Mymm Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) FLHooker, thanks, and trust me looks like im not going to be waiting around for anybody to sign anything signed my contract today, and i ship to Rucker on the 1st of july, I guess us prior service guys who don't need basic, just going right out of the gate. plus meps will not, repeat WILL NOT give me driving orders, i have to wait until after wocs to come all the way back here and move my stuff. That's what I had to do. Army didn't offer to move my stuff and the area I was moving from I actually lost money on my DIY move. On top of that I had to take personal leave to get the days to move, it was great. I guess they have been a little better about helping folks that are just getting here but if you find yourself at the Dothan airport with no cabs there or a clue on where to go at Rucker call me. I depending on the time I can come pick you up and at least show you where you need to be. I was kinda left out to dry and it sucked hauling my crap around trying to figure out WTF.

Linc Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Entry contracts, even prior service, don't usually get provided anything but the airfare to training. It's like you're not vested, yet, for DA to expend money on moving you. After all, you might fail and then all they would have to do is ship you home.

ucsspirit Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 These are valid points, I have got over the initial shock, and no just in a state of preparation. Mymm, thanks for the offer, can you pm me? this is a great support group for the "addiction" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fighter13 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Good luck man. don't be nervous. it's easy to go into the board and 'black out' from being nervous but the bottomline is they need aviators and already have a seat for you...you just need to get it.

1badz32 Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Well, some how the dates have gotten mixed around, my battalion review board is not on 9/14, it's on 9/8. I found this out on 9/3. My recriuter said my USAREC review board is on 9/14.?? According to this web page, that info is incorrect:http://www.usarec.army.mil/hq/warrant/WOge...rdschedule.html Hrm... we'll see what happens i guess.
