Look how scrawny I was when I joined.

I found these while cleaning out the basement (need more room for cryptomining, lol).

I ended up getting buff as hell eventually.

Fun fact: I was the first 19D in the entire ARMY to go through Sniper school. Kind of crazy to think about some nerdy kid dropping out of high school and then joining the ARMY and really excelling at life. Ended up shooting dozens of people before I even kissed a girl because I went from nerdy incel high school drop out to super fit elite warrior fighting in the middle east for like 6 years straight.

PS. If you wonder why I prefer an M14 over an M24 then you probably never fought in urban warfare.
