I've considered it and was planning on joining either the Army Reserve or the Army National Guard, but lately I've come to the conclusion that I don't want to die for this country over a poitnless war. If we weren't in a war right now I would lean more towards it, but the risk is too high and you only live once.

I'd take being called a nerd over getting shot at any day.

It's nowhere near as bad as the News makes it seem. Yeah it's dangerous but personally I think the conflict in Northern Ireland was bad, or even walking around in Saint Louis is probably worse. For the most part, the biggest threats are roadside bombs.

In that case, I'd take being called a nerd over getting blown up.

C'mon, don't be a chicken; you wont even know if you run over a roadside bomb, it will be over in a flash.

I'd rather be a live chicken than a dead soldier.

Just sit at the back of the truck lol...
Better yet, I'll shoot myself in the leg so I won't have to go at all! :D

WOW... You really don't want to be in the army :lol:
You stab your self in the leg like in Platoon, that way it seems legit. :wink:

When you think about it, stabbing yourself in the leg is manlier than going into the military.
It takes some major grapefruits.

Nice to meet a fellow soldier. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.
That attitudes not very conducive to world peace. What if war was declared, but every single person was AWOL?
If you think that there won't be anymore school fights in the future, then I can see your point.

If you are stressed enough and desperately don't want to go into a warzone then trust me you will do it given enough thought. You just have to make sure it's deep enough. Personally I wouldn't mind the combat so long as I don't get maimed.

Or maybe I could just violate the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy and save myself a world of hurt.
But it wouldn't be as manly. :(

Yeah, you would be disgraced pretty badly by that. I have a DVD about this kind of stuff somewhere... I think it's called Tigerland or something. A guy trying to get other guys out of the army before their training finishes and they get shipped off to viet nam.
You dont have to stab yourself to get out. Just feel up your commanding officer and hit on him. Guaranteed to get you out.Bestbuysux
That depends how good he looks.

You could actually provoke him to get worse with you, or just transfer you. The worst outcome I can think of is him enjoying it and you ending up in a whole new depth of a situation.
Too risky.

I don't have a clue as to what you two are talking about.
