I'm rejoining the army

working in a hospital?

that is the easy life in the Army..

 

Be all you can yet again be!

 

Hmmmm, have you done it before? I am assuming your a vet making such a bold statement. I am asking if you ever had to do it.

Reason being is that the medics have it almost the worst out here where I am at...

I am not a medic...

 

i'm kind of surprised no one has said this yet, but why would you want to join the army at all? give up all of your rights for a period of time to go overseas and kill or be killed for a corrupt government? i don't really get it, but good luck anyway. i know you won't change your mind because of what some kid said on the internet. just don't kill any innocent people

 

The girls in the army they say they're mighty fine, you ask for kendra wilkinson they give frankenstein, oh I don't want no more of army life, gee mom I wanna go, but they won't let me go, gee mom I wanna go hoooome .....

being a medic attached to an infantry company is a ton different then working in a hospital as a radiologist..

in the rear with the gear

 

Cadences tend to bring back negative stuff for me, so here is some that might trigger memories on why you got out.

I used to wear my baggy jeans
Now I'm wearing army greens
Used to drive a cadillac
Now I'm marching with rucksack
Used to eat at micky Ds
Now I'm eating MREs

Here we go again
Same old stuff again
Marching down the avenue
Few more years and we'll be through
I won't have to look at you
So, I'll be glad and so will you

Somewhere theres a soldier,
He's in a foreign land,
He's a US soldier,
Just doing all he can.
But don't you shed no tears,
He don't need your sympathy,
Cause he's a US soldier,
Thats all he wants to be.

Somewhere theres a mother,
She's crying in her hands,
Her sons a US soldier,
Just doing all he can.
But don't you shed no tears,
He don't need your sympathy,
Cause he's a US soldier,
Thats all that he can to be.

Somewhere theres a father,
He's proud as can be,
His son's a US soldier,
Just doing his duty.
But don't you shed him no tears,
He don't need your sympathy,
Cause he's a US soldier,
Thats all he wants to be.

One day there came a letter,
And a knock upon the door,
It said sorry to inform ya,
But your soldier is no more,
But don't you shed no tears,
He don't need your sympathy,
Cause he's a US soldier,
And thats all that he could to be.

 

True enough. But you don't stay in the rear all the time. He will deploy at some point.

There is also cav units, artillery units, etc. etc. that are no joke either. Its pretty likely that he will get the shaft in my view. Though its over all better than combat arms.

 

i meant lodog but you too hotwater, i mean hot is in your name so obviously

 

i signed up to be artillery. i had no idea what it was. i'm deployed now and i've only ever done infantry work.

when i get back home it will be cool, cause i'll be able to say i'm a combat vet. but right now i just want to go home alive and safe. war sucks, its not what you see in movies. definitely not re-enlisting.

good luck though, may the force be with you. might wanna hurry up, the army is at 160% recruiting strength and re-enlistment bonuses are all but gone.

 

Dude. no shit. I'd link you back to some of your own old posts, but it's a waste of time.

 

What unit are you with? ^^^

 

oh you don't need to do that i remember most of them.

 

1st cavalry division :banghead:

 

Looks like baghdad in the back. DSTB just got there right? You have a 12 month tour that you just started. How long have you been there?

 

nope, i'm up north. i've been here 6 months, 6 more to go, hopefully. when were you over here?

 

Ehhh, I am around

 

good luck. stay strong. be happy.

keep us updated.

 

you must have a very short memory, shorter than mine..

dont you remember how bad you hated it? how you hoped you would get kicked out? how as i recall you tried to get kicked out??

i mean your older now and im sure more mature but really dude,,, think long and hard about this one.

good luck to you in whatever you decide.. :cheers2:
