cbrjess0815 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I joined the National Guard this week. I ship out for basic Aug 31st. So we gotta make this summer awesome because I will be gone for 6 months. It kinda works out because I will be back in time for next season so that will definitely be good. Anybody that would like to keep in touch when I'm gone send me addresses so I can keep them in my little black book so I can write everybody for the first 9 weeks!! Wish me luck!

justin0469 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Congrats, you'll learn alot. I was active duty until Feb 08 and I know National Guard/Reserves obviously isn't the same as active duty but it will be an experience. Personally, I wouldn't be opposed to a mandatory 2 yr service requirement for males out of high school. It would teach alot of people alot of lessons and experiences that you just don't get otherwise. Feel free to comment, but I'm not going to turn this into an arguement with someone that disagrees.

You're allowed to disagree +1 it would teaches respect and lower crime rate to imhohad to clarify for underdeveloped frontal lobes. the men and women that graduate from a boot camp are usually a little more respectful to society. was not saying they get respect. and yes why thank you im a commie fuck commies and the weak, frail and scared.

cbrjess0815 Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Thanks for the support everyone! I will be in communications as a signal support systems specialist and I will also get trained 31B as an MP once I get into my unit. My unit is an MP unit here in Cincinnati. I'm excited, I was always attracted to the military but to much of a pussy to think I would make it through boot camp. It's definitely gonna change my life. I dont want to be 30 and and still be sitting in a shithole parts dept make 30K a year the rest of my life. The Guard is going to pay for 100% of my tuition too so when I get back I am going to go to the police academy to eventually be a police officer!
