     Last night I told my mother that I wanted to join the Army. She said  that it was a good idea and they pay for college, but I told her that I didn't want to go to college. I want to be a CIA Agent and nothing was going to stop me from doing so! It's hard decision but I want to do it so bad. I've signed the papers, and all I have to do is drive to the Army Recruitment Office and turn them in.

      I drove to the Recruitment Office the next morning and gave the officer my papers. He told me in the next two weeks I should be receiving a plane ticket and a badge stating that I am apart of the Army. I told my mom about what the man said and she got excited! I just hope that I do all the right things while I'm gone, and I hope that nothing interrupts my focus on my future career. I plan on being a dedicated soldier in the field.

My bags were packed and my flight was going to depart in the morning.I had a good feeling that this was going to be a long life of and spying on people I had no hint of an idea about. I got in bed and went to sleep because I knew I had a big day ahead of me.

      I hopped on the plane, and after 2 hours I arrived in Fort Knox for the 9-week training course! There were 99 other men that had applied just like me. They gave us our camouflage uniform and we suited up. We received an M-16 assault rifle and they put targets infront of us, and the same thing happened for 9-weeks.Our Commander got a call from the President Barack Obama telling us about the Syrian accident and that was our new destination. We were trained for combat and the next morning we arrived in Syria. We started dodging bullets as soon as we walked down the steps of the plane. Our soldiers threw guns at us so we could shoot back! Bullets grazed skins and soldiers fell short of being a big part of the war. We thought all the shooters we're dead until I received a shot in the center of my forehead...
