So much to learn...

[ZAK333]

My name is Zak, I am not enlisted or part of the Army in any way shape or form. I am deeply interested in becoming a part of our proud Nations Army. I am a high school student currently enrolled in Air Force J.R.O.T.C. I have no plans to join the Air Force, this is simply the only J.R.O.T.C program available to me. I am an athlete. I love to compete and I love to win, with these traits comes willpower and determination. Others may call me stubborn.
I am here because I would like any help a person could get on planning a future around the military. I trust I have come to the right place and hope I can absorb all the knowledge that I am sure to encounter.

Howdy.

What is that avatar?

Welcome aboard.

[ZAK333]

Thanks guys, the avatar is the rank for Cadet Master Sergeant in Air Force J.R.O.T.C.

zak, at your stage the best thing for you to do is concentrate on school and stay in shape. Next year (I assume you're a junior) you can start figuring out the specifics regarding the enlistment process. For now just research the areas that interest you in the military - there are plenty of folks who can guide you to what you want, including recruiters who won't bullshit you.

[ZAK333]

Thanks a lot Cal, if anyone else has suggestions please feel free to PM me or post them here. I would love to hear them.

I have one question...




Are you a Legomaniac?

[ZAK333]

No sir, I don't see where you are coming from?

[CAL]

No sir, I don't see where you are coming from?

That's the correct answer.

[ZAK333]

What is a legomaniac?

[RedFalcon]

What is a legomaniac?

It's a frame of mind. A true warrior personality. Your Drill Sergeants will all be legomaniacs. They will be impressed with your knowledge and accept you as one of their own if you call them that...

[CAL]

Quit fucking with the kid - he's really trying.

[ZAK333]

I have a feeling that if I call any drill sergeant a legomaniac, I will be running until i vomit and then will be doing push ups in the pile of vomit...
