She's been wanting to go into the military as long as I can remember. Well, she just graduated from BCT at Fort Jackson last week and is now at Fort Lee for AIT. She graduated from high school ahead of schedule right when she turned 17.

After AIT she goes directly to Fort Benning for Airborne School. So, if everything goes well, she will still be 17 years old when she gets her Jump Wings. Pretty impressive accomplishments I think, for a very determined 5'1" young lady.

To say I'm proud is an understatement.

With her recruiter at MEPS Swearing in -
