My Older Sister Is About To Graduate Basic Training
Like I was telling you all before my older sister joined the Army. Well this month on the 27 she will graduate from Basic Training. She has been gone now for all most 2 months.
At the start of Basic Training it was a little tough for because she is not used to all the yelling and screaming that the Drill Instructor’s do. But in due time she has gotten used to all the discipline and the military bearing that you learn at Basic Training.
She is excited about going to A.I.T but at the same time she is missing her family. I told her that it will only get easy after Basic Training and A.I.T. I also told her when she gets to her permanent duty station her time in the Army will be a lot easier.
Her day will start off with a P.T. formation at 0630, she will do P.T from 0630 to 0730. Then most likely a formation at 0900 for work call, then she will get off around 1700 depending on the day and how the work schedule is and the work load.
So I am very proud of my older sister and I can not wait to go down to Ft. Jackson to see her graduate from Basic Training, because she was the only one to come see me when I graduated from Basic Training back in 1999. So good job to my older Sister. SGT Skully Out.

Reading your blog brings back lots of memories for me. I went into the Army in 1974 when we were still WACs and I too did my basic training at Fort Jackson, SC. I did my AIT at Fort Sam Houston (Medic) and spent the remaining time of my 4 year commitment at Fort Carson, Colorado. I met my husband there (he spent 30 years active and reserve), he was an officer and I was enlisted. Our daughter did ROTC in college and did a four year stint also, she even went airborne.
