So right now I'm in my freshman year of college, but I'm really thinking hard about enlisting (not necessarily right now, maybe after the first year or first semester). It is a pretty lefty college but no obnoxiously so, and my classmates and professors are all pretty cool. Social distancing is a pain but I can't do anything about that and complaining won't help. It's just the whole thing feels so unfulfilling, and I was already planning on enlisting after college, so why not start now? Why take 4 years of college I don't really want and probably won't use?

At this point I'm still just thinking about it. I've always felt drawn towards service, whether military or law enforcement, so I know that is the field I am going into. It's just a question of now or later. If there are any military pedes out there, I would love some advice!
