    After about 3months 16 days (April 30-August 16) of rucking, shooting, classes, field exercises and all other infantry cool shit I have completed my 11B MOS at Fort Benning in Columbus GA. I have been inactive for sometime as they barely gave us our phones so I spent little time on TW just looking around. I'm happy to be in the special group of men(and soon to be women) that stormed the beaches of Normandy and made shit happen. I can say that OSUT training was tough at times, the weather was stupid hot and the things that went in the bays was something to laugh at now. I miss a couple of the guys I had the pleasure of meeting but we are moving on to our units to better our lives. Just wanted to let this out as people have noticed my inactivity and this is the best way.

    Congratulations! I graduated in Febuary 93'. Hopefully (as weak as this gov't wishes to make this nation) women will never be included into the group of Infantrymen.

    I couldnt do airborne because

    1)college started the very next week
    2)PT wasnt there yet.

    Im in the National guard, i went over the summer to reap educational benefits and get my time in service rolling.

    I am transferring to an Military Intelligence unit when i contract with ROTC.

    No idea which unit i'll be in exactly.

    I say if you want to do military-part time and still lead a civilian lifestyle NG is the place to be.

    If you are pursing higher education, they can help ya with that too!

    We don't have a dedicated military intelligence unit in the state. Just usually one officer per unit and enlisted soldiers.
