Re: Intro
Ranger JLTW, when I said "get the tab" I didn't just mean a cool piece of cloth. I meant everything it stands for sir. And as for already running, I start off monday on a treadmill at 4mph. They will slowly build me up.

Re: Please help with info on medical question
Rnager hit_it, a recruiter on the goarmy.com website told me it would likely come down to if it hurt when I performed strenuous tasks. I'm doing my best to find out. I'm going to try to get my parents to sign off on a physical by an army doctor in a few months when I'm full strength.
