As my DI said when I got off the grinder at Parris Island, SC..."DONT THANK ME SON, THANK YOUR CONGRESSMAN... NOW ON YOUR FACE AND GIVE ME 50! DO IT NOW!!!" Lot of my unit is activated, I am not because of hardship (mortgage that Sargents pay wont come close to covering, and a 14 month old baby.) And I'm lacking qualification school in my new MOS. Basicly I was told get ready to get spooled up as the U.S. is going to be in this for a long time. I am lucky I have gotten so much time to get my affairs in order. Some guys were gone 1 week after 9/1/1 and are still out there.
