Default T minus 3 days and i got to vent
Not for nothing but I leave for basic training monday. Can't wait because its been something i wanted to do my whole life. I remember going hunting with my grandfather and he would let me wear his old army hat i miss those times. And watching history channel with my dad. Now its my turn im extremely pumped to go its going to be a new chapter in my life and its doing something great not only for me but for tons of people. I kind of just need to vent so if you were looking for a real post sorry. The anticipation is getting to me i really cant believe its finally going to happen it just seems unreal that the guys i used to look up to with so much awe that well i'll be one of them.

Default Best wishes...
...Be well,...

......You will do fine, the hype is to set you straight, and figure out who conforms to standards, and procedures...

...Do it the first time, or not at all,...

...and most of all, do not give "Terror" your address, he will mail letters to your drill instructor, and you will end up doing extra push ups,...

... ...

...always be there to help your brothers, and sisters in these times to come, you are the future, and your "get up, and go attitude seems to be right in stride, lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way,...

...Take charge, Take responsibility, and make a difference in the world to come, be compasionate for you enemy once defeated, yet kill them dead if advancing,...

...No if, an's, or's, but's about it...

...
