Well, your secrecy aside, I can't think of a better place for an SSBN to be stationed ... except for maybe the sea of Japan. But since you're out of norfolk, I would guesstimate the friendly seas of the baltic or the Mediterranean to be your new home.

Orbax I only have a short bit of advice for you. If you're trying out to be in our Rangers. Don't injure yourself in training..

Thats it

Just don't get injured..

Most of the guys I know who wash out are injured from stupid mistakes during week 2

Sleep deprivation and whatnot..

Other than that just use your noggin and know how to work in teams. If you're not a team player then go do something else and stay out of the Army.

Its not easy in the slightest, and just because a person is strong doesn't mean shit.

IMO you should go 11B first and do two years with your unit until you've got a good idea on how things work in the Army. Then if you think you like it request Ranger School.

If you do that make sure you get Airborne in your contract so you don't have that against you when putting in your 4187 for Ranger School.

Saying you want to be a Ranger and then actually going through it and making it are two different things. Just don't talk shit and never do it saying "I could have made it.." Thats extremely lame and the soldiers around me that say that I want to break their legs.

Oh, and don't expect awesome jobs right after graduation..

Aye, it will be a career move, and there may be other routes to establish. Military is just one of those things where, as Buddha said "be the change you wish to see in the world", I would want some solid folk in there and so far reports are im solid

But, like I said, if I went in and found something better suited for my capacities I have no real reason to go in. Just want to be excellent at the things I do.

I thought that was Gandhi...?

It's one of my favorite quotes too.

Anyways good luck orbinox.
