Jason - Basic Ft. Sill Feb. 21 - 91W

Post by DirtyBlackSocks »

As the title says my name's Jason , I'm shipping to Ft. Sill for my basic February 21st and after that off to Ft. Sam Houston for training under 91W.

I'm 23 years old without much education, it's not somthing I'm proud of. I joined the Army for a lot of reasons but mainly to sum it up I was looking for a challenge and discipline in my life both physically and mentally. Being able to work around people trained to be as efficient as myself is an exciting prospect. It will be nice to get back into school as well and the benefits are definately a perk.

While I have no option for ranger in my contract for various reasons it's somthing I've considered very seriously for a while now. I waited 3 years to join the Army intentionally to be sure it's somthing I felt I would be able to accomplish and stick with.

I am going airborne and air assault after my AIT (or doing my best to secure a slot for air assault), hopefully I have a firm decision of where I'd like to go with ranger school from there.

Any advice or recommendations are appreciated, I'm not going to make this too long winded, so if you'd like to know more about me get in touch with me before I ship as I doubt I'll have a lot of spare time from then to browse this wonderful site.

Respectfully,
Jason

Thank you Barnett.

I'll probably catch flak for this but rather then make a long list, here's a decent way at getting to know who I am:
