Once you finish boot why don't you go airborne. It will be easier right after boot than later on.
Now some serious advice, take it or leave it as you wish.
Don't bust a gut trying to max the first PT test. They are expecting you to progress as you go along. DO start running right now. Be able to run for at least 3 miles now, it will pay off at boot. Do build up your push ups and sit ups. Listen a lot, talk very little no matter how much you think you know now, what you know is either going to be wrong or out of date. Things that do not seem to make much sense at first should turn out to be rather sensible later on when you build more knowledge. There is an old axiom, sweating more in training means less bleeding in combat.
Do not try to be the top soldier and do not try to be the least soldier do learn to BE a soldier. Best of luck. You are joining a long and distinguished line of soldiers in service to the country.

good luck and thanks Junky... :salute

Should have went Artillery....King of Battle baby!!!!!
Genesis of the Field Artillery
In the beginning, there was chaos, and the chaos was the infantry, the queen of
battle. However, the queen was alone. And fear was with the infantry, so she
cried out unto the Lord saying, "Lord save me for I am afraid!"
And the Lord heard her grunts and set some of the infantry on beasts of burden,
and these he called the cavalry, and the cavalry became armor. And when the Lord
saw what he had done, he laughed saying, "Well, you can't win them all!"
As time passed, the infantry and the armor again cried out unto the Lord saying,
"Lord save us, for we are afraid." The Lord heard their cries and decided to end
their weepings.
The Lord said unto them, "I shall send unto you a race of men noble in heart and
spirit." And the Lord created the Field Artillery, and named them the King of
Battle.
And the Lord said unto the infantry and armor, "When it is dark, the King shall
light your way. And when you need smoke, there shall be smoke, and when you need
it to rain down death and destruction upon the enemy, you shall have it."
And the Lord gave the King big guns and big bullets. And the infantry and armor
were jealous, for they had not. And the Lord gave the artillery rockets and
missiles and nukes. And when the infantry and armor saw this, they fell to their
knees in awesome wonder, saying surely the Lord is on the side of the artillery,
the King of Battle.
And the Lord said, "CHECK!"
And abideth infantry, armor and artillery, but the greatest of these is the
ARTILLERY.

Anouther favorite of mine
I Am the Field Artillery
by John J. McMahon and Patricia S. Hollis
I am the United States Field Artillery. I fly the skies with my light forces, sail the sea with my Marines and pound the ground with my heavy forces. I see with satellites, touch with my terrible thunder and taste the sweet glory of victory. I am everywhere-mobile, agile and lethal. I Deal in Steel.
I was born of necessity in 1775 when the British fired upon our militia at Lexington and Concord. My six-pounder cannons were captured field pieces, drawn by oxen from battlefield to battlefield. I crossed the Delaware River with Washington on Durham boats and wintered at Valley Forge. At the moment of victory at Yorktown, it was I who fired the decisive rounds. I am Firepower for Freedom.
I was called to defeat the British again in 1812. I fired for the charge at Chippewa, out-dueling the Royal Artillery and carrying the day. I was there at the Battle of New Orleans with my lethal lanyards pulling devastation down on our enemy. Then in 1846, I stood fast against the superior forces of Santa Anna. The Mexicans came close enough to smell the smoke of my cannons and feel the deadly sting of my "grape" as my Flying Artillery bombarded the battlefield. I Rule with Thundering Steel.
And then in 1861, with my muzzle-loaded guns and my observers positioned by my side, I saw us torn apart by the War Between the States. I was there on both sides with the Blue and the Gray. My fires decided victory at Malvern Hill, Antietam, Shiloh, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. I am Mind-Numbing, Bone-Shattering Savagery.
I was part of the American Expeditionary Force that, under General Black Jack Pershing, helped defeat the Kaiser and the German Army in 1918. I had larger cannons, but my main arm was the French 75-mm gun drawn into battle position by horses. As World War II approached and the forces I fired for became more mobile, I moved by trucks and became armored Field Artillery. With my Priest 105-mm self-propelled howitzer and my observers forward with the tankers and infantrymen, I adjusted my ferocious fires for our forces. I massed fires by battery, battalion, Div Arty and even dealt my death by corps artillery. I am the Greatest Killer on the Battlefield.
I was there in the mountains of Korea and jungles of Vietnam. From Pusan and Inchon north to the Yalu, the pounding of my 155-mm towed guns helped bring about the Peace Accord at Panmunjom in 1953. In fire bases in Vietnam and with my airmobile firepower, it was I who brought howitzer hell to the enemy for our maneuver forces, using my multiple field pieces-105, 155, 175 and 203. I am Death on Call.
I was there for the Cold War as America stood her ground for international democracy. I gave her my Lance and then the mighty Pershing missile, which forced our opponents to the negotiating table. Though I never fired a missile in anger, my Pershing Peacemaker was strategic. I am Persuasive Power for Peace.
And I'll be there when you need me. I am ubiquitous on the battlefield. I can focus my firepower like a flashlight beam, raining death and destruction down upon our foe. My "rockets red glare" is now white-hot from six-packs of steel-rapid, far-reaching and awesome. The autonomous actions of my howitzers can shell out hell to bring our enemy to his knees. And when I'm done, he'll bow before me because -- I am and always will be The King of Battle.

Have fun in Fayettenam. I'm just up a ways in Raleigh. If they give you a little time (which I have no idea if they will of not) and you need to get an AH fix let me know, we could throw back some cold ones and after some flying hit a bar or something.
Safe travels!
