What are your general comments?
I thought it went pretty well. My essays made it pretty obvious why I want to be in the military, so I didn't field a lot of questions about that. The first interviewer (Army Lt. Col.) and I spoke about sports a lot, which he said was so I couldn't give him practiced answers. I thought that was pretty interesting.
