Introduction

[theycallmeb]

Hello, I'm Bonatos. I'm 25 years old, civilian, non-prior service. My aim is to pursue a rep-63 contract through the National Guard. I am in the self-educating and training phase, reading everything I can find online and in print, and running/rucking/lifting frequently. I am not quite where I need to be physically yet, but I am working hard at it and hope to reach out to the NG SF recruiter in the next few months.

At the moment I make my money as a data and analytics consultant. I write a lot of code and help businesses track their key metrics in order to measure and improve growth. It's a good job, but I am looking for more from life than just helping corporations make money.

Anyway, thanks for having me, and I hope to continue learning from you all.

Welcome, there should be plenty of resources here to help you out on your quest to chase that contract. Good luck.

Welcome.

I'm going the same route. There is a wealth of knowledge and resources here that will undoubtedly be very helpful to you.

What region are you in, and which ARNG SF Group are you looking at?

 

[theycallmeb]

TBD on which group I reach out to. I currently live in 19th territory, but the best location for my girlfriend's career is in 20th group territory. We have more to discuss on that front and this is absolutely something I need to get squared away ASAP.
