Man vs Food is entertaining on the Travel Channel. Gangland and Lockdown are a couple of favs as well. Planet Earth...

It appears that it doesn't actually kill, or even harm you, so how can it be effective? Isn't the whole thing be...

6 months of training=Contract of 3years 24 weeks[/quote] I signed for 4 years 18weeks. Not sure were the 18 weeks came from. I go to WTC for 5 weeks, then OSUT AIT at Benning for 7 weeks, then it gets a little confusing because normally you would go to Airborne then RIP but I'm already Airborne qual...

Good job man, that's great that you stuck with it and got what you wanted. Curious though, I'm interested in how much the Army is giving bonuses out for these days, and also how long are you going to have to wait before being shipped.
