Thanks for the tips. I will be stationed at Fort Jackson in Columbia S.C..

 

ft. jackson? that's a co-ed basic training site. be careful with the girls they might bring you more trouble. and let tell you this not every going to basic is butt ugly. but it will be more exciting than ft benning ga.

 

Happy travels...keep your eyes open!

 

Good luck! Hope to hear from you every so often.

 

HELL YEAH!!!! I won't hafta vent by myself. lol if you know what i mean. My dad was telling me that his AIT was at a Co-Ed training site when he first arrived the girls were butt-ugly. after about three weeks they were ok. after about 8 weeks they hot. then they got their leave and went off site. when they came back they were butt ugly again.lol.
You should get to. From what i hear my MOS will require a laptop so iwll be getting on the internet. lol. and i heard i get to take my car to AIT. SO i will still be a honda civic owner. maybe i will be able to sell this tho and get a 2000 SI. lol. and with the military discount. i will hopefully be able to insure it the way i want to. lol.
The oerks of the army is great. if you have ever considered it you, should go see and army recruiter the opportunities are limitless. the way i have it figured between the tuition assistance program, MGIB, base salary,insurance, provided food, and other perks i will be making over 42K per yr for 4 yrs. thats great at 19 yrs old. isnt it? and what do i hafta spend it on? I get free meals, free room and board.
I hafta buy toiletries but i barely spend about 50/mo. on that.

My dad gave me one piece of advice about it. When you get on top pf the wooden post and you are trying to climb and you realize that you are scared of heights. " do not tell the Drill seargant to have sexual intercourse with himself." he said he got written up for that one, and do not ever get into a tussle with an SF. he said he has seen 2 SF's clean out an entire NCO club by themselves. and he said don't ever get ****faced. He said on his 21st birthday he found himself in the slammer for Assault and battery with a deadly weapon and attempted murder. He said keep comtrol of it. i luaghed.

 

[sm=patriot.gif] cant wait to here from ya

 

well, I know polo is in the armed forces and he gets on once in awhile. So I would suspect you would say hi also.

 

Hell yeah. i surely will when i can. I really like thie forum. I have not found another forum where ppl do not bicker and fight over petty little ****. and when they do they get shut down quickly. I will be proud to wear my hondacivicforum.com window decal when i get the money to order it. money is a little tight. b/c my work decided since i was quitting they didn't need to "sink" alot of money into me b/c they will not get a return. This really blows huh.

 

the sf guys must be the special forces guys right? don't f**k with those guys. also rangers are the same way. one thing tho, if you don't live in the south get ready for some big time humidty. it sucks. you can be standing in the shade and you will sweat.

 

It's called "Desert Eyes" dude. A lot like beer goggles! Trust me, your dad ain't lying. Good luck at Basic. Just remember, it'll be over quicker than you think. And your only regret, that you will find when you hang out with some of them, is that you should have gone Chair Force! Best wishes for a safe return!
