Does OSHA have jurisdiction over the Army?
By Executive Order the Army, and the other branches of the US armed forces, are directed to provide occupational safety and health at least as stringent as that of OSHA.
The executive branch administrative agencies (like OSHA) don't generally have authority on military installations, or in military operations. Typically there will be a military manual that essentually restates the civilian requirements, but is enforced by inspectors in the military. Of course, if the General has an issue and calls the local OSHA office an inspector would be willing do an inspection.

How can an illegal immigrant join the army to become a us citizen?
Become legal and start paying taxes to start
You prrety much can't ! Seach enroling terms over the internet send and email describing your situation but witouth the illegal part and wait for an answer.
EDIT:
Technically you cant, you would need to have a birth certificate, i think a social security number (not sure though). and a greencard. As we speak there is a bill called the Dream Act that will allow undocumented inmigrants who entered as children before they where 16 to join the military and get help paying for college, but its not a law yet.
If you have a parent like your mom or dad or a sister who is a resident or citizen ask if they can help you fix your status by sponsoring you. (get help from a lawyer though) its a lengthly procces but its the sure way.

Can a soldier quit from the army?
Generally, once you sign and take the oath, you are in the service until your enlistment is due. There are ways to leave the military but it is a long process. Hardship discharge, medical discharge, and bad conduct discharge are some ways to leave the military but keep in mind that there are consequences for your actions.
With a bad conduct discharge, you will not be able to obtain any employment from the federal government or from any company that does work for the federal government. You also might face prison time depending on the reason for your bad conduct discharge.

Can an army medic wear the combat action badge?
Yes. Unlike the Combat Infantryman Badge, Expert Infantryman Badge, and Combat Action Badge - which are Group I awards - the Combat Medic and Expert Field Medic Badges are Group II awards. The CAB was intended for personnel who are not eligible for the Combat Infantryman Badge. Contrary to what was previously stated, not everyone who serves in an Infantry unit is eligible for a CIB. A Combat Medic in an Infantry unit does not get awarded a CIB, for example. If that unit has dedicated communications personnel assigned to the unit, they're not eligible for the CIB (however, someone with an 11B MOS who is serving as a radiotelephone operator is eligible for a CIB).
One interesting contrast with the CAB vs. the CIB and CMB is that the CAB is awarded - at least in theory - only to those who make direct contact with the enemy, whereas the only requirements for the CIB and CMB is that you spend 30 days in a zone for which the award is authorised, whether you make contact or not. Truth of the matter is, there are plenty of CAB recipients who have legitimately earned it - there's also a good number of fobbits who've received them because some mortars landed on the opposite side of the camp they were at.
By the way, the Combat Medic badge is no longer exclusive to line medics - from 2001 to 2004, the Army revamped it's MOS classification system. The MOS of 91B (Combat Medic) was removed, and was folded into the MOS of 68W (Healthcare Specialist) - which encompasses a much broader range than the old 91B MOS did. Thus, you have medics being awarded CMBs who've never so much as left the FOB.

Which purchase requisition type is not subject to workflow approval in GFEBS?
Miscellaneous is not subject to workflow approval.
This is the real way that the military do it, well at least the Honor Guard Way.
- Brush off any dirt or dust on the boot, from heel to toe with the hard-bristled brush.
- Wrap the duster cloth around your index finger, making sure there are no wrinkles. Apply a medium layer of polish to the boot using the duster and your finger. Rubbing in until a faint shine sneaks through.
- Once the faint shine comes through and the polish has been worked into the boot, take your index finger and the cloth and dip it Lightly into the warm water, and start rubbing it into the boot over the polish in small circles about an inch wide. Keep doing this until a greater shine comes through and the swirls start to disappear.
- Leave it to dry for a few minutes, and then once dry, take your index finger again and apply a thin layer of polish to the boot, start rubbing it in until an even better shine comes through, then apply the water to it using the method in Step 3. Leave to dry again.
- Take the damp index finger and apply a tiny dot of polish to the boot and work in till it shines. Make sure that the cloth is very damp but not dripping.
- Repeat Step 5 until you get the desired level of shine.
- Take the duster (fold it into a smallish rectangle) or soft shoe brush and buff the boot all over until it starts to shine as much as you want it to be.
- Make sure that the polish you use is a Kiwi brand, as other brands will probably tarnish your boots and contain chemicals that will make them crack
- You can also use vinegar instead of warm water for improved results.
- In step 6 you should apply maybe about 8-9 layers as it gives best shine.
- Apply the polish to the sole edges as well. Boots look much neater and greater if they are cleaned literally from ground to top.
- You may also want to consider using cotton wool unless your duster has been boil washed because of the yellow dye in the duster.
- TO GET BEST SHINE USE KIWI "PARADE GLOSS"- IT CONTAINS SILICONE WHICH MAKES THE SHOE/BOOT MUCH MORE SHINY-but will make the boots crack if they are the base layer.
- Another option is to use Leather Luster. This is a product that you paint on to the boot and allow to dry. This will give you an almost "instant" mirror finish with low maintenance. However, this finish will crack and will be next to impossible to remove. It should only be used on surfaces that will not bend.
- Another point to think about is to melt the polish onto the boot/shoe - sit the polish tin in hot water to soften to a thin paste and rub in.
- Old stockings are the best to use for buffing - just make sure they are old and not your mum's!
- Do not use Morello on leather as it will ruin them.
- Do not use alcohol as it can strip the already existing polish of the shoes!
- Be wary when using Kiwi Parade Gloss as the silicone in the wax will create large, deep scratches in the polish if and when you scuff your shoe
- Tin of Wax-based Polish (Kiwi Parade Gloss or Kiwi Shoe polish)
- Yellow Dusting cloth
- 1 Soft Bristled Shoe Brush
- 1 Hard Bristled Shoe Brush
- Cup of Warm Water
Do you become emancipated when you join the army at 17?
Yes, enlistment in the military results in "automatic" emancipation. Please keep in mind that this does not supercede some other laws such as the legal age to buy alcohol.
Can you go from the 101st Airborne to 75th Ranger regiment?
Yes, you can, although the likelihood of your chain of command facilitating it is questionable. If you were lower enlisted, you'd have to attend RIP. If you're an NCO or officer, you'd have to have attended and completed Ranger School first.
