In the upper right corner of all posts you will see a heart. If you like what some one has said you click on the heart and a screen will appear. In that screen you could right "This is a rep! Good job!" or what ever you want to write then send it. Now you can click on on "User CP" in the upper left corner of your screen (in the blue bar). You will see your last reps that others have sent. It also shows how many points you have.

How many points do you have?

NO! but you have to have a plan in the first place to expect that to happen, lol But I am happy.


Are you physicaly fit? Do you have any "emergancy plan" if you don't find what you are looking for in a timely manner?

Tried the AF but was a general automatic DQ because of my feet. (Flat and very wide.)

My brother is in the AF, he says they just really amped up their physical requirements, and I have heard they aren't taking many, mostly just want grunts for Army/Marines.

If you could fly any retired aircraft, which would you pick?

I joined the fun one! Army! Either way you will be OK. Some are harder to get in to than others. I think the Coast Gaurd is the best bang for the buck...I hear you get a lot of training! Thanks for chit chatten...we will do it again later/tomorrow.

Is that OK with you?
