[QUOTE="DTate98, post: 69162088, member: 383589"] Hi guys! For most of my younger years, I was the child of two proud soldiers. My dad was a Lieutenant, my mom, a Specialist. After they retired, I hoped to never run into the military again, because of a lot of things I can't really remember. Since then, I've never gotten away from the military. It's everywhere. Now I miss being part of that community. Now 17 and nearing graduation, I'm seriously considering joining the military. I can't stop thinking of the idea of having a house, food, and utilities, while doing what I love and without worry of losing any of those things (Well, unless I do something stupid or get injured and get discharged). My mom has been encouraging me to go into service for a while now, and my dad just found out and he fully supports my decision. Basically, I will be working as a Cyber Awareness guy possibly working out of Norad, the mountain base. Apparently, there's a 20,000 signing bonus and an instant promotion. My dad said if I was working in Norad, I wouldn't be in barracks, but an actual house. That's huge for me, because I've looked at barracks and they don't look all that great. Hopefully, I can actually stick to this plan, because most of my post-graduation plans haven't stuck for more than a year. I'm really skinny, so I'll be preparing physically with protein shakes (reccomended by my parents) along with lots of stretching and gradual workouts. This will supposedly be a life-altering event for me. I just hope the demands aren't more than I can handle. [/QUOTE]
