Re: Somali hijackers attack an American ship
Ah my dear Rangers! You must remember the U.S. has to be civilized. What a load of crap! Let's let a bunch of no account pirates hold off the U. S. Navy in a life boat! OMG. Unbelievable.

Re: Quick question
ok, yeah, I'm just a mom so terribly uninformed for your purposes. My question is doesn't your high school give the asvab test? My son took his in school. My second question is, as a junior, are you still 17? That could explain why he wants to take you twice because you can't enlist at 17 without yo...

Re: NEED ADVICE FROM ANY PARENTS HERE
I am so sorry for the situation you find yourself in. The hardest part of parenting is knowing at some point we have to let go. I'm still struggling with that. Your daughter is of age legally. You've given her all the tools, knowledge and foundation you could give her. Time to let go and let God tak...

Re: Intro
Just keep talking to your parents. My son had us sign so he could enlist at 17. I have to say my initial hope was that he'd go to college. But he displayed a desire and knowledge of the military that could not be denied and made it quite clear if we didn't sign, he would just do it when he was 18 an...

Re: Graduated Airborne
Congratulations! Just had to let you know that we are very proud of you and that we thank you for your service. Rip hold is a chance to see how bad you want it. Never quit, never quit, never quit. My son told us he'd never forgive himself if he didn't stick with it. When you think you can't keep goi...

Re: Army: Negligence caused soldier's electrocution
There was an article about the poor quality of electrical wiring in Iraq in a magazine my dad gets recently. I just can't recall right now if it was the Electrical workers union magazine or the American Legion magazine. The gist of it was that there really were no codes at all and the people doing t...

Re: shipping out tomorrow
Happy New Year Soldier! My son just graduated RIP before Exodus. I can't claim to know what he went through. But I can tell you - hang tough, the fun is just beginning. Never quit, never quit, never quit. And encourage your parents to attend the graduation if at all possible.
