“Its doesn't matter what way you choose to serve the country with. You can either be an active duty or an army reserve. They both serve the country, so it doesn't really matter. There is a link to show you the differences in the two. Which ever you pick will do because no matter what you will be serving the country as Amercian Soldier.”
When you get to basic training, you will get a uniform. The only other clothes you have is the ones you wore there. You can only take things like shampoo, soap, deodorant, and etc.
You will have to start a checking account because your checks will be deposited. You don’t see any of your money until you graduate basic training. This is about twelve weeks.
You can’t see any of your family until graduation day. They have a big ceremony that day. After basic training is completed you then go to do your AIT. this is Advanced Individual Training.
You can be sent anywhere in the country. This lasts about two- three months. Then you get a leave to visit your family. Before you go on leave, you will get your next orders and where you will be stationed. Sometimes it’s in another country.
Depending on where you go will deciede when you are deployed during the war time. Most single soldiers stay on base and share rooms with other soldiers. Married soldiers can live off base with their families. No families are allowed in other countries when we are at war with them.
This is a very intersecting blog. Now anyone who wants to join the army can use your blog to help them. Just be sure to go over your capitalization and grammar before you summit your blogs. There was a few error's but other than that great job Hannah.

DeleteWhen introducing a quote, you need to introduce the source first. Your overall post was good. Keep up.
ReplyDeleteThis was an interesting post and I liked reading it
ReplyDeleteI like how organized you made your post, and you made it very detailed and informative. Good job.
ReplyDeleteJoining the army is a big step! I have much respect for those who protect America. Make sure to read over what you have written prior to posting. On step 2, "a recruiter will call you if they think you are qualified" is not accurate. Instead of saying 'if they think' try saying "they will call you if you are qualified". Better yet, leave out 'if they think'. Overall, good post. Hope this helps.
