Thank you very much.
The appropriate "action" was to read the mission statement of this entire mentorship forum.

Roger. Understood.
I'm going to wait on enlisting. I could write paragraphs on it, I don't think that's necessary though. Getting out of my comfort zone and just going for things has changed my life in so many ways. It'd be fun to ride this out. I just wanted to thank everybody on here that's ever answered a question of mine or has given me some advice.

Based on my research I will end up with too much TIG as a SGT to be able to submit a CA packet. Bright side is that I am going to the promotion board in March, once I pin on SSG I will be able to meet the time in grade/ service requirements to be able to submit my packet. Though based on a suggestion for a further opportunity I am going to submit my packet for CST (which has a lot of the same requirements as CA).
You kids and your "reading" craze. Back in my day, we didn't have letters, we had pictures. Yes, the Internet was pictures. The really high speed units had colors, 8 bits! They had pictures in magenta and cyan and it was beautiful. The rest of us, we had black and green, just black and green for our Internet pictures. Letters were just a dream! Yessir, you kids have it easy today with your letters and your searching things and all of your colors.

According to the website the next A&S for CST is in NOV but that is the last one that is posted on the site. I would like to see it changed from a TDS assignment to a PCS move that way if you are selected to be retained in that role you would be able to get more training to better support the teams i.e. more indepth language training.
This is a bit late but, I graduated ITC in December.
Awesome job!

Well, I didn't make this last RASP Class. When I got to Pre-RASP, there were already like 170+ guys there. There was a Private News Network rumor that they would take PT score + how long you have been here in consideration. Well it ended up being just how long you have been here decides if you class up or not. The class leader tried to pull for me, but they said they needed to get the guys who have been here longer then me out the door. So I will for sure be in the next class. My PT score was medicore. 74 Push Ups, 86 Sit ups, 14:30 run. I was probably like top 40% because the super fast guys either suck at push ups or sit ups.
Until then, more running and PT. We run a lot here, and they are pretty fast. I am VERY average on the runs, and top 10% when it comes to strength/strength endurance. So the runs kick my ass, but it's all great. I like being here minus the standing in formation for hours sometimes. It would also be a tad more fun to have some more experienced guys around.
I will update in a couple of weeks when I class up (assuming they run the class in April).
