When I was about to graduate AIT at Fort Dix, NJ, my Drill Sergeant came out and started announcing our assignments. He called my name and three of my battle buddies and told us we were all going to New York. We were so excited — we were like, "Yes! We're going to New York City!!" Nope. We were going 30 miles from the Canadian border to Fort Drum, NY. Ugggh!! We were wondering why the Drill Sergeants were laughing. smh
