Did you serve in the Marines or something Havok?

If I were to tell everyone here in TF were i've been, I'd honestly have to hunt you all down and um, "Dispose" of you.

And i'd like to keep my membership here friendly. K?

Anywho... it'll be rough, it'll be painful, it'll be many nights of little to no sleep. You will do things, that you will not understand why you are at that time. but in doing al of this, you will gain a personal pride, respect, an totally different attitude and way of thinking when it's all done. It's not about mindlessly taking orders and doing stuff... You wil learn WHY some things are done certain ways, and at certain times. Being in the Military... ANY Military branch, is about a lifestyle change. Period. After basic and AIT your life will be much different than your EVER thought possible.

Congradulations and I thank you for stepping up and helping those of us that are already serving.

Thanks everyone for the positive responses and feed-back. After this training, I'll go for my AIT. There is also an Airborne Ranger slot open with some sort of sophisticated training, as my recruiter explained it. If I like the experience enough, I may take up two MOS's. lol, anyway, I'm getting in real good shape. I went from couch-potato 2 months ago to jogging four miles consecutively every day. When I get out, I'll be back at tech-forums sharing my experiences. Anyway, thanks again, guys...
