...then it's a summer of training before I enlist! Hopefully this book will help me in my journey.
Make sure the girls strolling by in their bikinis can see the cover while you're reading - that might be of help there, too. ;)

actually now that you mention my apartment (it's a college apartment complex) is right next to the pool and the girlys are starting to come out in droves... but these are NOT the types of girls who are impressed by reading... :lifter

Thanks for the advice to pick up this book! :D

I ordered this book about a month ago and when it arrived in the mail I read it cover to cover in one sitting. Since then I have probably read it through another two or three times. What a powerful tool for us civilians looking at 18x, thanks a lot!

I tried to post a review on Amazon, but it will publish my name if I do so. Any computer/internet wizzes out there know how to keep that from showing up, no need to connect my name with SF. (Better safe than sorry)
thanks,

Great book, and fantastic information. Without sounding like too much of a fanboy, I just wanted to say "thanks for the awesome resource, Warrior Mentor".

The foot care section was a big eye opener, and the training schedule really whooped my butt into shape. I'm only a few points off of a 300 AFPT score (and 3 months before I even go to Basic), got nice tough feet, and a tremendous amount of self confidence that I CAN/MUST do this and I know I have you and your Co-Author to thank for all of it.

Best Regards,
Terrapin

Just purchased a copy of this book a couple minutes ago. Can't wait for it to arrive, so I can read this from cover-to-cover.

Thanks for this great resources, and I appreciate all you all have done for us hopefuls.

Much of what I remember of operations in Group was wind, rain, snow, cold, scalding heat, and pitch dark, isthey are all just a paragraph in an op order. Your best work will be done in these conditions and in places no one else would go, and you'll be tired and hurting but that will not stop you. SF thrives where others just survive. Blitz

Thank you for taking the time to post these words. Its men like you sharing thoughts like these that inspire me more than anything else lately. Sometimes it feels like "Groundhog Day" over here; every day seems like the last ("Hey. it's Sunday. Did yall know it's Sunday?).
