Just found out this morning I got approved for my final waiver. I was Marines now i am gonna be a soldier. I have 100 college credits. When i am done with training I think I want to go g2g i am just worried that bring 36 or possibly 37 when i do the packet will be an issue.

I wasn't an officer, but I was Airborne ARTY, both as an FO Recon Sgt and as the RTO on a 105 gun. I was with the 82nd, 8th Abn, and served with 173rd abn in Nam. I also was in a National Guard ARTY unit after the Army. One point I'd like to make about being in a gun section. With ARTY YOU CAN NEVER BE WRONG!! You have to be spot on with each round. There can be no mistakes! Mistakes result in friendly fire casualty incidents. It takes smart people to be in the Artillery.

I was a FA officer many years ago. It was not on my top 3 choices, but it was a pretty great job for a Lieutenant. I got to run around with the infantry and tanks as a company and battalion FSO. Later I moved into a light 101st (105mm) battery as a FDO. I probably liked the FDO job the most. I actually enjoyed the gunnery, lethal math. It was truly amazing having all that firepower under your control as a FDO. Ultimately, the final authority on sending the rounds down range. My Fire Direction Center troops were great and the 13Bs on the guns were awesome. Best of luck to you 1LT Baxter.

I was enlisted (Benning 1984), an NCO and then a commissioned officer. All commissioned officers should be required to be enlisted for a certain number of years first.

[@vicentelopezlopez3109]

You don't lead nothing as a FDO. You just verify the grid point.

Are you an FA officer or a salty fdnco
