How do you add EOD Volunteer, SFAB Volunteer and Airborne Volunteer and Drill Sergeant Volunteer to your ERB? In the section where the DA Photo is? I do not see it anywhere in ARMY ASK Portal or am I on the wrong website. The guidance I received said that I can add it up there myself without S1etc.

It's not something that goes on your SRB. The items you select for volunteer in ASK get put on your SRB as ASCO codes, Assignment Consideration codes. They are two digit codes that are sometimes in the area near the DA photo. They are driven by ASK, your S1 can't add them, and they have absolutely no affect on anything. They are for your branch manager to only.

The reason the ones you can affect are basically worthless is because all those "Volunteer" codes don't actually volunteer you for anything. You have to physically volunteer for SFAB, Airborne, Warrant, Drill, and Recruiter if you want to volunteer for them.

Roger that, I was receiving a 1 on 1 and Top was asking why I do not have anything in that section. I know nothing about "Army ASK" or where to add that stuff to make my ERB look "Presentable"

SGT (Join to see) - that just means your 1SG doesn't know what any of that stuff even means, the fact your 1SG didn't tell you how to change add any ASCO's confirms that. That's the equivalent of "just put something in there so it looks the same as everyone else's"
