I have been gone for large gaps of time.... This time I have a reason! So ummm yea I joined the army under much pressure from them for me to join. They looked over my short comings (gave me a top secert clereance too), and now I that I am in a stable enough post to get on the internet often I can start taking again. Still in training untill March to be a 35F (Intellegence Analyst) at sunny Ft. Huachuca (aka middle of the desert). As for why I joined, tricky business there. I was oftered chances to do alot of different things, some from colleges oftered me positions of study, some jobs offered me tech positions, but the army was the only group to offer me a chance to change the world. So now I wake up a 4 AM everyday and work out then go to classes for 12 hours. Four more months then off to probably either Korea or Germany. I should be on the forum at least every other day now. So dont forget to catch me up on everything thats happened!
Private First Class Clockwork!

35 Foxtrot, ey? Are you planning on staying enlisted or getting a degree/going to OCS and become an officer? If forgotten, I contract for the army, so you'll have to keep us posted on where you're stationed and maybe I'll get up that way. Hope you're having fun!

I plan to stay enlisted for 2 years then maybe go warrent officer/CID (criminal investigations department, hopefully for cyber crime)/Counter-intellegence/pyschological warfare. So basicly not exactly sure which direction I am heading yet, but I am somewhat liking it so far. For anyone who wants to know TRADOC (Training and Doctrination) side of the army isn't really fun. Sometimes I feel like I did a service to join the millitary during a time of war, but they treat me lower then a prisoner. Besides that its alright. No more CS for a while, I get to kick in doors with a M4 every saturday for training.

The most likely places for me to go (in order of chance): Korea, Germany, Texas, Florida, Kansas, Japan, England, Africa (for the new base they are making), and DC. So I don't know which direction I am going.
P.S. - TRADOC sucks
