TWO WEEKS!
My friends are throwing me a "surprise" party on the 31st, so at least I'm going out with a bang.

Georgia had the same state-wide function.
He had something like a field day at Dobbins.

Those DI's were pretty intimidating.

June 2nd is getting here fast.

I realize i've only got three weeks left and it feels like nothing.
I'm not gonna see alot of my friends from high school after this, so I'm trying to have some...

Wait wait wait.

You're having second thoughts about going reserves? I could understand being apprehensive if you were going active duty, but the reserves? I know alot of guys who are doing their...

I had that as an option when my recruiter sat down with me after MEPS. I couldn't decide between 0300 or 2600. I ended up going with cryptologist because if I end up learning Arabic, that's something...

It's in the contract. My contract has me in SigInt with a signing bonus of $15,000. ASVAB was a 96, but I'm not sure that's relevant; you just mentioned your friend's score.

I'm just going with my initial contract at this point. I'll have to see how I like it. I'm going in as a cryptologist, and from what I hear, the FBI and CIA have a habit of hiring. Either that or...

I ran Cross Country and Track while I was in high school. When i started running, puking wasn't a problem. The thing is, we practiced after school and lunch was a little over two hours prior.

It's been a while since I posted in this thread.

My parents have mostly come around. Particularly my mom. She was worried about me getting shot, but now that I've decided to go 26XX and there's...

I'd like to know more about the school as well.
I took my DLAB around two weeks ago. Got a 124.

I read the page on about.com and I read a couple older threads on here, but anything else would be...

I think he might be confused.
:D

See, I was mistaken.

But only by a few letters, so it wasn't a horrible mistake.

I think I remember seeing a special on the history channel a while back about the Marine Rangers. I might be horribly mistaken, but I think it was about the first guerrilla force during WWII.

I had a tumor removed, and the only thing that really mattered with that was that I was cleared and it was a done deal. So as long as you remember one of your Doctor's contact information so they can...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that on top of what you've already got, if you get another referral during your 10 day leave after boot you make LCpl.

The magic of google.

All answers present.

I finally spoke with my recruiter today.

He offered up a scenario that I hadn't thought about, and he said is completely possible. He said the thing he would do is enlist as Intelligence, learn a...

Bring on the Sand Fleas!

At MEPS the only things they had us write down on our medical papers were any surgeries or emercency room visits we'd had. We had to put down a general idea of what happened, and any doctor contact...

I'll send you the video.
We'll figure out how you can pay me later.
:D

I rented Jarhead and Heartbreak Ridge this weekend. Both movies were pretty good, even if Heartbreak Ridge did have alot of really bad parts. When I say bad I mean 'there's no way this could ever be...

It would probably help if I had the awesome red t-shirt.

Did I go through MEPS just like everyone else? Yep.
Did I get a shirt? Did anyone from my RSS get a shirt that day? Nope.

I asked my recruiter this question, but he never called me back with an answer.

Which MOS is easier to reinlist/transfer into?
If I choose to go in as one MOS, and then try and reinlist as my...

Wise words. I learned this from my grandmother at a young age. She's a Waffle House waitress.

Yeah, that's right.
My Grandma = that creepy red headed lady that takes your coffee order
