I just want to do what stated above in my first post, but its accesable in the army and that means i would get free training and health care and shit. but i do not wanna get switched out on and end up over seas shooting guns.
    Howdy Void,

    When I was 17,I put away my childish things..and I took an oath,before God,to defend,protect and preserve America,from all enemies,both foreign and domestic..at that moment-I was fully prepared in my mind,to fight to my last drop of blood,defending America,our citizen's and our allies. I joined the Navy..and the next thing I knew,I went from a sunny ,warm day in Texas,to a sub-freezing snowstorm at O'Hare airport. I was surrounded by yankee's..lol..but they did not deter me from fulfilling my goals.

    Be grateful,that we don't have the draft or mandatory military service,like Israel,be grateful that you still have the choice not to serve.

    Have a good one ! :jointsmile:

    I took the oath,
    drank foreign beer
    fucked foreign women
    beat up and got beat up by foreign men,
    ate foreign foreign food.
    was hated by many forigen people.
    came home,and went to school.

    To me the army is a stepping stone, if you need to get yourself out of a funk do it. But if you can save money otherwise, enjoy smoking pot, and hate being told what to do then don't go for it.
    Remember when you are in the army, you do in fact have a 9/5, you can change your 9/5, and it might be fun, but besides that, you will a have 24 hour 7 day a week job, you will never disapear off the grid (flying from japan to america they did an "eye scan" and i was already in the system,) you will always have to come home and if something needs to be done, and you can do it, you will do it, even if it means harm. forget personal safty, its always mission first.
    You up for that?

    Man I just wanted to do visual managment and get my college paid for and have some healthcare. Not kill anyone or get killed for some bullshit war I probably wouldn't even support.

    I think thats what any vet will tell you.

    You may go to become the prince of egypt.

    But there is a chance you'll end up killing or getting killed protecting people who are closer to you then family.

    fair trade to me, not to others. If you don't want to join the army then don't. i say its a good exp though. Oh and Wayoftheleaf, please give it up. You know nothing about army life, or andim willing to go out on a limb and say this; real life situations. Don't put down things you do not understand, isn't that the reason why us canna smokers get locked in cages?

    You're one of those people who needs to read more and write less. At least half the time when you make a statement, it's absolute baloney.

    Wars aren't how the world keeps population down, in case you didn't know that. Read the information below for a start.

    hmmm...

    i think there is something in the water because my husband is considering similar thoughts (goodness help me)...lemme tell you.....i wasnt in the army but i was an army wife, and it really takes a special person to make the choice to be a soldier....id like to say this doesnt seem like the best time to do so, but in reality, someone has to do it, and there never will be a "right time"....educationally, it is awesome and there are teriffic benefits...

    in the end, like anything else in your life, it can be what you make it...it would be a growth eperience like no other..

    according to my relatives who have been in the military those guys get very little respect from the other people because a lot of them dont feel that rotc people have earned it. just what i heard
