Greetings. I recently had what you could call an epiphany of sorts. I just turned 20, am 12 credits shy of my associates degree, and had a nice, cush, decent-paying civilian job that required very little actual 'work'.

And I HATED it. I wasn't made to drive a desk. So I quit my job and enlisted as a 68W (Airborne). (Call it a mid-life crisis if you will, though I do plan on living past 40...)

I plan on attending the RIP after jump school, and applying for the SFAS as soon as I am eligible. I have done a great deal of lurking around this site since then, and learned a great deal. I plan to continue doing so, and I will try to keep my mouth shut and watch the boards unless I have a legitimately relevant question.

Thank you all for the knowledge that you impart here! I particularly enjoy the fact that people who don't follow the standards that you set for the site (read before posting, don't be dumb etc.) are punished for their indiscretions; if only more things in the world were like that! I knew my 5th grade teacher was full of it when she told me there's no such thing as a stupid question.
