Hello all. I joined the active compenent army in 2006 as a truck driver. I reclassed to MP in 2009 because I did not like the job as a truck driver. I started thinking I may want to try SF prior to MP school. My first orders as an MP was to FTCKY home of the 5th. This was my first sign. I put through the paperwork with the Special Operations Recruiting office and after some months I went to SFAS in June of 10. I was not ready, physically, mentally, heart or maturity level. I was 22.
I then decided to leave active duty in 2012 and joined the reserves. I quickly missed being regular army. I then tried to get a release to get back to active. Upon getting my release granted I was thinking of going back as an MP. Well everything closes, my luck (or was it).Then something opened and low and behold it was 18x. This had to be yet another sign. My calling. I have regreted how I VWd out of SFAS back in 2010 and thought about it from time to time. My release expired this past October and I have sense tried for another. I decided that I won't mess it up this time. This time around I REALLY want this more than anything. I have begun a training regimine to fix my failures and working hard to get my release so I can get my 18x contract.
I will get my contract. I will put forth well over 110%. I will get selected. I will join the ranks of the great QPs.
This site is amazing. Since I have found it I have done nothing else on the internet other than reading threads and taking notes. I want to thank all of you for your advice and help. Apologize for the length of this intro but felt the best way to get any help I need is to know all about me.
