Hello everyone,

My name is William and I am a 22 year old Junior studying Secondary Education with concentrations in English, Biology, and History. I have been enlisted for over three and a half years now with the Army Reserves (decided to serve because it has been a family tradition, and I also felt that serving my country is an obligation men should want to do).

I have been lurking this website for about a year, constantly reading and taking in any information I could and apply it to the best of my ability. Two weeks ago I contacted a SF Recruiter in the National Guard, and due to my commitment and eagerness to go and train with their unit, we have been quickly filling out the required paperwork to get me released from the Reserves and into their Guard unit.

The plan is to keep me on the support side for a while to get my feet wet and see how the unit works, also to build rapport with everyone there. I hope to attend Selection within a year if possible. Thank you to the QP's and other members of this website with the plethora of information provided, it has been extremely valuable and insightful for me to read and reflect on.
