^^oh man that sucks, but at least you made it. have you been to the fleet yet?
wolf, i came into the Navy when the AF rode the bikes for PRT. I was so mad about that until I came to Miami and a retired AF MSgt told me the bike was harder than running for slim people, but a breeze for the "fatboy club".

No I don't finish with school till the end of April or early May. It's fine with me I knew they wouldn't advance me any ways. It just means P&A points for me. I should be taking it again here in March so hopefully I will get it then.

Wow i didn't know they did it like that. Is it different if you're a fleet returnee? We had an IS3 striker that picked up IS2 while in A school, so I'm trying to understand it I guess.

Just another bit of advice volunteer for a leadership position if they offer it for your A school class (class leader, assistant class leader). You will more than likely have to put up with high school bs but at least you will be in a position to do something about it and it will help you to get promoted quicker.

That said though, I wouldn't be surprised if they already made him class leader since he's coming in as an e-4

I signed up for the Army as well and I leave for Ft. Benning on Jan. 14.
Can't wait to get started. I put in my packet for an officer, though. I just have to do good to get higher on the OML. I'll be going through OCS at Benning as well. So for the first 6 months, at least, Ft. Benning will be my home and escape from the Chicago cold.
I would like MI or MP.
I chose the Army because I think with the sheer size and needs of the Army, promotions and opportunities should come along more often than the smaller branches.
I got decent scores on the ASVAB and GT. Did my interview with a Major and a couple of Captains, the interview was actually easier than some of the police board interviews that I've done.
As for the Marines, they have a warrior mentality, it's a whole different culture with those guys. Nothing wrong with it, they're bad dudes. But like everything in the world, they have their share of jerks.
