This subreddit has a wiki page containing information and links to answered questions. Click here or on "wiki" in the top tab menu.

Subreddit Rules:
1. No bigoted language or witch-hunting.
2. Keep discussions civil. We are all on the same side.
3. AMAs with mod approval only. Same for fundraising requests and ads for your products, as well as survey/research requests or petitions.
4. Asking for or providing the answers to online or in-class military courses or tests is not allowed. This also applies to discussing exploits in course software.
5. Suggestions to do anything fraudulent, immoral or illegal are not tolerated.
6. Overtly political posts are not allowed.
7. Moderators are the final word in whether a post will be removed or not. We welcome civil discussion in the modmail but will not engage with flamebait, spam or outright attacks without the end goal of courteous dialogue.

Posting Guidelines:
• (1) If your post could be answered by your NCO, Google or a 5 minute call with an Army Recruiter, then please do so.
• (2) Ensure your posts actually encourage discussion. No memes, low effort posts, reposts or crossposts from r/all. If it is appropriate for r/AdviceAnimals or any other meme or image macro subreddit, it is not appropriate for r/army. Consider r/armycirclejerk or r/justbootthings instead.
• (3) This is not a pro-military circlejerk, but please have some sources to base the more controversial topics on.
• (4) Use the search bar. It is very likely that whatever you are about to post has already been posted before. This includes questions about duty stations, MOSs, boots, or what to take to the field.
• (5) We don't all know what a 12V or a 35Q or a 94L is. Post the description along with your obscure MOS code.
• (6) Please keep your flair text rank or duty-related. The purpose of flair is so we know you have a background in a particular subject matter. Moderators reserve the right to change flair at will.
• (7) Source your posts well. No rumors, PNN or unfounded speculation. Links from USAWTFM, ASMDSS and similar at moderator discretion. No Stolen Valor.
• (8) N00b / Joining questions go in the Weekly Question Thread (or Recruiter Thread) stickied at the top, in the black-on-gold link at the top, and in the sidebar. Do not answer n00b questions on the main boards. Use the report button.
