waber

My name is john waaber, I was born in wake, NC, where I was raised up to the age around 5 or 6. I am the 2nd oldest out of 8 children and I had both of my parents through most of my life. I grew up in the country so most of my hobbies and activities were out door like sports, fishing, and just playing in the woods. After living in the country part of my life I moved to the city,beauford, SC, where I got mixed in with a bad crowd and starting getting in a lot of trouble, so through years of getting in trouble my mom moved us to a small town calledashwhere I also spent part of my life when my mom and dad lived with my grandparents.

I didn’t like the town and school I was at so I got in to trouble my whole freshman year of high school and ended up having to change the way I acted because of I bad situation that I had gotten into. So I started getting into the sports my sophomore year and ended up excelling in Wrestling and Track. My senior year came rolling around and I had to make up my mind up of what I wanted to do after I graduated. My first option was to go to college and either wrestle or run track, my senior year was coming to an end and I didn’t see any scholarships coming in so decided to join the army just to have something to do, but later after I joined all of my scholarship offers came rolling in for both track and wrestling, so I was upset, but I couldn’t do anything about it because I was already in so that’s how I got here, but I really don’t have any long term goals for the army, nut my short term goals are to make money for 3 years that I am in, hurry up and get done with my 3 years, and to get out and get back to my civilian life!
