Ranger Jim,

Last Tuesday I took my full physical at meps. So far things are looking positive. I'm currently in Jacksonville right now and have to go to meps again tomorrow to see a hip specialist. If the specialist gives me the ok (which I'm sure he will) I'll be headed back to meps again on Thursday to enlist!

Rangers,

Here's a quick sitrep. After 3 excruciatingly long days at meps (unfortunately I got held over) my processing is almost complete. I've been given the thumbs up by everyone and have qualified to enlist. When I got back to my recruiter he called the ROC and reserved an option 40 contract for me so I will be headed back to meps next Monday and Tuesday to sign my 11x Opt 40 contract and swear in! My ship date is 20140513!
