I'm currently released from RIP hold and enjoying my Christmas vacation. I graduated from Delta company at Airborne and was in RIP hold for about a week and a half before exodus and I will have at least another week of hold when I return, I've heard my RIP class will start somewhere between the 10th...

I graduated the 5th of November from C 2/58 and I just finished up ground week here at Airborne. Aside from getting pneumonia near the end of OSUT which fucked me up pretty good for a while, everything is going well. Airborne is pretty cool, there is still bullshit but much less than at Sand Hill, b...

I'm in my 11th week of OSUT here at Ft. Benning and on my 36 hour pass, so I figured I'd stop in here for a sitrep. Everything is going well and I really enjoy the training we do, even though the waiting we have to do in between sucks. My pt is pretty good, I got a 286 on the test, and we finally go...

I will be leaving this evening for my final MEPs trip and hotel stay followed by my flight down to Fort Benning the following morning. I would like to thank all of the Rangers and Veterans on this site for all of the information and guidance that you have provided me with, it will definitly help me ...

Good luck, we're all pulling for you.

Last few I saw were Dodgeball, The Punisher, and Chronicles of Riddick.

This winter a 16 year old from my town who was snowmobiling through a field hit a strand of barbed wire at full speed and was decapitated.

Veteran AngryPistols, I will be leaving on the 22nd of this month, the same date that I had before.

I went back to MEPS today and finally was able to successfully renegotiate for an option 40 contract. I've been looking for this since November and it is great to finally have gotten it. I know I have a long road ahead but at least I got the first step down.

I joined because I love our country with all my heart, and the thought that there are people out there that would harm our nation and its citizens, and happily tear apart the ideals of freedom and justice that this country stands for enrages me, and I will do my best to preserve our nation and way o...

Thanks bberkley, it was no problem.

That was an interesting link, I had no idea Heinlein went to the naval academy, it does explain how he came up with some of his ideas.

Gates, I feel that this is one of the key points about Citizen status: Only those people who actually care about their fellow man, as demonstrated by a willingness to die for them, have adequately demonstrated that they are fit to serve society. bberkley, I agree with this, and I touched on this in...

Paratrooper bberkley, I thought that Starship Troopers was an excellent book, both in its general storyline and in the author's opinions on the meaning and value of citizenship. While I would not totally agree with the citizenship requirements that the government of the novel placed on its inhabitan...

Good luck.

Welcome.
