ahh yes, thats the aa.com spirit! happy:

congrats, did you get bragg/airborne school in your contract? If not, i wouldnt count on eiter one. Also, did you enlist with RIP option? If so you would have to go to Korea your first tour (hardship tour) I also know its hard to get to Italy, but they have talked about adding a third Battalion. Congrats-i glad you didnt decide to join the...marines

as it reads in my contract, it is unassigned aiborne. When I contracted, I wanted Rangers, however the only slots available to me at the time were for cook (yeah, fuck that) and field artillery. so I went for AB infantry instead. My recruiter (definitely not the typical stereotyped car sales type) a fellow infantryman no BS guy who served with the 10th Mtn, told me more than likely if I let the course ride for itself, and made sure things were straightened out, I will end up at Bragg. Actually, 2 guys who graduated a year ahead of me are at Vicenza with the 173rd. Hell I'd be happy with anywhere really. Even if I get assigned to Korea, or was in the 82nd, I'd still end up deployed over there anyway since they are a QRF. I've never heard of the RIP option. the only RIP I know of is the Ranger Indoctrination Program. and that doesn't sound right. hmm...

Cool thats great man i'm not old egnof to get in the army or anything but i want to fight on the ground i would love it. Good luck Bravo

Well, if you're smart, definitely go Army. biggrin:

You cannot respawn in battle.

What the hell is with you in this thread? hake: Good luck bravo pop me a few skinnies!

i know a guy in the 101st airborne, mike ferussi (dono if last name is spelled right) he has the medal of honor, medal of valor and he is going to school to be the next rank up from a 1st sgt. he lives in georgia.

he got the medal of honor for rescuing some people in a plane that went down in afghanistan or something.

good luck at basic.

yeah-good choice.
RIP does + ranger indoctrination program, and from what i understand it is ONE way you can become a ranger-RIP, Korea, Ranger School-then cross your fingers. Also, since you have signed up for ABN, either way you will most likely end up Light Inf. Maybe even the 10th Mtn-which deploys every six months somewhere. Also, maybe you will get Italy, that would be awesome. Are you just enlisting or going green to gold or anything? just curious

if i were you id wanna be as far away from korea as possable.

[quote="Sargent_Scrotum":3d391]if i were you id wanna be as far away from korea as possable.[/quote:3d391]

then he couldnt get ranger (if thats what he wants)

Good luck there dude, and if u could.. u can also post some pictures of u in ur uniform this year too, that'll be awesome cool:

definitely. and Negative, 10th Mountain is Air Assault (choppers) not airborne. I will eventually go to Air Assault School though, only 10 days long. that way, I will be what is called "stacked". (AB badge, Air Assault badge, and CIB/EIB hopefully by next spring)

Oh yeah forgot to mention, fuck Green to Gold. Officers suck cock. Enlisting is the only way to go!
