Thanks to all. He is a tough one, and wants to do this. He has started the process though I asked him to wait til I could study it more. Thanks again.

However your young nephew proceeds, let the knowledge of just how many prayers that are offered almost constantly for our men and women in the service of our Country bring some peace to your (and yours’) hearts.

Best wishes for your nephew (and you, canary)! Be proud of his desire to serve!

God Bless!!!

Can anyone tell me whatever happened to the rolls of those who have given up looking for work? Those poor unfortunates that we used to hear of nightly during Republican administrations?
Did they suddenly disappear? Is TCO that awe inspiring that he motivates people to keep going despite having the deck stacked against them?
I can hardly wait for the healing services to be held at the White House!
It will be great to watch the lame, the deaf, the unemployed, come to the stage to allow TCO to cast out the conservatives that have caused their misfortune.

The Navy has a excellent medical corp. Navy Seals are the creme de la creme when it comes to being a fighting force. You won’t hear of them being used most of the time; black ops stuff! Your nephew had better be made of steel because while many may try to become Seals ……… only a handful survive the rigorous training to earn the prized “Trident”.
If he doesn’t make the Seals, the Navy does provide “Corpsman” to the U.S. Marine Corps (battlefield “Docs”). He will train along side the Finest Fighters and be protected to the last man. From my personal experience, the “Corpsman” become one of the team and joins “The Gallant Breed”.

Either way, he can do no wrong. I hope this helps.

HELP! My young nephew can’t find work and is going into military. He has a year of college. He wants to go in Navy. I’m worried for any soldier with Obama running things. He wants to go into medical field and be a Navy Seal. I do not know much about the Navy. Any advice?

“Aren’t these auto workers now unemployed?”

I don’t think so, technically. I think they’re eligible for unemployment, but they probably still have full salary and benefits from the auto companies.

Obviously, you are way to smart to be an Obama voter.

The BLS revised the June unemployment to 9.7% for the phony number, and to 16.5% for the total number. Data here: http://www.google.com/publicda.....yment+rate

I believe one of the rules of calculation the BLS goes by is that anybody who goes over the 26 week limit hits the not attached list and gets taken out of the active unemployed status.

Even if they are still drawing extended benefit checks from the stimuNOT package they still get moved to another class of the six groups the BLS uses for calculations.

They are like 8 year olds.

Mikey did it, not me. It isn’t so bad anyway. Why do you always pick on me anyway? I hate you.
