Most services try and have newer members in a unit training 9 to 12months before boots hit the box.

Not uncommon to get out of Corps in the Infantry as an E-3. Lots of guys never see E-4 in the Infantry in their 4 year contract.

Looks like the boot camp issue shoes. They were crap after a couple years and coats of black sole paint.

I had a pair boots like that and the soles disintegrated, also there were a few times during the summer, standing in formation for long periods and the sun would melt the black polish on our boots, just miserable.

I was quoted for APR 2.625%, for a 30 year Refinance VA IRRRL, and I have 800+ credit

closing cost ~ $3k to &3.5k

screen shot of the contact that I’m working with, very knowledgeable.

Stay on top of this, as the economy improves the interest rates tic upwards, if you have VA loan, look into VA IRRRI refinancing, I looked into a dozen or so lenders and Paramount Bank had the best rate based on cost of refinancing.

I can't think of any gubment or military besides ours that named future bases and put up future monuments so we can reflect on the losing side of a war unless it was part of an armistice deal made prior to the losing side giving up or calling it quits.

To some that may sound anti patriotic to not want to support the losing side of a revolution. I think supporting the winning side is patriotic. I'm also a Yankee so ... lol

Put it this way - when I see some jackass wearing a Guevara t shirt in Philly - the last thing I think of is his patriotism for his country. I only think about how he is being anti-patriotic and is grasping at past ideas or "back int he day when things were better" that were put to rest a long lone time ago.

Just finished the paperwork with this guy. 2.65% Rates went up he said.

Just got locked in with him, did it over the phone. Got 2.5% for 30. He rates took a dive today.. so.. score! I could get 2.625 or for $700 I could get 2.50. I paid the $700 for 2.5%. Also wanted to give me like $2800 back if I took 2.75%.. no thanks.

She laughed.. today is her birthday actually so went there for some cake. Its obviously a parody site, still damn funny. She was in the Navy AD and then got out and flew C-130's in the AF Guard for a brief period. Her husband was in the Marines and then went into the Army as a warrant office and flew Chinooks. Between the two of them they have been in 4 service departments.

it's a start I guess.

Maybe I can say this maybe not, but having never served I would like to see anyone serving that left the services with honor or via disability get free admission.

and how about lifetime free membership for gold star children and spouses?

even crazier - how about our public lands are accessible for free to the public - now theirs a crazy thought. Cut some of the funny money out of politics and kick it back to the people

Well, in the daily updates, retirees on Tricare Select, will have to start paying yearly enrollment fees(starting November) for health insurance, that is going to suck, cause I know soon they get their foot into the door, the fees were gonna pay are just gonna increase over time, damn foocukers.
