[Best App Ever]

My only bone to pick is that the CIVCAS restrictions make Afghanistan ROE look like WWII carpet bombing. Really, I've fragged 400+ zombies in about 5 minutes, including whatever those huge f*ckers are, saving the perhaps millions hiding out in the bunker and they tell me, "If you kill one more civilian we're gonna pull you out!" Three civilians is the max acceptable CIVCAS no matter how many enemy are killed? With all due respect, STFU and tell those damn civilians to stop running right into festering zombie hoards! Everyone put your head down and let a man get some work done up here...

Needless to say I love this game; best $1.99 I've spent in a while.

[Astigmatism ?s]

My apologies for resurrecting an old(er) thread, but I figured it better to search and drudge up an old thread than to create a new one.

If anyone can give me an analysis of my latest (5 August 2010... My 6-month post-WFG PRK checkup) prescription, I'd appreciate it. I've tried to apply goducks methodology for calculating myopia and astigmatism, but I wanted to post to make sure I'm doing it right.

Am I still in good shape for a RS Waiver?

[Guard/Reserve timeline to UPT]

I was already enlisted in the unit. I had completed a commissioning physical at MEPs in May, for a different unit. I was hired in late June, and my hiring approval came back from the National Guard Bureau October 7th (with no dates, just the approval for commissioning)

Of course knowing that every unit is different and that the NGB moves at a dynamic pace, would you say it was 3-4 months before you were actually proof-positive that you were going to ANGOTS & UPT?

[Guard/Reserve timeline to UPT]

Dates dropped this past week (prior enlisted):

Hired - June 2010

Brooks - July 2010 (waiver recommended)

Waiver Received - October 2010

AMS - Jan 2011

CST/Parachute - March 2011

Water Survival - April 2011

IFS - May 2011

ENJJPT - July 2011

Gonna be a busy 2011....

How long did it take for you to be officially hired? I only ask because I was told that I would have to undergo a commissioning physical at my unit (Andrews AFB) and other batteries of paperwork before I would be officially sworn in. Is this similar to what you went through?

My "dates" so far:

Selected for FY'12 UPT slot - 28 September

Released from IRR (Inactive Ready Reserve) - 08 October

ANGOTS - ??

IFS - ??

UPT - ??

[Headset questions]

Slight thread revival....

Anyone else out there own a particular mil-to-civ headset adapter? I'm going to do some civilian flying and don't want to fork over the money for a civ headset when I've got several extra mil ones.

Thanks!

I JUST converted my DC 10-76 to GA specs using this kit: My link

Scroll down to the bottom of the page to "Military Headset Conversion Kits". IIRC, this site has a bunch of mil->GA kits; just look around and find your specific headset.

Cheers,

Will

[Info on Disenrollment from ROTC]

As someone who just finished his 2-year involuntary enlistment, trust me when I say it's very possible...

Edit - OP, If you have specific questions, PM me. I had a feeling making my AFROTC experience public was not the best idea, as the post was worded poorly and easily misinterpreted. jcollins, nothing against your post, but I feel more comfortable talking with the OP mano y mano.

Cheers,

Will
