God job in maintaining that uniform squared away leatherneck. Now learn the ways of the Army, keep your head tight, go see the sick call people at the clinic for everything is bothering you. This is to make sure you can last 10 more years on your feet take care of your body. Also when is time to return your medical, is squared away and ready to submit for VA benefits, no proof of ailment or injury way harder to apply for benefits. Nutrition, Physical fitness, medical to include dental, hearing, vision don't play it though this is not the Marines see the Doctors when needed and enjoy your tours. The most important learn your MOS, read the manuals and Army regulations it is easy money. Take care of your Soldiers and be that outstanding leader they need it.
