Bluecat, the military is nothing you should hide from. Like Hydrizzle said, you still need to sign those papers before they have you. It really bothers me when i read posts like this. People who will serve or have served deserve your respect. When you make stupid threads like this, all youre doing is undermining our past, present and future soldiers. To anyone that thinks that the soldiers in iraq are fighting for a president get your head out of your ass. If you were to ask a soldier why they are fighting, 9 out of 10 of them will tell you that they fight for their buddys. The last thing on my mind in afghanistan was president fucking dick head bush. The main thing on my mind was my platoon and my own ass...the politics of it all fly out the window when shit hits the fan. I know this sounds alot like most of my posts in the political forum, but once again someone brings up this stupid ass topic and i feel inclined to stick up for MY army and MY friends. If you havent been there or done that, then honestly i think you should shut the hell up because you have no clue what the hell youre talking about.

Bottom line is, do your research before you talk to a recruiter if youre interested in joining. Know what MOS you want and dont forget to ask about the sign on bonus of that particular MOS. Use your head when dealing with recruiters dont be a douchebag and think they will give you the job you want...recruiters are always trying to recruit for MOS's that the army is short on and they will try to persuade you towards those careers. Know what you want to do and make them give you the job you want. Do research into the field you want, know what GT score that job requires etc. Just use your head.

According to an Army manual, savvy recruiters should eat in the school cafeteria, befriend administrators, bring coffee and donuts for teachers and buddy up to team captains and student body presidents to win the hearts Rating: 5
