Anyone in the service..?

[hyphy in my nikes]

Its toward the end of my days left as a civillian as I will be shipping to boat camp in Fort Bragg, Georgia for training as an infantry soldier a week aftergraduation.

Am I making the worst mistake of my life and anyone in the same shoes?

 

[thagreatj]

why the heck would you pick infantry?
bad score on the ASVAB?
i think if you are gonna go in the military, you should attempt to get an MOS that pays well outside the military.

Good Luck and God Bless. I mean that, it takes a lot to give up your life for a country (....) .

 

[hyphy in my nikes]

on the ASVAB I got a 70.. not to bad. I qualified for alot of jobs actually. I always wanted to be a soldier, I didn't consider any other MOS.

 

[bbanks707]

Am I making the worst mistake of my life
Yes, because your joining the army . . .

i looked at it as a job. i never saw myself going into the military when i was younger. i used it as a stepping stone to something else. so to answer yourquestion, i didn't NOT like it, i just didn't love it either………..i guess you could say i was impartial.

Any of you guys join up after being out of school for a few years?

 

[ninjallamafromhell]

Have fun over there, you should be one year in one year out at least. Multiple deployments are in your future.

 

[ca5perrr]

^^^one year LOL. all army deployments are 15 month at least.

infantry ??? wtfffffff is wrong wit u ? u got a 70 in ur asvab, get a real job, one that can prepare u towards the future,something along the lines of what youlike. infantry you will be running and doing pt none stop, deploying none stop and even ur basic is gonna be worse than normal basic.

ive worked with the army most of my enlistment, deployed it the army to afghanistan, ate shhht with the army. and they were all intel, stilll got treated likepoop.
been in the airforce almost 6 yrs now, almost done. intel , done pretty much everything around intel there is to do.
its not too late, i would join the airforce if i was u, like ur weekends and freedom ? airforce or navy.
if feel like wanna make a difference and save the world and be all tough, just chill, can always cross train, the army has 2 yrs contracts too,
ur recruiter is full of crap, dont believe what they say, there's a waiver for everything, if ur pee is hot theyll get the pills, its up to bro, im notbtching im just telling you the truth.

this is what i got to say from when i been in, ive had friends be like man i wanna make a diff, i wanna be a hero, they join the army and are like damn imessed up.
alot of the war is fought back home, believe or not, u dont have to be infantry to do soemthing, if thats why u wanna join.

this is just my pov.

mp is the job u get if eveyrthing else isnt available, it could be just as bad as infantry, work wise, youll be working long hours. i mean if u wanna be inthe military and wanna be a cop, coo do it, but alot of people just end up with it and hate it

 

[jayadict92]

u got a 70 in ur asvab, get a real job,


i got an 89 and i chose artillery. that isn't a "real job". i hear the unit in my state is fun.

Have fun over there, you should be one year in one year out at least. Multiple deployments are in your future.


I will, thank you.

Bringing home tens-of-thousands with no taxes sounds great to me. Killing some enemies..let's go, word to cod4. And if I die...whocares? existentialist baby.
