So iv just set a new goal on top of all the others iv set for my self this deployment. I was just informed that this fall we will have the opportunity to go for our EIB(expert infantry badge) in the fall. So now I'm shooting for that I'm never gonna get my CIB(combat infantry badge) so the EIB will have to do and some hold it in higher regard then the CIB. the hardest will be all the technical stuff on the weapons. iv got months to study and prep i'll have the PT portion under wraps at the rate I'm going now, the ruck will be alright its flat here there's just no scenery just flat desert and camels, and shooting that's in the bag as well iv shot expert every time with every weapon. I know most about most weapons i just get hung up on nomenclature and the fine details about clay mores because we don't see them much hell iv never seen a real one. I got plenty of time to study I hope I make it iv heard its extremely tough to get like less then 20% testers make it.
have any of you prior service guys or active guys done it whether a pass or fail attempted it at least?
