Welcome, for now.

I understand that I have a lot of room to improve in order to get branched infantry. I am working on it every day so that I can get branched infantry, and so that maybe one day I can go to Ranger School.

Thank you,

Travis
Let me know if you have any questions. I'll do what I can to fill in the blanks.

GOOD JOB!

The only thing I'd tell you is that you need to critique yourself on your form. Ensure that for your pushups, your upper arms and back form a straight line when you go down (breaking the plane, or going so far down that your back is lower than your upper arms.)

Also, on your situps, ensure that your upper torso is up high enough that it's perpendicular with the ground.

Your recruiter might be a 'nice' guy and could be giving you the benefit of the doubt. That may not be the case after you enter the Army and find that your form wasn't as good as the recruiter was telling you.
