Hello everybody, I am an 18 year old high school senior and have a desire to serve in the military in the near future. I have been lurking this site for a while and finally decided to join the fray. I am considering an 18x contract once I'm eligable, but I have some unanswered questions I am hoping to clear up.
 
Welcome to SS. There's a lot that is in the threads here. I'm pretty sure the answers you are looking for can be found if you spend some time reading through the threads. Best of luck in your quest.
 
I am writing this because I think it warrants a re-introduction of sorts.

Almost a year ago I joined this site with hopes to get an 18x contract. However, over this time I have learned a bit about myself and done some research and read a few books pertinent to my situation in life. I have been through the bulk of the enlistment process and am now in the DEP with an 11x option 40 contract. This is completely due to me examining myself and what I wanted. I also have had some very helpful mentors in my life who didn't try to steer me but instead, helped me think for myself. I am simply re-introducing myself so that there is no confusion as to my situation/goals.

I will do my best to keep everyone posted. I assume the best way to do that would be through the Mentor Section so I I'll have to get on that.

Well done... you seem to have matured a LOT in the past year. Drive on, and join the Ranger Mentor Program. OH, YEAH... DO PT!!! :thumbsup: ;-):rolleyes:
