So I've seen how terrorists and rich Islamic states have been making a mockery of western powers. Anyways I'm 28 and I just swore into the US Military 37 days ago on delayed entry and based on my test scores I got advanced electronics missile systems. I'm starting out at an E3 but after training i look forward to an E5. Anyways take care slinging.org. I will not forget you.

sad to see you go, really Smiley

Remember to take your slings with you, and good luck Thumbs Up

They do let you use the internet in the army you know - drop in now and then and let us know how things are progressing.

So, what branch did you join?

Have fun  (HAHAHAHAHAHA, gasp,  HAHAHAHAHAA) in boot camp.

At least you will get a chance to leave your hometown.  Any idea where you will be stationed after school?

I'm not afraid of boot camp physically. I ritually run 5 k a day, and do more pushups and various types of sit ups than I care to describe.

I am in the Navy but I will never be on a submarine like you vetryan 15 because of my contract agreement. This is primarily due to my "test" scores on the Navy's ASVAB.

I however, absolutely respect the service you made to the United States of America. Thank you Sir!

Thanks CA and everyone else for your words.

I may have one more post of a photographed sling before I depart.

good luck ! boot camp wasn't that bad, but i grew up in a military family.  just alot of yelling and sleep deprivation.  the worse thing was I turned 18 in boot camp. it was the P5 day. on that day you get all your vaccines.  my worst birthday ever.  It was just a job, but i have alot of family that went into the military,  so it was kind of expected.

Boot camp is mental, physical stuff they will teach. 

Just keep the mindset that kept you running when you really wanted to stay in bed.

And it's not like you are going to Parris Island, after all.

Great Lakes?

Thank you for manning up for your country, Huntsman. Hey, it's not like you're falling off the face of the earth. You can stop by and visit us still. BTW, in some ways I actually enjoyed boot camp. You'll be fine.
