Thanks to Covid, im now on my way to Bragg instead of 173rd, what is life like around Fayetteville? Is everything back open? Also will I be able to drive my POV while in-processing ?

About 85% of 11 Series guys here are either RASP failures or RFS’d guys, or SFAS failures; so be ready for the “back in *insert school or unit* we did this”.
Brush up on the Division’s MOH recipients and the merits earned during WWII to present day. Get ready to run, ALOT.

Division must have really changed for 85% to be school failures. In my day 10% was believable and roughly 80% actual signed ups for the *2d with no thought to go to a bat or Grp. Division stood on its own as great pace to be assigned unlike shall I say 1AD at Bliss. :)

No joke 1SG its about that high. There was a couple of medics that got dropped because they couldn't get a SOCM seat. People always say they are going back and never do..

Bars aren’t open yet, but yes, you should be able to drive your POV. Most places are back open, but at limited capacity.

Cadet 2LT (Join to see) I’m tracking. I spent seven years in the 82nd. I know all about the stickers. I was a jumpmaster for most of those years.

SGT (Join to see) Ive done over 200 static line jumps and almost 100 HALO jumps. I’ve never had a jump not put on my log. Be proactive and get the Primary jump masters info so that you can always get a copy of manifest. Especially when jumping with other units. It’s going to be tough. Wait until you start jumping with other countries. No one will care for your log like you will. Stay in top of it. The 82nd will stop your pay once you become an official “pay loss.”

Your Company Air should be tracking all the jump logs. However, you should keep a personal copy that you fill out after each jump. That way if anything is ever missing you can cite the date/DZ that you jumped on. (I had a kid try to tell me he jumped 9 times last year, when I know for a fact the unit only had 6 at most, 2 of which were saturdays).
Nobody is going to care about your log/pay as much as you will. However if you have a good Air, it won’t be an issue.
