Its just really annoying though to be honest... I really just want to do it. And I know Im not the best street candidate, but I want to try without stepping on anyones toes.
Its my recruiter and the commander are saying the same things.
And no. Once you ship, your recruiter and your MEPS will not talk to your basic training unit and tell them to make your life hell. They won’t even care about you, except for whether you pass as that affects their numbers. As much as they may make you feel important, you are a number to them. It’s a business deal. They want you to sign up and enlist, bc that is their job to fill enlisted slots. That’s how they are rated as NCOs and officers. You will be treated just like everyone else. If they threaten you with something like that, that’s another IG complaint, but I doubt they would.
