Since this thread I weigh 200 (Weight just fell off... Literally the easiet thing I've ever done.) I also went to MEPS and got a 100 combined on the ASVAB (Needed 100. I'm really impressed with this score since I wasn't able to study or sleep well before the test because I worked a lot that week.)
I have to get my wrist tattoo removed, however, and that's coming along great. It's cheaper than you'd think, $90. I had my 3rd appointment on Tuesday. After 2 sessions, the guy has never seen such fantastic progress. Hopefully I can go to Coast Guard bootcamp this fall.

We were up until 0345 this morning. Echo wasn't a fan of the huge thunderstorm we got and he kept us up howling and jumping on the bed.

Thanks Bob, Tom, Jay, and Brendon.
I'm really excited to take this step. The Military has always been a dream.
I'm going to get ****ed up right away by my Company Commanders (CG version of the Drill Sergeant). You have to fill out a form stating if you have, or had anyone in the CG, and where you were born.
My Wife's in the CG, my Dad was a GM1 in the CG, and I was born at Cape May, where CG boot camp is.
Your CC's get all of this information before they meet you (Which is after the 1st week). So they literally sit around and read all of this, and find things to "attack" you with.
I'm ****ed
