Thanks fellas. I got promoted today to an e2. I know the pay isn't fantastic. But ill have very few bills. Only 3 days left. Kinda nervous and anxious. Anybody in SC? That's where I'm headed.

Default Boot Camp

Just a heads up..Your world is about to change. When you arrive at Boot Camp the meanest Dirty S.O.B. you most likely will ever meet will be your Drill Sargent. Advice Don't ever volunteer for anything. After Boot, life can be good, maybe. Wishing you the best of luck. And Thank you for being Brave enough to Serve your Great Nation.
