So your loved one is joining the military? You have so many questions running through your head and all you want is support and answers. But Gaia is full of people who's responses are:
"OMG! He's going to die!"
"He's dumb. The army's stupid."
"Enjoy your last few weeks with him, he's gonna die."
"I don't know."
"Who cares? He's stupid and gonna die."
This is not what you want to hear. It doesn't answer your questions nor does it help.
That's why we are here! It's a gathering of those who know what you are going through and are more then willing to help. And to join you just have to follow these simple rules:
1. To join, you must have a loved one in a branch of the military service or be going in yourself.
2. You must be willing to help others get through the same thing that you yourself are going through.
3. You must not flame or put another down.
If you fall into those categories, then please join!
Here is a break down of the forums available here:
1. They're thinking of Joining: A place for people to go for support and questions when their loved one tells them they are thinking of the army.
2. They're Leaving Soon: For people's whose loved ones' deployment date is coming soon.
3. They're Gone: For the people whose love one has left on their deployment.
4.What Is Really Going On?: For those who are confused as to what the military is all about so they can better understand what they, or their loved, one is getting into.
5. General Questions and Concerns: A place to just ask questions about the things that are bothering or concerning you, if you feel that they don't belong in another forum.
I hope that you join and get the help that you were so seeking.
And as always, respect the Moderators of this guild.
