He wants to do what I did- Army Infantry, with a little airborne thrown in- adrenaline junkie stuff.
He was actually born at Ft Benning GA-home of the Infantry and home of the Airborne. The military was great for me I can only hope it's as good for him.

The thing is the little turd scored so high on the ASAVB/AFQT or whatever they call it now, he could have done anything. But no, he wants to be a Grunt, a dirty grunt like his old man. :lol2:

Tough times, we'll see. Anyway we have plans to ride today :roost:

:knary:

being a grunt is bad but it could have been worse!

The military is a great place for a young man to grow up. Lots of us here have done that.
