    If you worry about being one of 10%, your chances are greatly increased of being one of them.

    Gotta be a winner.

        Don't worry, by the time you get there they'll be in urban warfair, and that's a 33%ish death rate. ;P

        But seriously, good luck man, I applaude what you're doing, even if I don't agree with the war.

            You'll do fine; I went into Basic wighing 130lbs, and I am only 5'5". I came out 150...it will change your life; but it isnt designed to make you fail. It is designed to help you go beyond what you thought your limits were. Keep a positive attitude, no matter what, and you'll do great.

              I don't think he's talking about being the 10% of servicemen who die--rather, the 10% who don't make it through basic training, or boot camp if you're becoming a Marine.

              Good luck, and remember: half of the battle is 90% mental!

                      I'm guessing he got back, as he bumped his enlistment thread as well.
                      God....I guess I was probably returning videotapes.

                        I saw that other thread, but why bring it back up? Why not just make a new post saying he's out of the Army?

                          Because new posts dont give the whole story. I don't know how many threads I have seen that commented on a thread from the past and I am like "what gives". Sorry for not commentoing on the bump though, ya I made it, it was the worst, and best time of my life. Really tries you and shows you what your made of.
