Well that depends on what hemisphere you're in.

It's supposed to be up, right?

You have a certain amount of time on station before you need to file a family care plan (if one is required.) I want to say it's 60 days, but don't quote me on that. That time is meant to help set up those contacts.

Not sure what else you're looking or as far as advice. Whether you should stay in or not? You say it's been rough overall, you mean your time in the Air Force has? Or this PCS to Nellis?

It's hard to give advice if we don't know the specifics of what you're asking.

Factoid - The test you take for WAPS testing is not called the PDG. It's still called PFE - Professional Fitness Exam. We used to get a study book called the PFE Study Guide and people shortened the name of the book to PFE and the name of the book and the test were used interchangeably.

So when the name of the study guide changed to the Professional Development Guide, or PDG, people started calling the test, The PDG - since we used the books and the test name interchangeably before, it sounded right to continue doing it. But it's not.

tl;dr, the test never changed names, just the study guide did.

Also, how does one wash out of one's old AFSC?

When I went to basic 9 years ago, a reservist in my flight went split option and he showed up at tech school about 3 months after I was already there.

So, unless things have changed, there's a split option.

I don't live in Seattle. I'll be moving there soon - that's why I subscribed to this subreddit.

I thought there was just some Seattle-centric joke that goes along with this.

It's hard to explain. Just being overseas is a new experience. Little things like how door knobs look on people's houses will be interesting to you. How the windows have these shades that completely block out all the light in a house - it's new and weird.

Getting to live overseas is a great experience. Take advantage of it.

No sense in planning a must see/do list now. There will be plenty of time when you get there to see a lot. Look into the USO tours - you'll see the little pamphlets everywhere. If you don't want to go on a tour, just use the trips as inspiration and go on your own.

Oktoberfest is an obvious one.

Man, I miss it. I want to go back.

This doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about it to contradict it.

Explain why he doesn't want the Post 9/11. Post 9/11 is the one that gives you E-5 with-dependent rate BAH when you go to school.

Why would he want regular MGIB if he's looking for BAH when he's in school?

Not to be a douche, but I just learned this myself so I thought I'd pass it along. Just a good-to-know type thing...

Hear, hear. As in hear what this person has to say.

Is this a joke? Even if it's not, it's still funny.

What big gains, exactly, did the the US and USSR receive from Germany? How far advanced were they? What kinds of things did the Germans know that we didn't?

My take was that's what it looks like in the locker room. Not that the male:female ratio is fucked because so many guys are in the gym.

Thanks for taking the time to explain (now I feel like an a-hole).

I was just making a joke. He said, don't downvote based on the complexity of the answer. You upvoted him. I questioned your upvote, stating that his answer was too complex.

I'll just grab my coat and head out now.
