A Soldier's Life

It was a long and bloody war,
but I knew what we were striving for.
Ready to pay the cost, I put on my gear,
and down to the Flanders Fields, I walked in fear.
Leaving my family behind caused me tremendous pain,
and not being with them made me nearly go insane.
The sound of gun shots ringing in my ears,
day and night, that's all I hear.
But I knew I had to continue the fight,
so, I gave it all my strength and might.
Weak and exhausted, I could barely cope,
but standing for my country gave me great hope.
Down in the trenches we stealthily hid,
fearing for our lives, as we always did.
Dealing with diseases that made our bodies rot,
the agony of war will never be forgot.
Watching my fellow comrades, as the days went by,
so many wounded, so many died.
The war was nearly over, the time becoming near,
to see the ones I loved and those who were so dear.
My heart was filled with sadness for the lives that were lost,
knowing they loved their country and truly paid the cost.
But I was a soldier ready to move ahead,
willing to face the future no matter where it lead.

I go every single morning, within the first 10 minutes of waking up, and once or twice more throughout the day.... Is taking 2-3 dumps every single day a sign that I have a health problem? Is this a big problem if I want to attend West Point? Is it a problem for the life of a cadet?

My ex-son-in-law, had enlisted in the Army. My daughter was already
pregnant, by someone else. He allowed the baby to have / carry
his last name.
The family (soldier) got recorded, as Being Indebted to the Army,
and he was ''forced to be discharged"...(all particulars unknown to
me right now)..but he Abandoned the wife...to my house (with the
baby less than 20 months old), and he ''got a younger girl (over
age 18 / or about that age), and got her pregnant, within 8 weeks,
of abandoned his family...Before any Divorce, Before Discharge
from the Military Service...
Could this Be Considered Misconduct by a Military Enlisted Person?
Isn't there some type of laws of Military Service, which assist in
this sort of action, to Prevent Abandonment / Abuse / Neglect of
a Spouse / Family?
Their new baby born, before he divorced my daughter.
To Me, This doesn't say much for the Enlisted Persons Conduct
Code of Ethics...but Not Every Soldier is Like This, I would hope
not anyway.

I am thinking about joining the navy. Currently im overweight and have bad body image issues. How are people like me treated by other recruits or personnel? Is it group showers? What can I expect?

I want to do this to better myself and this constant fear holds me back. I graduated college already and i want to go into photo journalism. Do you have any say in where you are stationed?

I guess im just really nervous and looking for some people who have been through it.

My fiance is in the navy, he's almost finished BT, and his A+school will be a year long. I was told that if he does well in it then he will be able to choose shore duty or ship duty. Is that true? I want only a military person to answer this, or a military spouse. PLEASE...

OK, so my fiance' is in the navy. He's graduating from boot camp in a couple of weeks. He'll be home for christmas, but not very long. We want to get married next summer while he's in a-school, which will last a year. Will he be able to take leave during it? We would only need about a week and a half.

Why is it that other countries in these modern times have been able to avoid wars while we still havent? Consider all we've lost & are still losing with these actions. What do we "ordinary citizens" really have to gain by waging war on other countries? Please don't insult my intelligence by giving me nonsensical cookie cutter-Bush-type answers like; "these terrorists attacked us first" (for no reason?), or "they hate us for our freedom & we must protect it" or "they're jelaous of us", etc. I don't buy it & I think we all know better by now. Tell me something that makes some sense & please keep in mind that the Iraqis didn't attack us & no WMD's were ever found.
Please keep it civil & refrain from insults. If you can't answer in a calm, rational manner, then don't answer at all.

I'm thinking about the Navy reserves. My recruiters told me that I am not obligated to pay my bills for the 8 weeks, I'm in boot camp as my creditors are required by law not to require me to pay while I'm in boot camp. So, I call my credit union and Wells Fargo, and they tell me that I am required to pay my bills while in boot camp. Well, my #1 fear is being lied to, and my credit score being ruined. After that, I didn't join the service as I thought I was lied to. You can send me to a foreign country, and put me in harms way. However, why do I want to join the service if the most simple question, I couldn't get a straight answer with.

The VA recognizes the expertise of the trained service oficers from the VFW, American legion, and the VVA.
Individuals who endeavor this on their own, usually don't know about all of the forms they need to get a claim through.

What do you think?

I've heard speculation of them switching the pattern of the uniform from the ACU Digital pattern to the Multicam pattern?

What do you think? Will they? Should they?

The army gives you this huge signing bonus when you join, but what about the air force? I can see different bonuses for enlisted people, but what about if you want to be an officer? They help pay for your education, is that it?
