I'm a military brat...but I don't want you to go over seas. It's good to see the other side of the world...props on that. But I don't want you to go.

so after pt i was talking to the recruiters and they told me that theres a huge chance that after infantry training i will be shipped off to iraq or afghanistan(is that spelled right),just wanted to let you know It is good for your service, and nothing short of that experience is the same. I served in the end of the 'Nam era, was in the jungle, etc. Just know before you go whether you intend to be a career person. The choices that you make, over there, can be hard. You will be changed. Decide to be at home within yourself, after that, because you can never go back to being who you are now. You represent us, so go with God.
