I bet they weren't current for Green Dot. See what happens! Bystanders, all of them!

Need Alaska fishing outfitter
Wide open as far as location/river/part of the state. We don't know enough to narrow it down and the location is secondary to the experience. We'll have to fly airlines in, so that's the only LIMFAC. Let's say drivable from ANC or FAI, or one hop from those hubs on some kind of scheduled service. I mentioned trolling, but my dad isn't interested in that this time. Wants to cast and reel and might bring his fly rod.

Need Alaska fishing outfitter
I'm planning a trip to Alaska in June with my dad and 10 year old son. We'd like to fish freshwater for salmon, trout, etc. We need suggestions on outfitters/guides. Ideally we'll find a lodge close to or even on the river we fish. Fly away day trips are an option, but no tent overnights. Google results are overwhelming and personal experiences are always better than anonymous reviews, so thanks in advance for your sage wisdom!

And it’s all answers to the wrong questions. 90% of these new accessions are still going to bail ASAP for greener pastures.

Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) Q&A
Posters on other forums really really like the G fund for their conservative holding. There’s nothing like it in the retail world so they say keep your TSP for that. I’d like to consolidate accounts but haven’t pulled the trigger for that reason.

I haven’t done that but I’ve had good luck simply calling the appropriate ARTCC ops desk for other stuff. https://atccommunication.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/ARTCCphone.pdf

Brandman University? Masters talk
I can't help you with Brandman, but here's some unsolicited advice from a has-been finding himself in a potentially tough spot. Get a degree employers will recognize and one that will be useful to you if/when you need it. I did like everyone else and wasted my time and money on an ERAU/Touro/Phoenix masters. Now I'm in a position where I would love to show an employer I can do stuff and I don't have a degree worth putting on a resume. I'd love to go back and tell my Capt self to spend a little extra time and get an MBA from a school everyone's heard of. ASU, Nebraska, FSU, Oklahoma State, CSU all have online MBAs. So you can't get a brick and mortar Harvard MBA. At least get something from a school an employer won't have to google (because they won't).

Coming off training orders. No DLA because it's a "separation PCS?"
It's not the last time you'll feel screwed. Just be glad you're RC not AD and dealing with the madness every 3 years.

Coming off training orders. No DLA because it's a "separation PCS?"
Unfortunately I think they're right. JTR is pretty clear on this. Your Guard (or Reserve -- RC, either way) base is almost certainly your PLEAD. Hopefully you can find a loophole, but I think you'll have to settle for your PCS entitlement minus the DLA. https://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/Docs/perdiem/JTR.pdf
