So I just for outta A-School and indoc'd at NOSC San Diego, they couldn't get ahold of my CT unit I'm supposed to drill with, so just put me with a random temp unit until they fix the problem :lol: also very cool being the only non ranked person and only non previous active duty in the room. I had no idea what the gently caress anyone was saying 90% of the time. And apparently because of the error I missed out on a class I coulda taken for AT for this fiscal year. Gotta love being NAT and no one from bootcamp until now has not a goddamn clue what I do or where I'm supposed to be.

Which speciality CT? I'm a NAT CTR, and I've had similar problems since my first drill last December. I'm currently working on the ability to drill with another unit, but so far my reservist career has consisted entirely of sitting in a classroom on drill weekends and doing NKO or other trainings. So much fun, especially after training, which I genuinely enjoyed.

Being in for such a short time, I can't really give much advice, however: if you receive any sort of email about a IDCR command newcomer orientation, GO TO THAT. I just went to one at the end of last month in San Diego, and not only did I learn a lot about the reserves I hadn't been told yet, I was given contact information for a unit near my location so I could attempt to set up arrangements to drill with them. I am not certain of when they have these events, but I definitely recommend attending one as soon as possible.
