    How to check CRSC packet status for Army

    They hadn't received it because the file was bigger than 3 MB. Are these people kidding with this BS?

    How to check CRSC packet status for Army

    I sent it to the email address [email protected]. I've read that there's a way to check online but the links provided no longer work (I think the thread was from about 2 years ago).

    How to check CRSC packet status for Army

    Can anybody tell me how to check my CRSC packet status for the U.S. Army? I've tried following the directions provided in other threads but the links provided no longer work. I just want to verify that they received my packet and see what stage it's at. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Anybody take Chantix/Varenicline for nightmares?

    Before I type a word, up front I need to say I'm NOT recommending anybody actually take this stuff if they never have. Look it up - it's meant to help quit smoking (and boy does it work), but I've heard an awful laundry list of side effects up to and including suicide. So if you're already...

    The Jabberwocky- a paradigm and description of the IDES.

    Real-life story (although I don't actually know which specific systems were responsible); (IF YOU DON'T LIKE LAUGHING, SCROLL DOWN TO THE PARAGRAPH BEGINNING WITH 'So, to recap...') July 2011 - Return from deployment with documented TBI. Fort Dix personnel somehow miss this in my medical...

    In Military Care, a Pattern of Errors but Not Scrutiny

    Any chance you/he might have the full name, license number/type/state, and employment status of the award-winner who made this decision? Perhaps even a phone number (home would be best)?

    Ethical Dilemma (Blow the whistle or not?)

    lol I only said ABC cuz their local affiliate happened to be the one that called me about it... Which was more than a little creepy cuz they called like 4 hours after the conversation took place. I mailed it with a hatchet and a big bag full of dimes. I can only hope the person opening their...

    Ethical Dilemma (Blow the whistle or not?)

    The gal at ABC said it would be better to wait until I had my retirement card in hand (got it yesterday). Now that Kunz guy who used to do the meat at the commissary is the big 'Fort Carson' story right now. She wants to wait until this VA investigation going on 'gets hot' (whatever that means).

    Ethical Dilemma (Blow the whistle or not?)

    Oh definitely - the first thing I did after his little temper tantrum was to put this on the cloud and on several e-mail drafts. I'm not too worried about the legal ramifications, for the obvious reason that stealing from a thief is hard to report, but also because I didn't make the recording...

    Ethical Dilemma (Blow the whistle or not?)

    So I have a recording of the commander of the medical unit here throwing a tantrum at me with my mom in the room. According to him, wounded soldiers are 'nothing but a burden' to their families (that is a direct verbatim quote). He sees nothing in our future but 'living in mom's basement...

    Sleep apnea question

    Oh I forgot to ask; were you near a burn pit or waste dumping area during a significant part of your deployment? (Port-a-Johns may count...not sure, but we lived right next to a burn pit which was right next to this huge pool where all the sewage from the base was processed. Lovely smell. All...

    Sleep apnea question

    Gomez, This might come a bit late but hopefully in time to be of some help; give the attached file a read. It was given to all of us without a name filled in for pretty much anybody at Kandahar Air Field. If the location/timing fits or is close enough, you may want to include it in your...

    How final are the numbers on a 199

    Got my 199 with a 50/80 Permanent, so 2 questions - are those numbers pretty much it as long as I signed the 199 and checked box 1 on the back? 2nd question - (bear in mind I may not actually do this, I just want to know if I have the option) Do I have the option of refusing the 80% VA and...

    Procedure to Initiate 15-6 Investigation on a Cadre Member

    I...don't think I can do that. Which is actually the biggest sign I'm healing somehow. Fact is...they can't fight him. Well, they could, but it'd be like getting into a barfight handcuffed. I have advantages they don't. I can't be reduced. And kicking me out becomes exponentially more...

    Procedure to Initiate 15-6 Investigation on a Cadre Member

    Soccer, I must have misread the forum title. And I think I'm misreading it now. I'm reading 'Army Warrior Transition Units'. I'm not seeing the word benefits (or, as you put it, benifits, dawg), nor the acronyms VA, IDES, or SSDI. I'm brain injured, but as far as I know I haven't been...

    Procedure to Initiate 15-6 Investigation on a Cadre Member

    I was just wondering if anybody knew if there's a form or anything that I can use to request that a commander investigate a cadre member. I report to this person, and I also outrank this person by quite a bit. In intellect and grade. (yeah, yeah, I'm a tad bitter) The claim is that I haven't...
