Default I enlisted in the army yesterday

Taking my 37 year-old self off to the 'warrior transition course'. It's kind of like basic training for guys who have been in the military before. I signed up to be a 25B (Information systems operator/analyst) so I'll be learning how to set up and troubleshoot computers and internet. I am pretty excited about it! I have been mostly a stay-at-home parent since my wife enlisted in the army back in 2001. Now that the youngest kid is in school it is time for me to get myself a career.

I leave on January 27th and will still try to post as often as I can!

Thanks, fellas. If I get done with school early enough they will probably hustle me off to Iraq. Then I will REALLY need the Zone to keep me up-to-date with all things Cowboy!

I have a pretty good IT profession after starting as a 29N in the Army...

Only thing bad about was that I was in AIT for nearly a year in Ft. Gordon,GA.

$$$ every since good or bad economy

Good Luck bro

Congrats, good luck and take care!

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

Tell her to be good or you will manipulate the computer systems and give her an article 15.
