Some of mine are:

been to Guantanamo bay

been through the Panama Canal

crossed the arctic circle and equator on a ship

seen the stars from the ocean on a cloudless, moonless night while the ship had all exterior lights off for stealth

I’d love to hear yours

so this is not really what I assume most people on this subreddit post about but it’s a genuine question so here goes. our high school homecoming theme is night on the high seas if I were to wear navy dress blues with no rank / rate, or ribbons just a plain dress blue uniform and I would not be claiming to be part of the navy would that be ok? like stolen valor wise or anything like that?

So my question is how would the BBA system affect me in taking rank. I’m an FC about to be frocked 3rd class assigned to a third class billet. Am I able to promote to second within my first contract? I’ve tried to read instruction to find an answer but I’m having issues. Thanks in advance.

Everyone I’ve asked, from both DMVs, multiple insurance carriers and multiple service members has a different answer so I figure I’ll add to the confusion and get Reddit to weigh in as well!

We are CT residents with CT registered vehicles and CT auto insurance. We are PCSing form DC (who doesn’t care where your car is registered/insured, as long as you are following the registering states rules) to VA. CT will not allow us to have CT tags without a CT insurance policy.

We don’t want to re register our cars - while there are exemptions for military against personal property tax, I’ve heard that VA will do their hardest to make the process so difficult that people just pay. Additionally, VA wants all jointly owned cars to be registered in VA unless we are both active duty.

Do just bite the bullet and register in VA? Our home owners insurance broker says we have to reregister but our current carrier (USAA) says to just keep it all in CT.
