It is good to see your going to be defending our country, good luck. If I was old enough I would seriously think about doing it myself.

Dude, It's a bold and noble move you're making. I wish you the best of luck and I hope you get everything out of it that you want to. Thanks for you service. If they ever wind up sending you to Iraq... kick some serious *** for all of us Z car guys!!!

Rod.

I went to meps this summer and enlisted into the Marine Corps. I ship out for basic June 19th after I graduate and go on vacation. I will be a combat vehicle repair mechanic. Unfortunately I don't get paid till either during boot camp or after. I'll save you the lecture thermal wake of going to the army instead of the Marines but congrats.
