Hi, I’m Nick Paugam 👋
20-year Infantry NCO, combat deployments, and former Army recruiter. I started this 100% free group so future Soldiers and their parents or significant others can feel prepared for the journey on this path.
🎯 Who this is for
Teens/Adults (17-34) serious about joining the Army and parents who want straight answers, realistic expectations, and support along the way.
✔️ Inside you’ll get
- Plain-English prep for ASVAB, MEPS, Basic and your first unit
- Simple PT guidance so you ship in shape, not broken
- Checklists, timelines, and “what I wish I knew” lessons
- A safe place to ask questions and hear from others on the same path
- Ideas for smart questions to ask your local recruiter about policies and options
⚖️ Note
I share personal experience and opinions only. This isn’t official DoD/Army guidance and doesn’t replace your local recruiter.
