Finished Basic Training.
Well guys, i posted awhile back that i decided to join the Army as an Infantryman and i did. It has been a long and hard 13 weeks but i did it! I graduated this past Friday and now im in Airborne hold over. Im just waiting for my spot to open and i will head over to Airborne. Im really excited and cant wait for this exciting road ahead.
