GraphiteBlur Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I thought yeungling was an east of the mississippi thing. Well, i have never been able to find it out west. It is delicious. That or a vodka and oj are drinks of choice. You're right. When Lindsey visited DC, she met up with d10 and I, and had Yuengling for the first time. I guess she liked it enough I haven't been west of the mississippi (and buying beer) frequently enough to speak towards it's rarity, but it's common in VA.

Rob1237051 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Yuengling is OK if I have to buy beer at Walmart or something as they don't have actual beer. I get funny looks buying microbrewery and imports at the Dothan, AL Winn Dixie, though. Sorry, America, I've been to Germany and can no longer tolerate your urine flavored water.

JCKILLSALL Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I am still trying to make the July 2013 Board but I have to wait until I take the SIFT on 7 June. The recruiter told me even though the deadline was May 17th that sometimes they can request the package be submitted late. Not sure if that will work but its worth a shot. If anyone out there who has taken the SIFT recently and can help me out specifically with the Math portion I would be GRATEFUL!!! I was never good at Math and this is a big concern of mine. If anyone can give me specific gouge on what type of Math questions are on the test it would really help me out. I have already been studying the Military Flight apptitude book and working on Arithmetic reasoning and the math knoweledge sections. However, if I could get a bet idea on what to specifically focus on that would be so much better! Good luck to the other WO applicants especially the 153As Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a dedicated topic for SIFT. Also, there is a FAQ for the SIFT on the USAREC website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robo Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thank you all for coming here today. Lindsey was a good person, she lived a good life. But more important, she had a great imaginary life on this forum since 2010, with all the great imaginary friends that we all have here... *Pause* But she is not gone, for she forever will be remembered in the archives of the internet as a beacon of knowledge that has guided oh so many lost souls through the labirint of the WOFT packet...I3uller not so much.

It would suck to be rejected for the board for such a stupid thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
