DEP 68W
Thank you for having me as a guest on your forums. I hope to use these forums frequently and to become a fellow respected member of the community.
I'm a young adult male, married happily for nearly five years, expecting a daughter in July, and due to sign up this week at MEPS as a 68W (Health Care Specialist) in the United States Army.
I'm passionate about philosophy, hiking, and spending time with the people I love. I don't see any purpose to life if we don't spend our time making ourselves better people in order to serve our families and indeed the entire world.
I'm a very open-minded individual who gets along with people easily. There are few things I cannot tolerate: bigotry, injustice, oppression... I try to live my life to the highest standards, learning from my mistakes and pushing forward at all times.
I hope to be attached to an infantry unit in Afghanistan because if someone is in danger I want to be there to assist in every way I can. I have a strong sense of duty and pride which I hope to fulfill by following the long-standing traditions of the U.S.Army. I'm not under any delusions, I just want to be an expert in my field in order to save lives, and to help end oppression in any way I can.
Thank you once again, I hope this introduction is sufficient and not too long-winded either.
