    Default I am attempting to join the ARMY.

    I just took the ASVAB, and answered a bunch of invasive background questions. Wish me luck, I'm for real, I'm trying to join the ARMY. This is my best option for a decent career, so wish me luck, serious assholes. No I will not disclose any personal info. I believe America is a good country, and alot of countries would like to be in the situation we are in. There are alot of opportunities and social programs that you just wont find in other countries. I'm ready to serve and protect what I believe to be one of the best (if not best) countries in the world.

    Thumbs up Re: I am attempting to join the fucking ARMY.

    I Applaud you!

    But I'm curious, If you are looking for a great career, what pointed you in the direction of the Army as opposed to say Air-force, or Navy? Or is it an Army Career your looking for? I'm not saying the Army is not the best choice for you.

    Something to mull-over if you hadn't done so already. Take a look at where the biggest demand is and the projections for when you plan to leave the military. There are a lot of really big paying Government jobs that require security clearance USAJOBS - The Federal Government's Official Jobs Site You can prep your self for a very easy transition. Also note that there are a lot of low paying Jobs as well.

    Good luck!

    Can't fault anyone who is willing to fight for their country. I almost joined once, struggling to find work after I graduated uni, drunk in the middle of the day and thought I would be a good idea to sign up!

    Good job its a long process now as I would of been dishonourably discharged years ago!

    Went through with everything as I had made the mistake of telling my friends while I was still drunk, but failed my medical - slight hearing problem in my left year, thank fuck!

    I'm not in yet, I still have to get cleared, and pass my MEPS which I think shouldnt be a problem. I can do about 60-70 push ups(military style not girly style) and about 70+ sit ups, my weak spot is the running, which is right about at the cutoff point. I still have some time to improve on my 2 mile time. Thanks VictorCharlie, my Recruitment Officer has answered all my questions, just got see what jobs are available and sort it out from there. No, I wasn't drunk when I decided.

    That's nice. But before you leave tell your mom to buy herself a nice black dress and get ready for your funeral. I don't say this to be a prick, either. 22 year old half brother joined the Marines. 19 year old cousin joined the Army. Both came home in body bags. You might wanna reconsider. But Good luck anyway

    Sorry to hear that buddy. Unfortunately my mother and father have already passed away. I will however be taking the 400,000 dollar life insurance, which would go to my sister. She can buy a nice black dress and handle the funeral if that were to happen. Sheesh I knew I was going to regret posting this thread. Watch with my luck I dont get accepted, and then the real funny shit is going happen.

    Regret nothing about asking and delving into different perspectives. Rather hash it out prior then jump in clueless....or turn around 20 yrs from now and say woulda, coulda, shoulda. Be honest with yourself and family and the only thing worse then failure is not trying to succeed in the first place, and if that means joining or means you decide not to, its you who will have to live with it. Best of luck bud.

    Got to say its not totally the case to think Navy doesn't see frontlines as today your front line could be just driving down the road. My Father went in Navy way back rather then Marine or Reg Army and next thing he knew was flying dust off with both off the ship as a door gunner. Sometimes they grab the pieces where they fit then and now. Not to mention the EOD techs
