In regards to my first post I've answered/solved my own questions. So it turns out back in 2006 the Army was different and there has been alot of changes since then. The MOS "94 Kilo Army Apache Attack Helicopter Systems Repairer" used to be the name of the MOS back in 2006. It is now called "15 Romeo AH-64 Attack Helicopter Repairer". The MOS and Job description is pretty much the same. As far as my AIT my orders stated that it would have lasted 52 weeks(1 Year 1 Month). Now, 15 Romeo AIT school only lasts 17 Weeks(4 Months 1 Week). My orders then stated i would have shipped to Fort Benning, Georgia which is rather odd because they specialize in sites for the U.S. Army Infantry Training School, as well as the U.S. Infantry school, the Airborne School, the School for the Americas as well as the Ranger Training Brigade. The AIT was and is supposed to be at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia even currently today thats where the AIT is located for 15 Romeo. My theory in regards to my orders being to attend AIT in Fort Benning, Georgia is either my orders were incorrect or they wanted to me re-class my MOS for whatever reason i dont know for sure why my orders said this. Furthermore i now have all my information correct as i based it on hours of extensive internet research on several military/army websites and have even contacted an Army Recruiter regarding this matter. I apologize for any incorrect information and any confusion this may have caused. Thank you to all for understanding.

Here is a little insight that I picked up from my time in service. You need a primary and a secondary mos. Pick a secondary that you can get promoted in or advance in. A lot of time our primary has a long waiting list or there are just too many people. Like an infantry MOS. Being in the military is similar to any job. The more valuable you are the greater the demand and opportunity for advancement. If I can say this don't let anyone person control your career. You are that person that does his homework and follow through.

True that Sgt Porters your right and i totally agree. I always did have a different mos in mind upon listing but kinda fell into 94k/15r upon enlisting due to my extremely high electronic and mechanic scores on my ASVAB.

I never cease to be amazed at how no matter the lengths to which one tries to ostensibly research a career in that whole world, regardless of svc, the whole thing invariably seemingly takes on a liife of its own...it'd help to know more, if you could elaborate, hobbies, interests, aspirations, school, assocs, Bach, ambitions, senior enlisted, warrant, commissioned, grad school, so far as you might go into...also, reading interests, sports, incl and most esp martial arts, if any, I tend to favor aikido and iaido, myself...also, how far are you in AIT, do you want to go FAA airframe and powerplant (A&P) license, possibly, are you interested in avionics, what aspects interest you, what aspects don't, as well, the more you relate, the more I and others here might suggest...trust me, I thought I had it all right, and it all went totally sideways, so I can assure you, I've seenand/or heard of just about every variant on such craziness one can possibly imagine, honest, explain more, it's an interesting scenario, if nothing else, hunest, I'd be most genuinely eager to hear more, no rush, OK?

You'll find this useful for researching BVA decisions, if you wanna try lookin for favorable stuff by keyword, just trust me, BVA isn't amateur night, it's a useful handy guide, NOT the final arbiter, as I'd said, that's why God invented attorneys, OK?

OK, lemme explain a few things...I've been over to MIT, I bollixed up a chance to likely have gone to MIT, I saw a Ph.D. dissertation defense at MIT, you've gotta stop focusing on MIT, I'll help you find a suitable place, however, short of you having a near 4.0 GPA in high school, MIT is pure la-la land, that much I can virtually promise, honest...I need to know GPAs, specific AP coursework you've done, SAT and/or ACT scores, assocs, and bach stuff you've done thus far, I can help you, however, you need to be realistic, so, I need you to seriously focus, and tell me exactly what major and/or majors you'd want...also, you need to look at USPHS, their age limit is 44, and, while they're active duty, they don't have quite the same level of stricture, I think, as the other major svcs in terms of PT...if you do get VA-disability, however, that's gonna bollix up going back on active unless you'd give it up, which, after all the aggravation to get it, you're likely not gonna want to do, assumedly, OK? As I also said, I tend to favor aikido and iaido, you might find them to your taste intellectually, plus, they're highly aerobic, obviously, iaido less arduous, though still quite demanding, I assure you..and you've gotta stop the fluctuating between music and helping vets, the one is the one, the other is the other, you want law, my best friend in clinical training before my disability switched to law, so I have a pretty fair idea of what he went through to get it, if you want me to suggest stuff, lemme send you something else, however, the chances of it working aren't great, I've been told, still, you might find it of some interest, if only to read about, OK?

Some states still hae this Lincolnesque tradition, in NY where we are, NY reqs a year of ABA law school, the other two years can be done reading law in a practice with a NY bar licensee, I'm not sure out of state, another clinical friend of mine is in NJ, he had an interest in patent law, under a friend he has there with a NY law license, I've been told the pass rates for bar exams isn't great doing reading law, Washingston state being the best, I think, read the site, you'll understand more, OK?

Look...you can't be everthing...I can tell you have a decently gifted mind, however, you're quite honestly all over the place...if you want engineering, physics, math, comp sci (CS), IT, all of those are different, with different requirements and constraints...if you want clinical, that's a whole world unto itself, you might consider dentistry, which, if you went oral and maxillofacial surgery, in residency, has a back door to med called orthognathic surgery...look also at both allopathic (MD) and osteopathic (DO) programs, as well, however, to help you halfway coherently, I need a really detailed, organized biosketch, with virtually everything academic you've done, once I have that, so far as you might be able to relate it, I can suggest things...if you want music, there, I can't help, I have an interest in the math of music, which is a very serious topic, however, I know absolutely zero about it, aside from, as I'd said, having looked slightly into music therapy for a guy in the Pentecostal church we go to my wife likes, honest, OK? So, give me some coherent detail, tell me what part of the country you're in, not exactly, just generally, eastern, western, northwest, southwest, wherever, and I can suggest schools and programs, however, I need to know what you've done thus far, coherently, with focus, then I can at least try to suggest things for you more coherently, OK?
