Outstanding, you're picking up the rules of the road pretty quick.
Ability to adapt is important.
We aren't laying out the chickenshit to get off, this is just agentle prep for what you have coming. That other thread I directed you to, you see how he reactied "aw, you meanies hurt my feelings; I'll show you & go play elsewhere".
You might make it to RIP, he won't make it through basic training.
Since it looks as if you don't need us to tell you much of anything, my only advice is to suggest that once you get moving to enlist, that you immediately cease fighting & sparring.
You get injured anywhere along the pipeline that requires that you lose as little as a day to recover, you can lose your option 40. Period.
Do the workouts you need to do, but dont risk the sorts of injuries fighting causes. Learn that swimming, aside from the confidence it brings, it can save your life. Lots of members here have stepped into holes while wading in swamps, have had those cool rubber rafts go over, found the drop zone to be wet & cold instead of hard....
You get the picture.
I'd wish you good luck but you're getting the picture, from this point on, you'll pretty much make your own luck.
