Good Afternoon Gentlemen/Ladies,
My name is Jr I just want to say it's a honor to be on the same Forum as men of your caliber. I always wanted to join the military as a child, joined the Marine Corps right after High School, and went to Okinawa (fun times). I enjoyed my time in The Corps I learned much more than I thought I would & have made friends and life long brothers. I've always had an interest in Special Forces, heck I even called an Army Recruiter while I was stationed in Oki. All seemed as though it would transition well, at least until the economic crunch hit. The next thing I knew the Army was no longer doing voluntary rank reductions & the proverbial **** rolled down hill on my plans as more changes came down the pipeline
. All is not lost as I found, due to my lack of holding a qualified MOS, the singular option available to me is 18X
. I've read Get Selected! and I've always applied the rocking chair theory to most aspects of my life, I'd rather of tried and failed miserable than to look back and say I wish I did. So now I’m hoping to be given the opportunity to prove myself worthy of those that have done and continue to do what I only dream of.
