Illinois Army National Guard. i want to go active after i complete my degree but I don't know how Doable that if i commission guard first then try to get on active

Awesome!! Which branch of service? atriot:

What blows is both the waggy and cj won't run the cj crapped out to day and between the two of them I maintain my Dd. So I have no idea what is wrong with my two only modes of transit and can't fiddle with them till march.

I know you aren't kidding man

Won't be no time to think of home...much less whats wrong with your ride....



Good luck, and remember- Its all a mind game in the end..

i'd be more sick and tore up thinking about whats going on at home and what i'm missing, than i would thinking about the jeep. i had that problem when i was driving over the road, and i was only gone for 5-6 days at a time.

were not helping are we?

Good luck and thank you for your service.

Don't worry about the rigs, you will be busy with plenty of stuff while in school.

FYI, keep in mind, a butterbar is only as good as his Sergeant Major makes him. Listen to their advice, they can either make you or break you as far as your troops are concerned.

Good Luck on starting your journey to getting your butter bar and ALL I'm going to say is listen to your NCO's and you need to be STRONG in PT because you need to be able to LEAD from the FRONT.

 

[bailss]

Amen to that... I have seen a few good butterbars over the last 24 years and they are the ones that listen to their Platoon sergeants... but I am Infantry biased.

Knowing there is an awful lot to learn in a short time before leadership skills mature, I've found that a bottle of Johnny Walker Black and a request to keep one out of trouble to the senior Chief Master Sergeant is the shortest path for getting the big picture. Don't worry about owning up to what you don't know........ everyone else already knows it anyhow. Humility beats arrogance all hollow for being accepted as part of the team.

And since I was the dumbest kid ever to leave the farm to fly airplanes, I KNOW this works!
