I would say I am at that point right now. Trying to get in better shape and doing my research. And I am definitely driving myself nuts with this lately (stupid fear of the unknown
).
Thanks for all the replies guys. I stopped in at the recruiter the other day and talked casually. He had guys that were 26 and 28 that have joined up recently, so I didn't feel so bad (I am not that old yet). I really should go for it, but time will tell.
And what is 11-Xray? Can you explain this any better? What does the AB stand for in AB Infantry? Unassigned Ranger? Do you go to Ranger school for this? I did notice at the recuiter one of the pictures on the wall a guy was listed as 11X, but I forgot to ask about it. So if I am not mistaken, 'normal' infanty is 11B, so what is the difference here?
Not to get ahead of myself, but I have another question. Thinking into the possible future, I found myself pondering where to be stationed. What are the pros and cons to over-seas service? I know a guy stationed in Korea who loves it. I have a friend stationed in Germany who likes it there too. I think it would make it a better experience to live in say, Italy. On the other hand though, I bet I would really miss just being in the US.
Thanks again.
