I started trying to get in at 17. I didn't meet the physical requirements until I was 23. I was always underweight, or they weren't taking GEDs or some such. It was a long process. Almost didn't get there even after I was signed up. I got hurt in infantry school. Split a bone in my foot. One of my drills convinced me that I was ok to go to jump school. He had me do 14 laps around the half mile track while holding 2 5 gallon jugs of water. I know it sounds crazy but in that one act he did more for me than I could ever say.

The Army told me they didn't want me and sent me home :^( ... which was not far from Fort Meade where I was free to prey upon their daughters. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Their will always be a reason to throw men from planes and put them on the battle field in a quick fashion. Nothing else beats it.
