Hy Barbara, glad you could join us. Im flying from atlanta to dullas, not really across the country but 500 miles.. and im lookin forward to meetin ya.. anyone wearing any uniforms?

it's nice to talk to everyone~ I'm flying from LAX, but I was just wondering, if we have to be looking into careers in the army to go to this forum only because I'm interested in a completely different job field rather than the army or something else.....I'm a little worried now...

Uhh Well I'm not really looking for a military job either...so ya... x.x

I think that they just say something like going there to see if you're interested in those types of careers. And if you don't choose those careers in the end you still have experience, or something along that line. So I don't think you have to be looking into those careers to go.

It depends on what careers your referring to. If you are referring to the military, of course not. The National Secruity forum, in my opinion, is really for people who are intrested in the CIA, FBI, etc. Notice, on the tours list, basically everything listed on there are different careers you can go into, yet there are still some military choices (Andrews Airforce Base, etc). So for you, there is really no reason to worry. I mentioned uniforms cause I'm in JROTC and was wondering if anyone else planned to wear theirs. So anyway, what career field do you have in mind?

Regardless on where you end up in life, it looks good on a resume

what jrotc r u in? im wearing my uniform at the forum. im in afjrotc

I don't have a uniform but wish I did. On the other hand I'm pretty nerdy so if I did have a uniform it would probably consist of a lab coat and glasses so I can do with out Anyone flying out of the dallas airport? Or landing in the regan dc airprot? I hate flying alone. Are you all ready with the research assignments? Sorry...I ask a lot of questions.

Oh...and to anwser snichols question, I live about an hour and a half out of sacramento in the foothills area. And if you know the area its a small town named clements by jackson and angles camp.

snichols, im in army JROTC.. but only a corporal, just started this year.. but what rank are ou..

Hey~
thanks navyseals and mt_tranphung that's good to know..well i want to go into the medical field. for the research assignments, we just prepare by reading them adn grasping the info right? is there a writing assignment or anything? i know it doesn't say it on the paper but i just want to make sure.
sorry, but one more question...where are you guys from? :] and anyone flying out from LAX to the washington dulles airport??

Are you from Cali BC126? LAX airport sounds familiar. And I don't remember anything about a writing assignment...I've just been reading up on the topics. I just hope there isn't a quiz or anything.

Your welcome barbara.. i want to let you know that there is a NYLF on medicine. just an fyi.. but regardless the expierence will be awesome, although i heard our dance is only 30 minutes. and all you need to do is read the strategy lessons and check out any sites that may be listed. They give you these resources because they want you to be prepared for what your going to do. also, to answer your other question barbara, i am from augusta, ga, and im not flying from LAX (which is in LA gidget) but i will be flying to dulles. my flight is around 10:30 est, and so i should arrive around 11:30.. few days left, cant wait..

Hey you guys...i'm going to that one too...which is next week if i'm right...

Just wondering but does anyone use skype or aim? o.O

I'm from San Jose, CA. I'm going to be leaving from San Francisco international airport.

anyone from southern VA or Richmond area??

So how do you think we're gonna be paired up? This is a huge group so are we gonna stick together or what? Anyone know how to find out who our room mate is if we have one?

gidget, that is a question you should be asking the kids from oct 2-7 session, they can tell you all about it. im pretty sure alphabetical order may had something to do with it, cause i think we are in groups of + or - 25. and i betcha that we will be informed of our roomates as we arrive.. i heard the rooms are quite nice, housing 4.. with 2 beds, a cot, tv, bathroom n desk.. maybe like a typical hotel.. but you wont spend that much time in your room either. also, get ready for you people who need beauty sleep.. the schedule usually is wake up at about 0530 or 0600 and bed at about 0030 or 0100.

navyseals523-im a c/major and ive been in since my freshman year
BC126-im leaving LAX @ 0820 pst to Dulles, and one of my friends went to the medical one last year @ UCLA

and those who think 0530 or 0600 is crazy early you guys have never gone to an jrotc summer camp

couldnt have said it any better myself snichols, its gonna be a blast

i totally agree. cant wait to meet you all on tues!
