Basic Training is stressful enough, but there are things you can do here and now to make it less stressful.

You'll spend the best nine weeks of your life learning what it means to be a soldier in the US Army. And when it's over, you'll discover some amazing things. Your mind will be sharper, your body will be lean and hard, and you'll be more confident than you've ever been before.

You'll be asked to do a lot during Army National Guard Basic Training. But you'll never be asked to do anything you can't do. If you work hard and listen to your Drill Sergeants, you shouldn't have a problem. Remember, literally millions of soldiers have come before you and many of them didn't think they could get through Basic. The vast majority of them did. And chances are, so will you.

Army National Guard Basic Training is demanding. Prepare yourself for Boot Camp, mentally and physically. Set yourself up for success - excel at your new military career!

Not only will you learn the basics of how to look and act like a soldier, you will slowly but surely become a soldier. You will become physically fit, self-confident and willing and able to tackle anything that comes your way! You will become intimately familiar with your assigned M16A2 rifle and everything it does, as well as fire a machine gun, a grenade launcher and a host of other weapons in the US Army arsenal. You will learn to become quick on your feet by participating in hand to hand combat and a bayonet assault course. You will learn how to be quick mentally and overcome your fear by tackling challenging obstacles! You will gain confidence in your equipment by entering the gas chamber. Mentally, your brain will be challenged every day with new skills and tasks. Lastly, you'll make lifelong friends who can share in the trials and tribulations of National Guard Basic Training and join the life-long club of being a basic training graduate...certainly something to be proud of!

excuse me sir umm i have a plan somewhat figured out and my recruiter has been talking to me about but not really getting it hope you can help but i want to be come a officer through ocs then switch to active duty and do infantry to do ranger "tryouts" ummm how hard is it do do this from what i understand its hard to get an open infantry slot

[iguardcalifornia]

@RangerUSArmy10 What are you not really getting? Be specific, how old are you and where do you reside?

[JewFish203]

Is 25b a hard MOS

[iguardcalifornia]

@JewFish203 PART 1- That really depends on u. Im assuming since ur asking about 25B Info Systems Operator, u may already have an interest in systems/computers/tech. If this is the case then It won't be as difficult as someone who may not be familiar with anything in that field. Remember, if u have an interest in something you tend to learn quicker. Besides, if u make the minimum qual. scores on the ASVAB for this MOS then u are showing that you are capable of handling the training.

[iguardcalifornia]

@JewFish203 PART 2- Is it harder than Combat Arms? Yes and no. Yes- Combat arms MOS's allow entrance with much lower scores, I can enlist infantryman all day but a 25B is a little harder to locate. No- You may meet infantry scores but may not possess the linear thinking abilities required for combat arms. Best advice, take the ASVAB, see what jobs you qualify for, pick what u believe suits you, join only when you find the best job for you. Good luck my friend, call me for more info.

VBH8888,

[eyesack9]

@37knighthawk you can't enlist until you're 17 with your parents permission

[37knighthawk]

All that I know is that when I get my GED Im going into the army (16). Junior in Illinois

[XpickmansmodelX]

@MrSpider732 Just call your recruiter. I fortunately WAS able to join with just a GED. I swore in last week. Army is really the only branch you can get in with a GED and no college credits. Chances of that happening are slim though.



[MrgotPump]

@MrSpider732 all about where you join, my cousin did, and my brother couldnt because he had a ged,

[anzwertree]

Dude, you rock. thanks for the tips

[FaytUzamaki]

@MrSpider732 if u have GED u need college credits as well i think..

[Flymazing]

@MrSpider732 Ummm....you could I guess. But they are looking for more highschoool diplomas more

[MrSpider732]

can you join with a GED?

[ithpally]
