I've wanted to enlist since the Fall of 2001. A stupid admission of an old medical problem had prevented me from doing so. I finally got everything sorted out and swore in last month.

So this Wednesday night, I go to the hotel and MEPS the next morning. From there, it's 9 weeks at Fort Benning!

I enlisted as a 25N - Joint Network Node Operator. After Basic, I'll be about five months at Fort Gordon for AIT. After that, who knows?

I'm really excited. To be a soldier has been my dream for several years, and now I can do it!

Keep your head down, mouth closed, and realise its all a mindfuck.

I'm glad you're happy, and hope you enjoy it all.
