if you're married. If you guys are really committed it would be worth it anyways, that BAH you get when you're married is a big pay boost

has your record been officially expunged? a lot of places have purge their records every few years and if a record has been labeled as "expunged" it might not even be in the system. whether or not you decide to put that down is your decision, but be prepared for whatever if questions are asked.
ultimately, don't lie.

The recruiter requested my medical records, but the problem is I have no idea how to get all this information accurately. What's the best way to go about getting all your medical records?

Look up your court records. Call the court and ask. Your name might not even be brought up. I'm sure they will be pretty lenient especially for things that have been expunged. I know people who have enlisted with multiple misdemeanors.

But you're either an E-5 or E-6, or you get BAH, and I guarantee you dont make more than the average officer plus BAH, so dont mislead them

I would put the Pay rate on an officer with BAH and BAS but I'm limited to just my phone right now.
That dude above must be banking $5-$6k a month talking about making more than an officer.

Might finally be able to get a physical at MEPS within the next couple months. Last year i was wait listed until the middle of June because of a separated shoulder injury i got last year. They want me to see an orthopedist again for a follow up and if he gives me the all clear my recruiter will resubmit my application with the ortho's note. Going for the Air Force. Really hope i get in, been wanting to do this for over a year.

Im a Marine now, but Ive been thinking of switching branches when I get out. Is there a long waitlist for the AF, or was it just because of your injury?

Good deal brotha Seeko. You'll ship faster if you pick a mechanical job.

I just got out of the Army (Medically Retired). Best choice I made in my life to join, but damn it feels good to be out and have the GI Bill to start going to school.

This is pretty random but can you bring your own running shoes to basic training? Gonna get fitted for some new running shoes soon so i can start training for the runs and was curious if i can wear shoes i bring or if i have to wear what they assign me. I did a quick google search and i read different things. Some people said they were able to wear what they brought and others mentioned they have to wear the New Balance's that were assigned to them. This is for Air Force basic. Thanks.

I'm interested in joining the Air Force and I was wondering how the housing is on the base? Also how easily would it be to purchase an on-base apartment or home? Any pros and cons on it?

thanks bro. I really have my eye set on an IT or aviation career though. My aim is to get a job doing something that I can see myself enjoying to do list military as well. Air craft mechanics isn't a bad idea though. I may look into it. Thanks.
