For this training it was something different because this was more like a family day with the soldiers and the other future soldiers. We had a barbecue day at Gellert Park. I had my mom, cousin and some of my friends to support me. Once all of us future soldiers were at the park different recruiters from different ranks made some speeches to motivate us future soldiers and to let us know that we should be proud or ourselves for having the decision to join the Army because it takes guts to sign up to any military services. A Sergeant told us about our military, on how we have the best military in the whole world. One of the speeches of the Sergeants that hit me the most was about how 1 out 4 people only gets in the Army which made me realize that when I began the process I only had 25% onto getting enlisted. With all the speeches that the soldiers told us, I as a future soldier have to think and know what I am doing in the near future because once I do something inappropriate I am also bringing the Army with the inappropriate action that I am doing. And that we should always live through our Army Values and the Soldier's Creed. After all the speeches we had to chance to sit with our family and friends and eat and to also to socialize with the other future soldiers and their families and friends as well. After everyone was done eating our new leader, Sergeant Granados told us what we were doing next week and he told us that he will be in a leave for a week but we would have Physical Training Test next week.
