74D eh? Here's some practical advice.
1. When you're initiating Smokepots stand up wind.
2. Get familiar with the Nuclear Simulators.
3. Go MOPP2 because NBC suits are warm in cold winters and summer nights.
4. You can run your heater on High for half the winter OR on Low all winter.
5. Carry extra water so buy a large Camelback.
6. Get familiar with camouflage.
7. Get a MGRS GPS w/carry extra batteries and your own map.
8. Learn how to find water.
9. Keep that vehicle working, hot-rodding breaks things.

Your prob gonna come to 1/11 and take over the cage in hht because there’s nobody to fill the slot currently but you’ll pretty much never be at work aside from quarterly layouts and to sign out promask when there’s a range going on that needs them. All and all you literally won’t do anything and be off by 1300 once your task are done. Maybe help out at the motorpool if absolutely necessary but that’s it so your chillin
