My 20 YO son leaves for Army Infantry this Sunday. When he said he was going I think that I used the term "canon fodder" in a cheeky response, but he's been bent on it for many years and I salute his desire to serve. I guess I'll be saying "GO ARMY!" soon.

I just got done talking to an Army recruiter and I told him id join. I didn't sign any papers or anything but I have several waivers to get to. Did I just make a great decision? A fucking awful one? Tell me about your experiences.

I read it as "bisexual gal"

Anyway as far as the Army you made a great choice, one of the best things I've ever done.

You should check out the other services just to shop around.

If you like hot tubs and AC Air Force all the way . . .

Know how I know you won't hack?

Because you already have second thoughts and you haven't even signed anything. That's also how I know the Marines are gonna tell you to get fucked.

Plus waivers aren't as easy to get as they were 8 years ago.

Just go back to the basement and tell people on the internet how you almost joined after the war was over.

Well now I have to join ( if I can) just to prove this fuck head wrong.
