My Youngest Son Just Swore into the Military Today. He started the initial process in February. Many hoops he has had to jump through since then. There was a wait no doubt. Army National Guard going in as an Officer. Military Intelligence. There is now a 180 Day wait while his Federal Background Investigation gets completed. Supposed to report in May at Ft. Benning, GA. Recruiter told him he is most likely going to Africa. It has been a very long process. I'm very proud of him.

Well i salute him for going in especially being an officer . Why will he be going to Africa tho ? I though national guard didn’t go anywhere unless an emergency call ? Maybe special training for something in Africa ?? I went in the regular army in Feb 72’ , my birthday . Best time of yr to go in cause less heat makes training easier!

My son told me he needs to get in a couple deployments and he wants to get them out of the way while he is young and single. He is going to volunteer to be deployed and the recruiter told him he is most likely going to Africa because that is the next front on the war against terrorist.
I'm betting he has a good two years of training in front of him for what he is going to be doing.
That is what he relayed to me.

Thanks for his service! Military always has my appreciation!
I would rather die finding out there was no God than die finding out there is.

Please tell him thanks for his service. Ft. Benning is cool. My daughter had the honor of going there several years for a week long precision rifle camp at the Army Marksmanship Unit.

Makes him my brother....... Vietnam Vet. Cann't have enough brothers. My heart is with him. He will not be the same, he will be better.
Life is one big playground. Be sure to ride all the rides before it closes.
