An Army of One

Posted by Gordon Woolley placed in

Well today I was sworn in to the US Army. Unfortunately it was not for the job I wanted initially.

I was unable to get the security clearance for any job due to my juvenile record. However I am able to gain clearance once I am a soldier in the Army.

So I went to my ‘Plan B’…. Airborne Ranger.
I am going to be shipping out on the 26th of September.

So here is the new plan for now…
I am going to make a decision to re-enlist or to stay. If I choose to stay I am going to probably going to move to Special Forces or Delta. But as of right now I am keeping it in the air. We will see what happens.

I am so amped about going. I will be going to Fort Benning in Georgia for about 18 weeks. Then I am most likely going to be stationed in Italy.

I will keep you posted with what is going on.
