it actually amazes me that people would voluntarily join the army when they don't have to, i just don't understand why....i think it's some sort of defect in their character....the need for discipline and order....
At the base where I am currently stationed, the food is excellent, we had lobster tail 2 days ago, and yesterday we had steak and baked potatoes, its alot better than you think, before I joined, I was pretty skeptical about the people, but that was only in boot camp, outside of boot, everyone is really cool. I am also getting all of my school paid for, I am about to receive my BS in Nuclear Technology, for free. I was also given 36k by the montgomery GI Bill for the education of my (future) dependants. But the getting up at 5 sucks. Especially 3 days a week i get up at 430 to run 2 miles, i hate that shiit. Theres alot of things i hate, such as i had to cut my hair that i had grown for so long.
