Hi everyone! I have been reading these forums for a while now, and just decided to sign up today. I recently joined the Navy & will be shipping out on March 19th. I'll be training for a position in IS, and I'm so excited and anxious to get going! It's nice to have a place to come and share your thoughts and opinions, as well as read what others have to say. At least I know I'm not the only one who has questions about all of this stuff. Take care! Smiler

Hello everyone

Just a little about myself, I was active duty Air Force for 3 years, and now I am serving in the Army National Guard just completing my 6th year of military service. I am getting ready to deploy to Iraq in the next few months so my activity here may be kind of sparse for awhile. I was looking for a place to have some good clean conversations with fellow soldiers/marines/sailors/airman. Looks like this is a good place to call home...lol

Hallo to all. This is my first post and so yeah...

I'm enlisting next year (as I'm only 17, sighs) for the USAF and I plan to use ROTC first while I get a degree in aviation mechanics. My goal is to fly asap. Possibly go into the Academy, too. Oh yeah, go Screaming Eagles!


I went into the gas station today and
asked for five dollars worth of gas....
The clerk farted and gave me a receipt.
