Hooah!!

Postby JohnnyBoii » Tue Nov 01, 2011 11:52 pm

Hey guys. My name is Johnathan Brown, my call name is Johnny Boii. I am from Salem Oregon. I am 16 & in my Jr. year in High School. I have experience in both Airsoft & Paintball. I am joining the Army Medical Corp. I am going to be a 68 Whiskey aKa Combat Medic. My main reason for really getting into Airsoft is for military preparation. Talking with recruiters, they all say Milsim is a very good trainer. I am still deciding on all my gear, I really want a full metal m4, but I am leaning toward a non metal due to funds. I hope you guys could help me get the correct gear to get closer to real weapons. I'll post the gear I am planning on getting in the gear section.

Thanks all!
Hooah!

Welcome! Get your EMT-B before you get shipped out! I'm a 68W right now, makes you get through AIT a whoooole lot faster if you have it before you join.

I know allot of recruiters now prefer people who do MILSIM. One recruiter asked me about that two years ago. I told him I do particpate in MILSIM. Then he asked me if I was available to go to office to take the practice ASVAB.

I can see a conspiracy forming :shock:

Hahah. I've been playing airsoft for a a while. I know many welts you can get. Haha.

And to the age. I know how mature I am, I understand that most will look down on me because of my age. I can deal with it. :D Thanks for the warning! I'll definitely not talk with him. I hope he'll realize that I can go above his stereotypes of teenagers.
