Hello,

First off, I am grateful for the opportunity to be here and the wealth of knowledge at this site.

I recently enlisted in the Virginia Army National Guard, and will be attending Basic and AIT beginning in July. I just wrapped up my junior year at Virginia Commonwealth University where my major is Political Science and minor is Homeland Security.

I grew up in the "heart of the billion dollar coal industry", otherwise known as southern West Virginia, which I do believe earns me the title of hillbilly for which I am proud.

After finishing my degree, sometime in 2008, my sights are set on making it to SFAS by route of either the 19th or 20th Group. I am looking forward to the challenge, the opportunity, and the privilege of serving with some of America's greatest warriors, if I qualify.

I will be using this site to research, prepare, and grow in the mean time.

I cannot fully express my gratitude, but thank you all very much.
