During my short time in the Army Which was Basic Training graduation then AIT Final week, My reason for joining IVAW is due to many reasons, My Main reason is I feel the Military are sending Men and Woman too early I was part of a group of privates that were set to Deploy in three weeks after AIT which to me seems like they are just sending us over for the extra body count. I am also a Firm believer that this war should have never taken place.
