Now some of us have been round the block a few times, but with passing of the years some of our information may be jut a little jaded, does this disqualify us as well.

We are mainly looking for correct responses to questions that will involve a life alterning decision.

Sharing advice and perspectives on your service and service in general is certainly welcome. You have been there and while much has changed since you have been in, you are familar with the life of a soldier.

What we do not want are people with no military experience handing out service specific advice or answering service specific questions.

That is fine for other forums, not this one. Since this pertains to military service questions, only those with the knowledge and experience are allowed to answer.

If your car was broken, and you needed advice on how to repair it...would you want someone that's simply read about car repair once or twice or someone that has repaired them for a living to help you?

Most of the time the person asking the question has googled it too and wants some real information from people who know what they are talking about. After reading what you wrote here, I will not take anything that you say seriously because this proves that you cannot distinguish something you read somewhere by someone you don't know from the truth.

How'd you miss this thread? Pretty much got the basics of bootcamp covered, but she needs help with knowing what to expect at A school and with Navy life in general. You're just the squid for the job!
