    I don't know how you could figure that one out. You must be a prophet or mind reader.

    Welcome to the site & congratulations on your contract. I'm glad for you that the Army accepted you with scoliosis. You just made it under the wire & good for you. Will that affect your performance at all when it comes to running, doing pushups & situps especially as an Infantryman? Some pretty intense physical acrtivity there but I guess the answer is no otherwise you wouldn't be in the DEP at this time.

    I thought you were the other guy & had originally failed to post an intro & that's why I didn't respond sooner. I think it's all a conspiracy to confuse an old man. Now I'll need glasses to see the space or lack of a space between "Army" & "Strong" so I know who I'm talking to!! lol.

    lol. Yeah my scolioses isn't so bad or anything that it affects me. If you saw my back you wouldn't even know unless you ran ur hand down my spine which would be weird thing for you to do. lol. I go to PT every Thursday till I leave. I hate it but its good for you I guess... Well good luck figuring out who your talking to. lol
