Rangers,

Went to the recruiter today to turn in the rest of my packet. I am scheduled to take the ASVAB Monday morning. After that, I just have to wait for a MEPS date when my recruiter sends them my paperwork about a molar being removed when I was 16.

Rangers,

I took the ASVAB today and did very well. My overall score was a 93 and my GT was 123. I leave for MEPS Thursday, and hopefully everything goes well during the physical and have my contact Friday.

Rangers,

I just got back home from MEPS. I had as much fun as everyone else that has done it. I passed everything, although I have to go back Thursday to take the airborne physical. I had some blockage in my right ear which I need to take care of.

Kevin,
Is your ear issue a temporary thing, or will it impact your choices? What have you discussed with your recruiter in terms of your contract?

Ranger Fuego,
It is only temporary. I am going back to MEPS Thursday to take the airborne physical and sign my contract hopefully. My recruiter was unable to pull up a contract because apparently my ship date (after December 15) was too far for him to pull a contract. He did say they should be able to pull it up at MEPS though.

Rangers,
Yesterday I finally signed an 18x contract. My ship date is so far out because I graduate college in December and it was the next available ship date. I'm excited to be done with that process and move on to the next.
