Job training , money for colloege , respect , sense of pride , ect .


If you want to join and get some good training and serve the country, and get some money for school then I'm all for it! You sound like you know what you are getting yourself into, and have the right reasons.

If anyone is serious about joining any of our armed services from border patrol to coast guard, to the military....all the information you ever need is out there...all you have to do is look, and talk to people! You can talk to recruiters because though they can sugar coat some things, they are the people who process your initial paperwork, but there are many of other soldiers who can answer your questions...I know myself, and quite a few other IA members who have served can answer your questions, but before asking....do a little footwork first and find the answers for yourself, because that's an adult should do anyways.

everyone needs to get out of the mindset that everyone in the marines is a killer, everyone in the air force flies an fighter, everyone in the navy is gay, and everyone in the army is a bullet catcher....
