[quote="Cpt. Zapotoski":e8a22]I'll be on the same path Eames, but I'm doing it the RIGHT way

I'm going enlisted first, and then getting my degree and going officer so I can get both views of how the system works. You get more expierance and respect that way.
There isn't any right way of doing it but I was told that if you were an enlisted man before you became an officer then you had an idea of what was going on.[/quote:e8a22]
Trust me...your "knob" year (thats your first year for you non-hackers) is way tuffer then parris island, and almost any other aspect of enlisted life. Going through a military schools 4th class system trains you to be an officer, by being a follower first, then a leader.
