you're gonna retire from the Army. That experience is going to get you an interview and job, more so than if your degree is from AP or Memphis

Well TBH, it does have a little to do with the sports teams as well

 

[YankeeVol]

I really want to go back for a master’s at UTK just so I can say I’m a graduate of the school.

Once I get my Bachelors thats how I'll feel, but I'm ok with at least having a degree from a TN school

 

[YankeeVol]

I somehow made the MSG list

You’ll relish getting to say you rocked a diamond. Maybe not in the near future, but after you sit on retirement, you’ll value having had that opportunity

I have no problem being a 1SG, I just don’t want to be around SITs again. I did my time already haha

I’ve been in a year, granted it’s all been in TRADOC, but I don’t know how you’ve done it for 15 or whatever without going crazy.

Well not being able to love until December helps.

Looks like I may be interviewing soon

December is a good month to love, though.
