Congrats with that degree and the experiences she’s about to get it will def help out on the long run idk how the army is based on officers but the Air Force is top heavy as in too many officers So you could get lost if you don’t try n show out

Tell your sister to listen to the thoughts of the NCOs in the unit and be a leader

My aunt is a major in the Air Force and she’s well off and pretty much set for life

Congrats OP.

Ill say this...being black isnt hard in the Army but being a woman is. Theres alot of black leadership that practice nepotism and will look out for u...

But female soldiers:francis:


She gotta work extra hard. At least she’s MI so it wont be too bad. Ive seen a a lot of black MI soldiers enlisted and officers especially Human Intelligence.

you know how we always say....The AF sends the officers to the fight...The Army sends their enlisted...Army Officers are viewed as generalist in their career fields never mastering anything.

Yall apologists always talking if and when. shyt already is hitting the fan.
He means on a major level, like Katrina level

Most people dont know simple combat skills and cant even run a mile:mjlol:

So I dont see why some people on coli hate black veterans so much. Theres something that can be learned from them

This is few and far between especially amongst Combat Arms unless tankers or artillery.

U forgot Cav scouts too

And its not few and far between in Support units

The running joke is “every has a black sergeant major”...

But I was infantry and never had issues. I was around alot more hispanics than whites for some reason. Combat arms does have less blacks though (except the ones u listed and Cav scouts)

I was a Scout...It's not many of us that are black at all and I could only seem to get 1SG time in tank companies and HHT. I have always noticed FA and Tankers had more brothers in formation....I spent almost 4 years in 1-7 Cav and can literally name on my fingers every black 19D that was assigned there during that time.

you sure it wasn't a Combined Arms BN? Literally the only units i can think of where I saw more than a handful of Black scouts and I was never assigned there were all at Stewart.
