Since I grew up in the military I've grown accustomed to the lifestyle. So I'm always thinking about joining after I graduate ... preferably the AF (but I'm a little biased :) !!!) but I'm interested in the Army also. (At my college the Army ROTC program has really connected itself with the nursing program, whereas it's difficult just to get an appointment to talk to someone with the AF ROTC.) Anyways... 1) I've heard negative stories about the treatment of Army nurses by superiors. Now I realize there will always be "those kinds of people" out there but I wondered if you have experienced anything. 2) How often were/are you deployed overseas and how long are the deployments? Well, I'm off to Physiology now ... FUN! TTYL, C_Hope

C_Hope ...but then again I'm only an AF brat Vette Guy ... thanks for your ! So now I know... do you have anything to say regarding your experience in the Army? Enlighten me please!

Yes sir, Lt. Dan, sir!!

hello everyone, i'm in my first quarter of the nursing program at my school and i'm really excited to be here! i found this site for a project at school and it looks like a great place to keep in contact with. currently i'm in introductory nursing classes and physiology. i'm 24 years old and i'm a full-time student with a part-time job at a restaurant. i don't have any experience in a medically related job; i did work as a dietary aide at a nursing home a few years back. i'll graduate in the spring of 2008 with my bsn. i've been in school for quite a while (i will also get my b.a. in english in 2008) so i don't think i want to immediately pursue a master's degree. i'm a military brat so i'm also thinking about going through the air force's cot program once i graduate. although i'm open to learning about any field of nursing i'm interested in the following fields: er icu/ccu mental health i'd like to hear from anyone willing to give me advice, stories, comments, etc on nursing classes, clinicals, the nclex, being a civilian nurse, being an air force nurse, etc. i'm also up for just chatting about day-to-day things as well. i'm always excited to learn from anyone about anything! hope to hear from you! c_hope
