“My parents and my brother influenced me to join the Army.”
“I imagined Basic Combat Training to be difficult, but motivating. I envisioned a tough, self-developing, character-building adventure.”
“The most challenging part of BCT was dealing with more difficult battle buddies.”
“Advice I would give someone planning to start BCT is to just relax and keep moving forward. Always keep hope even when it seems like there is no point. It will be over soon. “
“My MOS is 15T - Black Hawk Helicopter Repairer. I have always been fascinated with aviation and based on my research, there are a lot of good opportunities in this MOS.”
