I would recommend contacting the Veterans resource center, ask for Military Admissions. They will be your best bet at figuring this out.

Never was good with shapes and letters on the keyboard. You'll have my resignation on your desk by EOD.

Hey bud, I'm in the corp, I'm also class of 27' and I did my brass this November. Due to my last job, I'm not a fish. And to be perfectly fair with you, when I was 18 I would've never joined the corp. Speaking from a small position of experience, the events and problems you described exist very much so everywhere else. A large majority of real life in the world away from your home town, high school, and one day college will consist of dealing with suboptimal conditions, suboptimal coworkers, and leaders who you swear are criminally incompetent.

As time goes on you will begin to realize that if a problem exists that can be solved by a teenager or a twenty something, it probably has been already. I don't mean to try and convince you not to punch. But know that the interpersonal skills that you develop these four years will be used everyday for the rest of your professional life. One of the reasons the corp is still looked favourably by civilian institutions is because of the variety of challenges anyone in the corp might face.

Moving forward, I recommend you stay motivated and pursue membership in student orgs related to your field of study or future career. Teamwork and complex problem solving is two of the most important skills for a leader to develop.

T's and G's

Any students, current or former, from TSTC here?

After a nine month long process to finally get everything cleared with the FAA I have finally received my first class medical certificate. Now I'm trying to finalize a plan to go forward with actual training. As it stands right now my main goal is to fly professionally and a very close second is to do so with minimal debt. Luckily my uncle Sam should help pay for things but I am not entirely sure to what extent.

If there's anyone who's going through the pilot program at TSTC who would be willing to share their experience, it would be greatly appreciated. Even better would be if there's anyone here who's doing it via the GI Bill and is willing to explain how the process has worked for you.

Fun fact: homie is probably talking about Operation Tomodachi (literally "Operation Friend(s)") that was run largely by the Navy after the 2011 earth quake and is probably wishing to express gratitude

Imma be real. What you're looking for doesn't really exist anymore, I'd personally just knuckle down and get the CCC membership, it's a really well run range with lots space and distance. There's a reason nine hole goes out there.

It's funny to think how far we've taken the B-29 airframe.

I myself have looked around to try and find one. The most I've seen is Dehner boot company, they make 670 compliant tanker boots as well civilian leather ones but they are made to order and run about $450. Outside of this I've also seen an English leather company that makes nice leather tanker boots but that will also run close to €950.

I know this might be a bit late but I just finished a two day hike in the area. The furthest I went was Pecos Baldy. The weather was more than fine in the day and I had to throw on some thermals before bed. In one spot along my route, the trail was covered by so much snow along a particularly steep section of gravel that I had to scramble along the mountainside underneath the snow, I'm not sure if i would have made it going the other way. I'd say send it but get a hard copy map of the area from either the USFS office in Pecos or alltrails.

I've been having vopals spawn the same rate as always on my runs, you may be unlucky, or in such a high traffic area that your hotspot has become a little barren, or a combination of the 2. I would personally just go find a different system entirely to go mine in before I would cry "mining nerf" and cuase a useless panic.

Thanks for the advice once I finish the run I'm on at the moment I'll refit my ship for painite and give it a go!

I get what you are saying. I dont mean to say that cls itself will get me far or that it's some high speed training. But it's a foot in the door and still counts as experience that's is no doubt transferable which is something that combat arms doesn't get a lot of. More so its important to list all resume points that can help with employment regardless of how menial it may be.

I'd personally love a back country job. I have personal preference for carson meadows. I'm combat lifesaver certified so I feel I'd be able to do search and rescue/wilderness medicine.
