When are you leaving for Basic? We have to hang before you go. What of your ride? Just an FYI, I was in the Marines so if you have any question about the Military feel free to ask. Actually there are a few of us on here that are active or retired.

I was wondering the same thing. If they aren't on the FB group, they must be wondering why there aren't many postings.
