Your recruiter doesn't know that the Infantry are trained at Fort Benning??? That's like a baker not knowing that flour goes into a cake.

It's irrelevant what base you train at. You won't see any of it other than barracks and woods, and your friends and family won't be coming to visit other than your graduation. The only thing that really matters is which base you go to after, and that you start doing PT now to stay ahead of your peers. The infantry is very physically demanding and more than any other job you are judged on your ability to carry a ruck, run, and do PT.

You need to find a new recruiter. Any real recruiter should be able to answer that question instantly. Plus, even if they couldn't answer it, their job is to quickly get you that answer. That should take them no longer than 2 seconds.

After reading your question again, something just ain't right. If you are reenlisting, why are you talking to a recruiter, and why are you going through MEPS? Those are for brand new troops, not a reenlistment.

SGM Erik Marquez Yeah, missed that. Something still isn't right about this. My bullshit detector is working overtime.
