Going to Fort Jackson, S.C. for basic and then to Fort Lee, Va. for my AIT. Was gonna join the Marine Corps, but they just couldn't offer me what I wanted as far as training.

Going to go to Airborn School, Air Assualt School, hopefully Sniper and Ranger School as well......Gonna be a Lean mean Fighting Machine and help defend the United States and all it's Citizen's while I serve my country......

Congrats to you and thank you for your service.

I'm reminded of a little ditty my Uncle Joe (Korean war vet) would sing.

Soldiers that want to be heroes
Number practically zero
But there are millions
That want to be civilians.

Awesome. Congrats and thanks!

I was a few short paces from the recruiter's office myself right out of high school, but got some scholarship offers for college and ended up staying a civilian. I was being chased around town by the Navy recruiter to go into a program for engineering on a Nuke sub. Things turned out alright for me, but sometimes I regret not having served my country.

Congrats to you and thank you for your service!

Btw tell the short horns to come back to Louisville and take another beatdown! J/K and a sincere thanks. It takes a strong young man to join the service and it takes an even stronger young man to do it in this day and time. Good Luck!

I know how you feel. I felt the same way 32 years ago when I enlisted. There will be rough times and there will be happy times. I only remember the happy times now. Good Luck!
