For me it was when I made Sgt E-5.  I was already Supply Chief for my battery as a Cpl in a Gunny billet!  There was a LOT of resentment from the other SupChfs because they were all Staff Sgts and weren't picked fo the job.  My billet was at HqBtry 11th Mar, and so although I was junior in rank, I was senior in billet to all of them.  Once I made Sergeant, and brought the unit up in its inspections, I got the respect and deference I had EARNED, which is the best way after all.  Semper Fi, and THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.

Talk to anyone with an Army Knowledge Online (AKO) account to look him up by name. This gives you his official email address and Unit. \n\nIf you don't already know someone in the Army, call a Recruiter and explain your situation..................

I am!  And no, I'm not pregnant OR going away.  Wishful thinking on his part, I'm a Sargeant and here to stay.  When I joined up three years ago, the Marine Corps (according to my recruiter) had less than 10 thousand females to the 90 thousand males.

I was in the Army from 1991-1998 and I miss it.  Even with the War in Iraq still raging, I miss it.  A person can leave the Army, but the Army never leaves the person.

Ok from a females point of view, South Carolina SUCKS ass, but the Army is SOOO not bad.  Teachs you alot about who you are what kind of person you are or will become.  To the person who said that the Army sux ass and go Marines.  We need each one of military branchs so don't dog one out "BC" you think its the cool thing to do.  Everyone has the one that they love, that doesn't mean that the other is better, it just means it different.  So while you were in or are in the DI's didn't do a really good job with you, dogging out another branch, yuck!!!!  We stick together bc we military people are bonded together for life, we are a different breed of people.  Just be happy for life, that you were able to get a chance to go in, and be proud of what branch of service your in. BC if you don't, your gonna get alot of crap for being so narrow minded, sorry I'm a solider, mom and RN!!!!!  I'm proud of each one of our service memebers bc we need each other no matter what, SO SUCK IT UP SOLIDER!!!! Sara

I went to basic in fort jackson....i went on june 2nd 2004. Dont bring a damn thing.....When you get there...they give you a 'smart card' and they make you buy shoes...clothes..socks..etc. Keep in mind everything you bring you will be holding with your arms straight out for atleast an hour... so dont buy anything. Try to be what we call'high speed' dont kiss ass..and DONT ASSUME THE DRILL SERGEANTS LIKE YOU..BUT do everything your told to the best of your ability and as fast as possible. Try to become the bay leader or the platoon leader. Work your ass off in pt and dont cry or whine. Whether you like the training..(rifle,landnav,bayonette courses..etc) or not have fun with it but dont smile. Say YES DRILL SEARGEANT , NO DRILL SERGEANT as loud as possible. Keep your area clean and learn how to do hospital corners on your bed BEFORE you go to basic. Start drinking plenty of water now....youll have what is called force hydration where you have to drink 2 qts so you might as well start now so you dont get sick. Make sure your 'battle buddies' dont fuck up...stay on them even if they hate you tellin them what to do itll look good on your part and youll have a smoother ride. Be aware that theyre will be some 'crazies' when you get there...people will try to pull some bullsh it and kill themselves, run away, talk back....just ignore them and do what your supposed to do. The red phase is the worst. Oh and once you get to the blue phase ( last phase) youll be right back to red phase...they like to mind fu ck you like that. Dont stress it though. Youlll learn to like the chow...no soda or dessert but youll be alright...umm if you have anymore questions you can message me on im whatever496@yahoo.com

I'm in the Marines, so I can't speak for the soldiers out there.  But NO.  The barracks are like dorms in college.  Same idea, only we all have jobs.

that is hoping for to much, my man is deploying in march, and 3 other neighbors in may 2007 all in different units. this wont happen until a vote is cast on a specific date etc... however how about pray for the safety of our troops more? that is always appreciated, even by the people who dont believe in God. (sorry)
