r/Military

My sister-in-law’s boyfriend was recently deployed, it was kind of sudden so they didn’t have a lot of time to plan things before he left and she’s really missing his voice and I was wondering if there’s any way that he could maybe leave her a voicemail when he calls her that she could save and put inside of one of those little voice boxes in a build a bear

Are voicemails allowed I know this sounds ignorant as crap but the last time I dealt with anyone on deployment, I was like four

I figured I’d ask somewhere here first that way I had an idea before I brought it to her so that her heart doesn’t get crushed if it’s not something that she can do

Hi guys!

When I joined in 2012, one of my benefits was the G.I bill. I specifically member getting two separate $300 kickers on top of the semester amount.

I did my 8 years and exited but am looking into going back to school. I applied (?) For the 9/11 and was denied due to not enough time spent on active duty. (Yes, I was reserve this is me hilariously acknowledging at all the weekend warrior and not a real part of the military jokes)

If I was contracted to have this benefit, how do I access it? Any help is much appreciated!

18m. Almost done with community college, and started considering joining the military. I was thinking of joining the army b/c you get to choose your mos, but apparently doesn't have good barracks compared to the airforce, which a lot of people on r/ army said to join instead. All in all, i'm not exactly sure whether or not it's worth sacrificing quality of life for the career you want, so getting some extra info on the branches could help me figure it out.

Lets hear your thoughts on this? Its unfortunate but im sire we have all worked with someone during our military service that just dont know how to their job because they get complacent.

The US (via Eldridge Colby) announced today that it was pausing (its participation) on the CAN-USA Permanent Joint Board on Defence (PJBD).

To my knowledge, it’s the first time since the Board’s creation in 1940 that one of the country pauses its participation.

The early mornings, the constantly getting yelled at or the lack communication that you had with the outside world or the physical fitness, whatever it is we want to know about it.Let us know in the comments.
