Poast new message in this thread
Date: July 7th, 2026 1:45 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy I'm a part-time JAG. Been doing it for over a decade. Hoping to make it to retirement.
Health insurance benefits and pension are what keep me going.

Date: July 7th, 2026 2:15 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy over 10 years.
Typical day involves going to 1st Formation and listening to 1st SG push out whatever the tasks of the day are. Most of them don't apply to me because I'm JAG, but I stand in the back of the formation and listen quietly until dismissed.
Next I knock on the Brigade Commander's door to see if there is anything he needs me to handle. This is usually where I give him an update on any pending investigations and when they'll be completed. By investigations, I'm referring specific to any sexual harrassment/assault investigations. Commanders don't give a shit about lost property.
After that, I go to my office and hide so that I don't get tasked to do any dumbass activities by Command Sergeant Major or asked dumb legal questions.
Rinse, wash, repeat until its time for lunch. Come back, and go back to writing legal reviews and answer calls from subordinate Company Commanders, too |

Date: July 7th, 2026 3:11 PM Author: beta razzmatazz gunner set How much does rank matter? Would a 45 year old 1LT who just joined be treated like a FNG by the field grade lifers?
Is life as enlisted SPS - I have a friend of mine who was Tech JobPWNED and is thinking of enlisting as a E4 after talking to a recruiter |
|
Date: July 7th, 2026 4:21 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy The other FG's would be confused as to how a 45yr was able to become an Officer.
The Army has age cut-offs for when you can jump from Enlisted to Officer or Direct Commission as a JAG/Doctor/Chaplain.
Yes, I feel sorry for the Enlisted because they are treated AND PAID like shit. Being enlisted is not for the "Thinking Man" because you are encouraged to NOT think, just simply do and wait for further instructions.
IF you were to join as an Enlisted, it would have been better if you joined in your 20's, got that free college tuition and either went Warrant Officer or got the fuck out. |

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:23 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy You mean the ones that actually know where to find Israel on a map?
You have a lot of GWOT Vets who realize that their "sacrifice" to the country was bullshit in Afghan & Iraq. So they don't see Iran as some chance to regain glory. They think it is a waste of time and lives.
But they'll go if they're ordered to because they don't have a choice. But I don't hear anybody pumped and excited about actually putting boots on the ground on the "Road to Tehran" |

I show up for my Drill, Annual AT, and any random school or professional development they tell me to go to and that's it.
However, you are on call every fucking day of the month via e-mail and random text messages from various commanders within your unit. UNPAID by the way. |

How do promotions work in the reserve
Would a lawyer with 20 years of experience joining at the age limit of 42 still start as an O-2? Would he be treated the same?
What if said lawyer enlisted instead as an E-4 - would NCOs be making him do pushups and smoke him |
|
Date: July 8th, 2026 8:41 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy 42yr Direct Commission: You'd come in as a 1st Lieutenant. You'd be old as shit, but as long as you can pass the PT test and do all the other physical shit, then you'll be treated as any other 1LT.
Lawyer, but you enlist as an E4: Yes, NCO's could fuck with you anyway they saw fit. I would NOT recommend this, because not only are you OLDER than your superiors, but you're also 10x more educated than your average NCO who got their degree at Walden University Online.
You will hate your life and the bullshit pay you'll make as an E-4. However, the Tricare will be nice tho. |

Date: July 8th, 2026 8:44 PM Author: beta razzmatazz gunner set How do 1LTs get treated? Aren't you going to be bossed around by 26 year old CPTs?
DESCRIBE how much you'd hate life as an E4
Apparently Ralph Nader was a cook in the Army after HLS
https://www.redhotpawn.com/forum/general/ralph-nader-in-the-army.104569
After graduating from Princeton magna cum laude, Nader then went on to Harvard Law School, and after graduating he wanted to get any potential for military draft out of the way, so he enlisted in the Army Reserve and went through basic training, then became a COOK and spent 6 months active duty before going on inactive reserve status.

Date: July 8th, 2026 8:50 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy Nobody respects 1LT's except 2LT's. You could be the smartest lawyer, but everyone will look at your rank first and think that you don't know shit about shit because most 1LT's are recent college grads.
You don't start getting any real respect until you become a Captain. That's the rank where you are given "real" shit to do and will be get yelled at when you fuck up, even though you've never done it before.
Ralph Nader's route would not work nowadays. If you sign up as a Cook, you're getting deployed with your unit for a rotation in Kuwait where you might get BTFO by an Iranian drone. |

Date: July 8th, 2026 8:53 PM Author: stubborn anal shrine french chef So you're in the reserves? How many hours do you work per week? I thought it was zero, beyond your "one weekend a month, two weeks a year." (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5880462&forum_id=2)#49987278) |

Or do they fit the stereotype: pension grifters, dumb as rocks, using the military to play out Napoleonic fantasies |

Date: July 8th, 2026 9:10 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy Within the JAG Corps, you mostly see the overachievers staying in for the full 20.
You have a civilian career, a family, and then you add in the responsibilities of being the chief legal advisor to a Brigade (or higher) Commander. |

Why do these guys serve? |

Date: July 8th, 2026 9:15 PM Author: translucent ungodly piazza really tough guy The Lifers may not be the sharpest crayons in the box, but they are smart enough to realize the SWEET BENNIES they get from the Gov't.
- Free Housing; - Free Health Insurance; - Free Vision/Dental; - "Dependent Pay" every month just for being married or having a kid; - Free College tuition that they can pass on to their kids; - Every fucking holiday off
If you had 10+ years in the military you'd have to be a mouth-breathing retard to give them up just so you can go serve GlobalCap for a slightly higher salary. |
