He's probably anti-military from a moral standpoint. If you do join up a lot of people will be like "Fuck you you wear the jackboots of oppression". I wouldn't worry about it.

You going in as an officer or EL?
I'd only accept a commission in terms of value of risk to reward. Which means I have to be in the top 20 out of numerous applications as our OCS takes around 20 a year if any.

No, I'm not anti-military.

Just not a place where I would go back if I could make that decision by myself.

Hows that compare to enlisted pay?

That sucks. Though I think the US should have mandatory enlistment, but we actually pay you.
Well nowadays I don't hate that place so much anymore, at least it made me a bit more like a man. But no need to go back there. And no need for me to join the force permanently. So I know how to kill a man, don't see why I would voluntarily do it though. A war in the Middle East or wherever doesn't really affect me so I don't believe it's my war...or European's war. Not to even mention how much it is USA's war.

for once i agree with you
It only took 5 years. :weee:

A girl leaves you and you want to go live with an army full of cocks...sorry but I don't get it. And yes, I'm not a guy suited for army myself...I spent enough time in there already.

You guys are right, but..

Gotta be honest I seriously thought about joining Légion étrangère when my girl dumped me. Instead I've put my apartment up for sale and is going abroad. Which is kinda nice now that I've distanced myself a bit from my ex.

Besides I got a hot date with my Cabana Boy on the Seychelles :D

If I joined the Army, Marines, or Navy it would clear most of if not all of my debt for only a 4 year commitment. So it is tempting on some level. But you're right unless you're an officer they don't pay you much.

I think there's a little less shower rape in the military. Anyway that's a pretty loaded analysis don't you think?
