Thus for quite a while, I had no final ship date, so I wouldnt have been able to tell you when I would ship out, but I would tell people who asked, a round about month that i could ship out. So he could be telling the truth, or he is posing, I don't know, but i tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. and considering he has a date that he swore in on his signature. He could be misinformed about what he has regarding a contract. So to clarify, EricB146, would you list your current ship date as it appears on your paper work from MEPS.:confused:
