in this year for the promotion list. So I will put one in next year, but I am going to start college when I get back from here and try and get me a degree maybe try ocs later down the road after sf. Cause in my mos the state is full nobody can get promoted in cause their is no slots at all in the state.
