Post by boozer824 »

I just got back from meps. I got a 89 on the ASVAB and passed my general physical. I got my official opt 40 contract, but I have a hold on the airbourne physical till next week for my hurt elbow, besides that everything went good and I will be shipping out on 20080227.

what's wrong with your elbow?

Make sure you can pop your ears.

SFC Hit_it I fell off a trailor at work and twisted my arm a little so it was hard to touch my shoulder in the physical. The doctor at meps said i should be fine by the end of this week. I passed all of the airbourne physical except for the part about joint tenderness/restricted mobility.

I suggest that if you're going to be one, you learn to spell it:

It's A-I-R-B-O-R-N-E!
