If anyone knows anyone that may be interested in joining the Army National Guard but not sure, let me know. I JUST got back from Basic Training/AIT and can answer all their questions to see if its what they really want to do or not. The commercials and recruiters will sell you a dream. I'll give you/them reality. I support it 100% and think its a great, life changing experience. But, I saw a LOT of people get discharged because of dumb shit that they wernt prepared for. Anyway, in a nutshell... you'll go away for 4+ months (depending on what job you chose), and come back with $5000+ in your bank (more if you get bonuses)... then all you are obligated is one weekend a month pretty much. PM me if you want the real deal.

Daaaang fatties! JK. The Guard is overstrengthed right now so things they used to give easy waivers for are hard to come by now. If its something you REALLY want, YOU can make it happen. Watch what you eat, and RUN RUN RUN. I can introduce yall to some military runs we did in basic/ait if interested. Before you go to a recruiter, PM me with questions and your goals. Make sure you got your facts straight before going in there.
