You dont need the military to do any of that. I say that as a veteran. If you're a pede, you'll stay out of the military unless you want to shoot your friends and family in the next ten years.

If you've ever memed a frog on social media, they'll turn you away for being a "potential domestic terrorist".

I dunno man. Were getting diversity bullshit shoved down our throats right now pretty hard.

If you do decide to join...go for a Ranger contract (as in 75th Ranger Regiment). That or 18x for SF. Otherwise dont bother.

Get some real skills that are useful in real life. All those homeless veterans in large cities should be a huge red flag for anyone considering joining the army.

Do you want to learn to be disciplined? Do you want to learn to defend yourself in all situations. Do you want respect from those around you? I have a nephew that went to the Naval Academy, and turned down a full scholarship to Northwestern. In nuclear sub training now. I can't say enough good about it.

The Army isn't the Navy.

Besides, only faggots join the Navy. When is your nephew going to come out of the closet?

Navy doesn't even give you firearms training in basic. So how are you supposed to learn to defend yourself again?

Literally everything you said can be learned and far better other places. The military doesn't teach you to defend yourself. YOU teach you to defend yourself. The military doesn't teach you respect. You teach you respect.

Making money .... not so much. It is a young man's profession, best of luck and God keep.

Aren't you too old?

There's an age cap for military service. Pretty sure you're up there in terms of joining the military if you've never been in before.

I remember we had a 30 year old in basic with us, and he seemed like a very old man at the time. That was 35 years ago for me. Who is old now?

No.

Get in shape.

Learn to use your firearms safely.

Travel domestic.

Join your local militia.

Or you could work out and join a police force. We need some MAGA cops...badly!

Yep! You won't regret it. You'll always know that you did your part and can hold your head up in the best of company. Army will work but choose the service that suits you best. Aim high, challenge yourself,

I don’t think it’s as easy to get a frontline combat position as they make it out to be. For every man in combat, there’s easily 4 or 5 men performing some sort of support role.

Yeah it is. Job positions are dependent on ASFAB scores for the Army. If you're a fucking retard, you'll be offered 11B (infantry). If you're off the charts smart, you can still go with 11B if you want.

You really want Biden to be able to order you around?

Because that's what that means.

And if you don't think he's not going to send people to Syria and the Middle East to die in the sands, you're a fucking idiot.
