Basic Training, here I come.
I know I don't post often or at all, but I do lurk around like a ghost. The information on this site is amazing, and I thank the Quiet Professionals for their knowledge.
After quite a bit of obstacles at the MEPS, I've finally got my ship date for 45B, Small Arms/Artillery Repair.
October 11th, at Fort Jackson.
I'm very happy.

I appreciate the support, everyone. Means a lot to me.
I'll give it my all, for sure. My goal is to eventually join the Quiet Professionals, so there's no room for anything but everything I can possibly give.
Everyone on this site is motivation enough to give it all I've got.
Again, I appreciate it.
