US Army Infantry, from 2004 - 2009. Two deployments to Iraq, and I can't say those were the worst times. Infantry garrison sucks - most people go AWOL because of the treatment and lifestyle there than down range. It's extreme "high school" - bullying, popularity contests, backstabbing and field trips. I went in expecting a professional atmosphere and ended up with precautionary measures for the inept and retarded (two hours early for a 6 AM formation because some slackers couldn't make it on time) or unofficial punishments meted out for personal offenses (Nothing beats a smoke session because some NCO thinks you might have been disrespecting him in your THOUGHTS).
Luckily I avoided alot of the BS, but you can't escape it all. I made some of the best friends I'll ever have there, and though I would never ever do it again, I can't say I'd UN-do it if I could.
Tom

Know how I know this? Because you posted a declassified flyer which was meant for fun as a NEWS ITEM.
No one would ever tell you anything because the VERY FIRST THING you would do is post it here. Probably incorrectly.
