Army Highschool?

[CH1]

To the young Lad

FINISH School!!!!  Everybody has given you  good reasons to see it through.  There is 1 reason that is first & foremost:  YOU.  There is life after the military.  You could decide after your 1st hitch it isn't for you & quit.  By then you will prbably be a statistic with wife & 2.5 kids.  There you sit, even Rotten Ronny wouldn't hire you at that point.  You end up in a $6.00/hr dead end job.

It is now plenty tough on civvie street to get a 1/2 decent job with grade 12.  If you finish high school & continue with a military career, Gr 12 will help not hinder you.  With Gr 12 you will find the courses easier to comprehend.  Whether it be military or civvie career, it is easier to advance your education with Gr 12 vs Gr9.  DO IT FOR YOURSELF!

Cheers & good luck in school

I always wished that  I had enrolled in  the Reserve co-op program in high school. A semester off to do military training? Man, if I had only known...

You say that cadets are a joke? Well, cadets cover many of the things this "Army school" of yours would. Drill, dress & deportment, some small arms.......... heck, you can even get your jump wings in cadets (and wear them on your uniform in the real Army!)  So before you write them off, I think you should actually look a little deeper into it because there's lots you could gain from being in cadets
