I haven't run a lot but I seem to run more on my toes.

I have KSOs as well

lol


I bet a ton of new recruits would fall for that too. Good thing you put the disclaimer.

Please tell me that is sarcasm because people try to compare ASVAB scores on here.

When I was stationed in Korea I took a PT test and did "OK" on the run. Then I bought a regular bike and rode it everywhere I had to go for the next six months. The only running I did was during...

I am still trying to get used to mine. All my toes feel great except for the two smallest. I am hoping the muscles start to relax and let them stretch out more (broke them in BCT in 97).

Just curious, but why wouldn't they allow them if you have white socks as well?

Currently enrolled with the University of Phoenix. BS in Business Administration.

Just got my Vibrams in the mail today. I haven't ran in them yet but I have them on so my toes can get use to them.

Better yet, why don't they just check the military database and not worry about the DD214 to begin with. Just like they should do Federal BGC's instead of having someone write down their entire life...

Just order them off their website. That's what I had to do. That way you can get exactly what you want. Mine should be here this week. I am looking forward to trying them out.

That is music to my ears.

I lol'd.


(response too short, disregard)

I plan on wearing them around the house/city (don't care if I get laughed at) to get me ready for running in them. I haven't even made it to MEPS yet so no telling when my first APFT will be.

That is so F'ing awesome. lol

Brandon, you should start classes at a place like UoP close to Ft. Bragg after you get back from deployment. That way you can work toward a degree in your free time (with the Army paying 100% of...

S.o.A.B.

Oh well, once I say the oath this times it will be until I retire anyway. No point in having 8 1/2 years active and 6 NG and not staying until retirement. My problem is going to be NOT...

Hey, if I did over 8 years active and I enlist in the NG does that mean my total contract would again be for 8 years or is my IRR commitment already up?

Personal preference.

I want to know if the bonuses are the same for both. I can't get a bonus for my MOS in the NG :(

Anyone know of any differences in enlistment bonuses or are those just for critical MOS's for both?

Can someone tell me the difference besides one is Federal and one is State?

I would imagine that it would be up to your unit, but I took a 34 inch flat screen tv, xbox, and stereo to Iraq with my unit (regular Army) so I would assume not. Especially if you offer your...

So I guess it is up to my future commander. I will ask him next time I stop by the recruiter's office.

Just ordered a pair of KSO blue/gray camo in size 45. Yay!

I'm about to order a pair of KSO's with either the blue or the black camo. But what does AR 670-1 say about wearing socks with PTs?

What style are most of the guys in your unit wearing (style,...

So did anyone find out if these are actually authorized? I am very curious about them since I have to run at high altitude (SLC). If I could cut down my run time they would be worth it.

Good for the ROK. Too bad it won't do any good until Kim Jong Il dies though.
