    well im not technically enlisted yet, but next month i ship to basic training for the army. when i attended college in savannah i was in the ROTC program b/c i wanted to start off as an officer, but long story short i didnt finish school (ran out of money, and my wife got pregnant) so i decided just to go in as a regular enlisted soldier, and go back to school w/ my army college fund and MGIB.

    Ft.Knox, Kentucky. i have always wanted to join the military and planned on going right out if high school (i was in JROTC and it seemed like a good path) but my junior year i met a girl (who is now my wife LoL) and got a pretty good job my senior year so i put the military on hold. then we decided to move to savannah to go to college and i found out about their ROTC program and that got me interested in the military again. then i got laid off from my most recent job, and the military was still in my mind....and uncle sam is always hiring..LoL but i will go in as an E3 (PFC) b/c of my high school JROTC so it's all good.

    Been the Army National Guard for about 6 years as enlisted. Also came in as a E-3 and hopefully will be getting my E-6 next year. But being enlisted gets old quick though. I'll be going WOC (Warrant Officer Candidate) soon after I get home from Afghanistan.

    I know he is having a blast! I went to Ft Knox for basic and AIT too. I was a 19K (M1 Abrams Armor Crewman) at first. Then reclassed to a 25B (Information Technology Tech). Hopefully I will be able to go see him graduate, but I'm not sure if we will get back home in time enough.
