Default Going back to meps 3rd time is a charm

Long story short, I was medically discharged for passing 3 kidney stones in 2 weeks during basic February last year and was just cleared monday to hopefully sign away again tomorrow. Wish me luck and hopefully looking forward to serving many years to come.

I had to go a few times. Was in the Marines for about 6 months. Discharged for breaking my foot twice in a row. I thought about going back but dont want to go through it all again.

19D Cav scout was what I've been wanting. Doctors and everything cleared me for the medical stuff and passed my physical with flying colors. Now just have to wait for my waiver to clear from battalion. From what I have been told (recruiting station) and read that I should be pretty much be guaranteed a go from them. So wish me luck and hope that I get the good news in the upcoming week or so and they let me go sign and swear back in.

I'm guessing you were at the MEPS at Ft. Sam in SA? I'm not too sure where Allen, TX is. 11B here, shipping out to Benning August 9.
