Ok, to get an advanced rank in the air national guard upon enlistment, it says you need 20 semester hours or 30 quarter hours... what does this mean?

Lets say I have 18 college credits, how many semester hours is that?

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A fire broke out at an ammunition dump at a U.S. base in southern Baghdad on Tuesday night, setting off a series of explosions from detonating tank and artillery shells that shook buildings miles away. The U.S. military said there were no immediate reports of casualties.

It was not clear whether the ammunition holding area at Forward Operating Base Falcon was hit by an attack. The cause of the fire was not immediately known, said Lt. Col. Christopher C. Garver, a military spokesman.

Explosions from detonating tank and artillery ordnance and small-arms ammunition stored at the site went off for hours after the fire erupted.

will it be considered overstepping his authority? Will the Supreme Court step in? Better answer with thought cause the U.S.S. Eisenhower (Aircraft Carrier) just left port for the Persian Gulf and it's orders were to deploy--this isn't no training missioin my friends!!

I guess we should just stay over here in America and wait for the next attack. Maybe we should write them peace letters and hope for the best.

I recently learned that the killer of SW2 Robert stethem was recently released in germany's prison when he was serving out a lifetime sentance. The german officials were suppose to notify us of his parole date and they failed to do so, and we were not able to indict him to U.S. courts. SW2 Robert Stethem was gunned down when a plane was hijacked in 1985 because he would not dishonor his country. He was the first enlisted to have a ship named after him and I am proud to have served on it.

I am in the military and my first enlistment is up. It has been a goal of mine go get a college degree since in joined. The military offers to pay for your college while you are in, but there is a catch. You can take classes only when you not busy. Like if you are about to go on deployment don't bother singing up for a class unless it is an on-line class (not to knock on-line classes but they are just not for me). If I stay in the military and try to finish my degree I can probably finish it in about 4 or 5 years. (That’s only 2 yrs of college because I have 2 yrs complete)

I love the fact that the father-son tandem are the only U.S. Presidents to send the military to decimate the birthplace of so-called civilization. The current Bush ought to forcibly take the Promised Land and drive the Jews to to sea. George Patton would have done that for him because of his love for God, regardless of the cost. I think the U.S. ought oust every Jew and Muslim and take the entire region. Forget about oil. Just take those Dead Sea Scrolls and find out what they really mean. They are in the hands of Jew interpreters. You want us to think that Jesus was a terrorist?

I thought a nuclear device was either 'all or nothing' so how is a yield of a few hundred tons possible without a very sophisticated device?

If the two fronts were unrelated, then why did the U.S. go to war with Germany too at the same time?

I just found out i can't join the army because i am taking stratera for ADD. I can function perfectly fine without it I'm not sure that I even have ADD. Just because I followed a counselors stupid advice to start taking ADD medicine a month ago i can't join the army.

It's not like i'll be twiddling my thumbs while i'm getting shot at by some crazy *** jihadist with an AK47.

So let me get this straight. Someone with a learning disability or depression can join the army but i can't now because less than a month ago i had my doctor write me a prescription for stratera??

Everybody has ADD to some degree. You treat us(ADD people) like we have the worst "mental disorder" ever.

I am a 27 female that is sick of struggling through school to get my degree. I am in a place I hate to live (Las Vegas) and keep getting jobs I can't stand...only because they pay well (food server). I am interested in the army because of the challenge, discipline and the financial security it has to offer. They also have a position in Public Affairs I'm really interested in (although they can't tell me if the position is actually available or not). I am in debt with school about $60,000 and they said part of the deal would be that they would pay off my school loans(although that's not guaranteed either). They'd also pay for me to finish my education. I am having a hard time deciding what to do. My family is not supportive and I feel like I should do it, but don't want to make any more mistakes! Can anyone tell me what it is REALLY like? The recruiters may just be saying what I want to hear. Any help would be greatly appreciated! (Especially from those currently in the service) ;)

Those of you that did is proof that your hatred for the country and the people who still fight for your freedom to spew your vomit dont deserve to live with dogs.This womans husband is in Iraq and I cant believe the hatred I see.Many of you owe her and her husband an apology if you are any type of human being.Its one thing not to support the war or the President to to say the things you did and you know who you are.

United Nations Really does what? I really mean, If the United Nations Tells a third World Country to do something and they Dont, They Get someone to attack them. EX. ( Iraq ) but If they told the us to do something, they dont have to listen to them. So really, Do they Have any General Command in the world?
