rd, which branch would you recommend? between Army and Navy? based on tuition assistance and job opportunities? I'm pretty sure I could get a good job. the army recruiter even gave me a code: 68X (Mental Health Services). Navy would be less training, supposedly, and closer to home, but i'd have...

I think that's just bachelors degree level education. I highly doubt that they'd offer graduate studies in the field I majored in in undergrad. I'll double check that. I was also told that the Air Force is the only military branch that offers tuition assistance for grad school, but that it...

that's fucking hilarious. yeah, i think the main motivation here for me would be training/certification in the field I majored in in college, and the pay for training and reserve service on the weekends and my 2 weeks/year. Sounds like I should just stick to what I know and gain the professional...

how long after your service did you go to school? And how much did you make while in active service? do you get paid more in the air force than the navy or the army? which branch pays the most?

the Navy recruiter told me you only have to pass boot camp with a class 3 swimer grade...he said you just need to be able to float, tread water, and swim halfway across the pool. i could also possibly get a waiver to join the Air Force-recruiter said I'd have to write a "sorry letter" about it...

So, what do they make you do in boot camp? what kind of exercises, and are your drill sgts up in your face shouting at you and making you do pushups and shit? Are there any weird military hazing rituals I should know about, or things to watch for on my first few days?

Yeah, the first military recruiter I spoke with-Navy rep-actually outright asked me if I've ever used any illegal drugs. I said no, of course, and he fucking pressed the issue. "Never smoked any...never popped a..." I was like, "No, absolutely not, Sir." I have so many questions. I just...

oh, btw, which branch is the easiest? I heard its the air force, because their basic training is the shortest.

oorah! my younger sister is/was a marine. i was also thinking about that branch-what kind of score do you have to get on the ASVAB to be a marine? I was hesitant about that branch because I read that the army and the marines are the branches that get deployed the most. That's why I'm thinking...

come on, somebody give me some lowdown on what it's really like to be in the military? Do they really give you all the money and tuition assistance they promise? I know it depends on the work you do in the reserves, but...please advice

what do you mean 'nobody eats or sleeps in boot'? have you been in the army?

you talking about during bootcamp? or during a-school training?

I am thinking about joining the military. possibly army or navy reserves, depending on which MOS I can get, and who gives me the best deal. Any advice, suggestions? Anyone on here ever been in the military? What were your experiences?
