Advertisemtent to Join the National Guard
meport
as a "Water Treatment Specialist", MOS 92W. It seems that this is the hot,
need them right now skill the National Guard is recruiting for this week
end. I read the advertisement, pressed the links for the drop downs and
figured out I could make up to 5700.00 a year for 12 drills and 2 weeks of
my time a year. I think I'll apply, considering that I spent my entire
career in the Army as an Engineer and had several tours in utilities
detachments and units that had water purification team(s) attached. I
worked with and for them making nice, potable water (the color an taste
thereof not being an issue).
I have one question - it does ask what year I was born on the application.
Since I'm over the age of 40 and covered under the Federal Age
Discrimination Act (Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967) and
covered Disabled American (Title I and Title V of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990) and am a Disable Veteran and Veteran of Viet Nam
(The Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act), do I have to tell
them how old I am?
I meet all the requirements for employment. I already know how to set up
the water purification and processing equipment. I already know how to make
potable and drinkable water (the color and taste thereof not being an
issue). I already now how to sling pipes and rig pumps. I already know how
to store potable and drinkable water (the color and taste thereof not being
an issue). And I now how to set up and run a potable and drinkable water
(the color and taste thereof not being an issue) distribution point. Hell,
I know just about everything there is to know about how about potable and
drinkable water (the color and taste thereto not an issue), so I won't even
need a lot of training. I already went to Basic, Combat Engineer AIT, the
Construction Course, the Sapper School, the Demolitions Specialists Course,
the Utilities Specialist Course and several other sundry courses applicable
to making potable and drinkable (the color and taste thereof not an issue)
water. I raring to go and make my 5700.00 per year.
I'm just concerned about that age issue thing. Think I have a chance of
beating it?
