@SNAFU_Sara@TheStroBro My absolute favorite was submitting an AAM for one of my dudes and having it kicked back by the BN CDR in an e-mail from him saying " I know he deserves this and more but make it better"...its an AAM sir....
I have been blessed with the opportunity to help a 1SG struggling with alcoholism. He is going to treatment, he has announced it to his company, he is keeping his diamond, and he is keeping his family together.

@SNAFU_Sara What screws me over a lot is the current op tempo. I find my professors are understanding as they can be, but when its several weeks EVERY semester. they can only do so much. it related back to the "soldiers first" hypocrisy
