Mostly I see random useless conversations about military board questions and people getting promoted. I swear when I accepted to join this it said something about expanding my career options or something like that. Seems to me that this is facebook for military.<br>

<p>Expanding career for a SSG. Example: there's about 10 or so discussions alone in the last week on the SFC Board. If you were not selected I am sure there is some valuable information in those threads to expand your career.</p><p>I don't think that is random or useless.</p><p>You will also find many conversations on the #1 priority in the Army and that is SHARP.</p><p>You will also find many discussions on mentorship, professional development, and transitioning advice. All extremely valuable.</p><p>And probably the MOST important, if you were ever not sure in your career you can find out here if a 2LT should salute a 1LT.</p>

This goes beyond what Facebook is doing. If all you are seeing is "useless conversations" then you aren't looking close enough. While I agree, not all of the conversations are as meaningful as others; we have had some great discussions and people have found this site to be really useful to expand their social network.
