For a young guy mulling over joining to go officer route what would be the best branch/role nowadays for a pede? I want to serve but I don’t want to find myself just enforcing globohomo abroad
Fly Navy. And you won’t escape the woke horseshit in military OR civilian world. Might as well have fun and smash your metal tailhook onto the metal deck and catch a metal cross deck pendant of a pitching deck somewhere in the South China Sea at 135 knots.
Haha! Exactly! I was looking into Space Force but it seems you have to enter it through the Air Force? It’s all confusing really. My great grandfather was a WW2 admiral so that is in the fam.
That helps BIG on your application. Honor Courage Committment are the anaby Core Values. Include them in the app along with what you learned from your military relatives (grandpa especially) and military family traditions and pride in country. Go down to the Navy office and ask to speak with Officer recruiter.... aviation if they have one. You will look for NRD in the Internet for the office. Keep trying, keep trying, keep trying. They put your name on a great pencil board and when a spot arrives, they will call the person who has been most vocal. You want to go to OCS (formerly AOCS) in Pensacola. The navy goes by demographics. Some months, they have spots for black females. Some months, white males. Sometimes one of each etc. If you are the persistent squeaky wheel, when your demographic appears as a “need” you will get the call. My recruiter literally called me in college (many moons ago) and said....”hey, we have a spot for a _____ _____ are you still interested?” I laughed and said yes!
