Military FNG: Where did this interest come from?
http://militaryfng.blogspot.com/2009/01/where-did-this-interest-come-from.html
Thursday, January 22, 2009. Where did this interest come from? First off, I feel that an interest has turned into a passion. I've been dutifully thinking and praying and talking over the entire process of joining the Army. Seemingly, out of the blue I started thinking about this. But as I try and think back, little things along the way steered me towards this conclusion. Let's take a journey back in time! 160;Ok, that was really cheesy but let me just brainstorm for a minute.

Military FNG: MEPS Notes
http://militaryfng.blogspot.com/2009/01/meps-notes.html
Sunday, January 11, 2009. Well, I came back from MEPS unscathed. I took some notes while I was there and I though I would share them with you. I'm not really going to edit them and I just jotted them down in a bullet point format so I'll keep that the same too. Enjoy. MEPS Trip 1 Day 1 20081203. Took the ASVAB in about 1:45. Got a 71 total and a 114 on GT (needed 110 for OCS). Bunked up with Chad (Navy) - ASVAB = 78. Ate dinner with Chad and Jillian (Army - ASVAB = 95). MEPS Trip 1 Day 2 20081204.

http://militaryfng.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 18, 2009. I recently got the OTB Abyss. If I were to tell you what they were up front, you probably would think I lost my mind. This should sum it up:. Boot is ideal for use in any rocky or muddy situation, the sole unit also works well in dry conditions. With its superior fit and drainage features, this boot works well in any environment. These boots were "designed and engineered at the request of the U.S. Navy SEALs.". Water from puddles get in. But isn't that the point? Jogging in them ...
