TheLardtoast I’ve been working at weight loss since January 2018, many ups and downs. It started with a simple workout regime of run 1 mile then total body circuit then another 1 mile run to finish the workout. I’ve since transitioned into marathon running and eating sugar free. Drop the sugar and run is my best advice

My advice when you join the military: Document every single injury that you suffered while in service. Physical injury, mental health, psychological stress etc.etc. You have to go to your medical department or sick bay and have them documented in your service medical record. This will help you with your VA disability claim once you get out. Good luck!

Suck it up and drive on might sound great and edgy, but after it all, you still have to decompress.

I owe it to the ones before me, and I’m gonna enlist straight outta high school. Always been a thought in the back of my mind whenever I wasn’t thinking of it but I’m dead set on going through with it.

Shipping in a month to benning, love the advices

Due to COVID, as of last week they may have you take the ASVAB at home. Then when they take you to MEPS, they have you take the short version that has fairly accurate results to ensure that you weren’t cheating when you took it at home. That’s what Army is having me do so others may be the same.

31b did out. Almost 6 months with same d.s . Loved it still in many deployment you can go on .

Thank ya sir, this helped!

I had to get waiver for my shoulder from surgery and it took like 2-3 months to hear back from the recruiters. When I came back for hometown recruiting my recruiter said “he still couldn’t believe I got in” he acted like most of time they don’t get in so I guess I got lucky but who knows

For anyone who is curious about the current timeline due to COVID; the whole process took longer than usual. I met with my recruiter for the first time in February, swore in in May, and now I’m going to be shipping out to Fort Leonard Wood August 17th as a 91D (generator rapairer) Side note: a lot is subject to change in your case. A lot will depend on how quickly you fill out your paperwork, the current situation at MEPS (might depend on where you live), and maybe some other things.

I swore into the Indiana Army National Guard as a 35F Intelligence Analyst! Going to Fort Jackson on July 5th of 2021 so I have awhile till that at least.

I've started the process to joining the Army, but have to wait until Tuesday to get screened for ASTHMA from a civilian doctor (Recommended by my recruiter). If all goes well, I get to set up a time to do the CAT-ASVAB (Got a 115 GT score on practice) and then choose my MOS and then to MEPS. Hopefully I can get what I want (11X).

I ship out the 13th of July to Ft. SILL. It's a long process, but it's worth it! I've been scared of MEPS and just sitting and waiting for the right time, but there IS NO RIGHT TIME! My process was a lot quicker since my times are flexible, MOS was something that was good for me right now, I took the Asvab in highschool, and MOST IMPORTANTLY JUST DO WHAT YOUR TOLD IF YOU TALK BACK OR DO SOMETHING OUT OF LINE YOU MAY BE DELAYED OR DISQUALIFIED PERMANENTLY OR TEMPORARY. Hope this helps someone, on the brightside it's like uh um field trip...

“11B” that’s what I thought

Currently quarantined at Kelley Hill at Fort Benning Georgia, the army is not handling the covid 19 the way they need to. My advice is to either push your shipment date back, or refuse to go until this whole ordeal is over. We were quarantined at reception for 2 weeks, processed on the third week, got through 6 days of basic, and our company ignored social distancing standards and mask wearing, and within 48 hours of our first case 142 people tested positive. (We tested a week before we went here at reception and had no positive cases). This is not a good time to leave.

I was told by my recruiter that if I pass al my training and enroll into a military academy (such as valley forge military academy), once I graduate I would get all my college paid for

I’m 14 and I’ve got good grades and I’m athletic but I’ve been struggling with determining between agriculture or engineering. It’s difficult because I feel like I need to serve and I want to do something interesting and make some brothers

Congrats!!!

I had to lose 23 lbs (took me 3 to 4 months) and scored a 52 on the asvab. Now im waiting on a behavioral health evaluation in order to go to the next step. Im so nervous about MEPS, I don't even know what jobs I qualify for.

Girl I’m trying to join too I also gotta lose weight for the army it’s just hard

I have very strongly advise to join for the positives.

Got back home from Leonardwood after being chapter'd out. Spent 5 weeks in Reception with an additional 3 weeks at RHU. Absolute hell.

DisciplineIsKey MEPS was fun for me. When I went for the Air Force, the people I met at the hotel were really cool and it made MEPS so much more bearable. There was like 8 of us all in a Snapchat group chat together so like any time I walked to a different area, there was always at least one of them.

My son goes to Fort Jackson in 11 days!

My MOS was 19J20 Armor. It took 2 1/2 years to become Sgt. E5. Took the board for E6 and they made me a Tank Commander but lost the paperwork for my rocker. I didn't reinlist then.

I watched your videos for months while I was in the process and your spot on about everything in your videos man thank you! Shipping to ft Jackson August 19. 91b

I took me 12 years lol... DQ’d 3 times finally enlisted after 18 months after my fourth and final try I ship out to infantry OSUT Jan 5,2021. I had like 8-9 waivers to be cleared. Persistence is key don’t ever give up and never retreat.

@@christophersena5512 they said the same thing to me but I never got a call just my recruiter called me and said we did it your in get your ass to MEPS to sign your contract. My advice is if they ask for 3 character reference letters give them as many as you can. I gave them 10-11 I had letters from my pastor at church, a general manager of my company, several veterans with Purple Hearts, bronze stars, my brother in law that’s been in for 24 years, and anyone that can vouch for my character now. Don’t give up and don’t ever take no for answer my 4th try I get in mostly to President Donald J. Trump for upping the recruiting numbers from 2016-2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It took me a total of 2 1/2 months. The first 3 weeks I slept hard on the decision if joining was the right thing. When I decided that it was for me I had to get a few waivers. Waited and waited 2 weeks for waivers and unfortunately a weed charge I got back the class C misdemeanor disqualified me from being an aviation turbine mechanic. That made me not want to join.But I would like to be a police officer one day so I chose the Army calv scouts. Been to meps 3 times shipping out aug 1st 19D.

Shipping to Benning August 3 cant wait

with the asvab now, or at least the way it was for me, you can take the asvab at the recruiters office and just take a confirmation test at meps
