Anyone know pros/cons of navy, air force, army, or marines? I'm interested into joining one of them.

Pros you get to do something good for your country and you become more stronger than an average person

Cons: I've seen pics of people with their faces all deformed from bombs and some faces were litterly skeletons, if i posted the pics I would get modded thats how bad it is and your still alive.

Con....War sucks, officers suck, and civilians can be a pain in the ass.

wow.. i have to say i agree with you..

That means only one thing....................(or your just really smart and understand complex situations without ever experiencing the situation)

(which might mean that it only means one of two things)

(but actually, it could mean both things)

(wait, can there be more things?)

what was that all about?

Pros: they pay for all or part of your college education, employers love armed forces guys, , chicks love armed forces guys, get in great shape.
Cons: You're essentially the government's **** lack of freedom, lots of responsibility, no way to get out of commitments (with few exceptions)
etc., etc., etc.

I did my mile in around 7-7 1/2 mins. before I stopped playing baseball and basketball. I think I run it in like 8 1/2-9 mins. now.

I can do it faster though. That was after not doing anything really physical for two years, so I'd say I impressed myself at taht.

Your in Combat engineers right? My dad says if I'm serious about being a Marine then I should go in a combat unit because he said that in Supply things would get slow.

I geuss I'd want to be infantry, or Combat engineers, or be in a weapons platoon, they're cool.
