How hard is it to get ? How long does it take to process. Shaving now but it really irritates my skin.

Thank you in advance

Specifically, the department of Veterans affairs.

Which would you recommend ? Any success stories ? I have back aches, nothing serious but looking for something to help alleviate. Thank you in advance !

Just looking for encouragement. I am 35 years old. I work at the VA but joined the reserves in hopes of one day passing the education benefit to my son. I’m overweight but keep a decent level of fitness. I can run the 2 miles in about 21 minutes right now. Some light back pain with abdominal exercises. Much love and respect. Have a great day everyone ! Thank you for all the kindness you have shown so far.

I get light aches in my back with prolonged running or core exercises. Nothing crazy. But would be nice to have something just in case. Are you allowed to bring tiger balm or bio freeze to basic ?

Is my position protected under USERRA to cover my time for basic training and AIT ? Thank you in advance. I appreciate you all for taking the time.

I believe it’s time for 2 minutes. Can you rest in the down position ?

Good afternoon. I would like to ask a few questions. Thank you in advance. In short, my tape test was off by .5 inches I believe. I am supposed to ship in September to ARMS. My recruiter said if I can get within requirements my end of August we can go back to MEPS and get remeasured. He also stated, that if I did go, I would stay only until I measured correctly. If early, I would go to the next available basic.

Good morning. I recently went to the board for an Army AMEDD position. Unfortunately, I did not get selected. I am working with a non medical recruiter for other career options. As I am 35, I will need a waiver if wanting to pursue becoming an officer. We spoke about potentially joining enlisted which would be an easier process. I have a career that I am happy with. I am not so focused on the monthly pay, as I am VA healthcare and education benefit for my child upon completion. I would also like to find a unit close to home. What are your thoughts ? Would you recommend trying for an officer position first or going enlisted ? I appreciate your time. Have a great day !

I am getting blood work done to start a 6 month course of Accutane tomorrow. I have seen wonderful before and after pictures online, but wanted to run it by my Brosaceans. Have a blessed day y’all !
