Summer
This summer I was in Fort Jackson, South Carolina for Basic Training for 10 weeks. I joined the Army as soon as I turned 17. I learned how to apply first aid to someone under fire, how to shoot an M4, 240Bravo, Grenade Launcher, Rocket Launcher, Saw and throw gernades. We did courses that will help us out on the field and team work courses. It was very hot! And you get barley time to sleep. We stayed outside in the field for about 9 days. It was as bad as I expected. Some parts were a challenge but it wasn't hard enough for me to quit. I' m glad I joined.
