Monroeville, Alabama
“Life experiences influenced me to join the Army. I felt this would keep me on the right road to success and teach me to be more disciplined. My older brother also had a big influence on my decision” to enlist.
“I honestly thought Basic Combat Training would be a lot harder than it was. A lot of things have changed over the years that I wasn’t aware of, so the corrective training was easier, as well as my drill (sergeants) being more of mentors.”
“The most challenging part was maintaining focus throughout BCT. This is my first time being away from my Family and friends. So, adjusting was hard for me because I’m not really a social person in the outside world.“
“My MOS is 42A - Human Resources Specialist. I just wanted to do something a little easy to get a feel for the Army before I change my MOS.”
