Well I have joined the Texas National Guard. I live in San Antonio TX. I am 25 and just got married. I have always wanted to join the military. I feel every American should do a term in the US military, but have been trying to get my Bachelors before I joined. I am about 4 semesters away from that goal. I decided to join now because...
1. I am compelled by all the soldiers who have left their families and friends to keep me and my family safe. It makes me feel proud to be an American. I think me joining is the least I could do. I do not want to go to war, but would feel privileged to go if it means another soldier gets to come home.
2. I believe in the War on Terror.
3. I am sick of these damn anti American hippies always talking trash. The way I see it, if I join the Army maybe I won't be around so many of them.
My MOS is 19D and I leave for basic on 20050816. I am planning on trying to go to BAC or the Ranger school after AIT. I am not sure how and this is the question that brought me to this forum.
