This CNN story follows Will McClain, a recent high school graduate from a small town in California, as he enlists in the U.S. Army.   I thought Will's story was interesting because it is similar to the story of many recent graduates of our own school.  

Do you know anyone who has recently entered the military?  What has their experience been like?

Have you ever considered serving in the military yourself?  Has the war in Iraq and Afghanistan influenced your decision one way or another?

  1. i think that giving up football was a bad mistake, because that was his last year of football an his only chance of getting a scholarship with football. since i dont know anybody that recently went to the army i couldnt get there opinion on how the army was. after high school is completely finished i will then join the marines.
