I know a lot of you posting were a little taken aback by the last $h^tstorm I created by being impolite to a fellow forum member. For that I apologize. But trust me, i’ve put in my time at high school. Worked like h ell to get accepted, and am not just some arrogant punk who thinks he knows it all. I congratulate everyone whos gotten in and give my best wishes to everyone still waiting.

I do however have a few questions if anyone feels like answering it would be much appreciated.

I’ve been looking for a detailed schedule of Beast Barracks. If anyone had seen one I would greatly appreciate the link. Could not find it on any google search. Just want to know what hopefully lies ahead.

“A modern requirement: no tattoos or brands on the face, neck or head. No tattoos prejudicial to good order and discipline anywhere. On R-Day, all existing tattoos, brands and body modifications will be documented. Additions to same while a cadet is grounds for dismissal.”

I always wanted to get an Army tattoo and I always have understood that meant nothing on the hands and neck. But can you still not get any tattoos while you are a cadet? I wasn’t planning on putting something ridiculous on or anything, just a small USMA after I had been in a few years, then Class of hopefully 2010 When i graduated. Am i going to have to wait until I’m commissioned?

I’m sure someones gonna be smart and tell me there are more important things to worry about like making it through, but trust me I’m already doing everything in my power at this point, just was curious.

Once again, sorry to who I offended, Hooah, Oorah, Hooya, whatever you prefer.

Respectfully,

Mumford
