  1. #1

    Default just some questions

    hey!
    i'm just hinking about going into the guard and had some questions,
    first would IBS keep me form being able to join? how many miles do you run and how fast do you have to run it in, i'm a little worried that i wont be able to keep up? Also ,this question only a gril could really answer, what is it like being one of few girls in the guard?

    First, I don't know what IBS means, but im pretty sure they could help you get better at running, (I know I would help on that part since that shouldn't be a reason to keep someone from joing-but my guess is we live no where close to each other) as for the other question, a girl has every right to be in the military if she chooses to, as a guy does. Why should guys be allowed to fight to save their country, but a girl can't? There are now laws saying a female can do anything she want's (except murder!) without being held back, so even if you were the only female in the troop, don't let that hold you back if you really want to join, then join no matter what! Again, I’m not a girl so I wouldn't know, but I would guess even if you were the only girl (you wont be) you still wouldn't regret it.
    Well enough talking for now, just have to toss this through the spell checker first lol.

    I have wanted to join the military since i wasa little kid, so welcome to the group
    It's good to know what you want to do when you grow up, makes things a lot easier.
    I already contacted the recruiter and am getting things all set up, but i don't become an official member till June 16th (around this date anyways)
    I will also be starting ROTC in a couple months
    You have a couple years to decide what you want to do, so just give it time

    Wow your just like me thinking about the guard. I was in sixth grade when I was thinking about it. Though right now I feel as though I'm the only high school student in my grade to think about the guard. As for IBS I could ask someone in my school who knows a lot about the guard.
    Soon my life will take a turn and I have to make a choice of a life time.

    Well I'll PM you on what grade I'm in. Sort of a internet safety reason. But it was shocking to me a few days ago when I was sitting in my history class and I hear some girls talking about boyfriends and what not. I thought in my head "Their talking about boys and here I am thinking about joining the guard." It sort of shocked me.

    Oh don't worry. A box will pop up and say that you have a PM. Or just click 'Private Messages' that is under the whole 'Welcome, so and so' Quite simple really.

    lol same here ready, I've always wanted to join the military, but everyone in my school thinks about other stuff, for example, when i told a kid in my Latin class that i wanted to join the Guards, everyone kept asking why
    Even the people in ROTC didn't understand
    It's great to know theirs others that also think about it

    rooserdo, I can say that every morning when I wake-up and realize that Im in the guard makes my day wonderful because we (women) are getting to do more and more every day. Yes on occasions it makes me very unhappy that women can't do everything that men can do, but rember this we (women) get one step closer to doing what the guys can do every day that we are in the guard. What is your MOS? Mine's Motor transportation.

    Man I hope my mom agrees in letting me join the guard. I really wanna help people and feel that way everytime I wake up in the morning. But right now school is one thing that is on my list.
    But some people at my school are already trying to set up a time for me to see a recruiter. I told them that I need to do some reasearch before anything happens. But the good news is a lot of people told me that they could see me in the guard.
    I wish you the best of luck this June countrygirl19.
