What time would you have?

Ok, lets imagine that I have a 11X with Option 40. I am not being held on hold over in the future. I am heading off to basic next week. Through out the Military training, would I have any time to my self to train for RIP? And learn how to swim?

I have not swam ONCE in my life. I am a 15 year old kid that lives out in the boonies on a farm. Would the instructors teach you how to swim? *I rather know how to swim before RIP*

Remember, this is just imagining.

Thanks!

Never heard of 'swim tutoring' before. That's a rich imagination you have. Perhaps they would become a kinder/gentler army just for you, recognizing what a unique individual you are.

Oops - bagging easy targets - my bad.

Rangers, my imagination is not exactly like that, I just did that to get the point across.

Thanks!

Ya got a driver license? Got a bike? Got 2 feet and a good pair of legs? Got a buddy?

Find a pond and get wet. Use that imagination. Ya want something, you get it. Period.

Ya wanna be a Ranger? Learn how to swim.

* kinda old topic *
Since you're only 15, and you're worried about learning how to swim WHILE in basic training...why not go find a watering hole or indoors pool BEFORE you enlist? you must have a YMCA or fitness center somewhere neer you...
