Some people might no like this post too much especially on an army site! I was in the artillery for 4 years so I experience the ground forces and the navy (as a Naval weapons tech for 11 years). So I think I can say that I experience 2 side of the national defense. And the 3 one should also be mention... the air force. All of them have their advantages and disavantages.
Army; bad back, knee, anckle, away from familly, DISCIPLINE
Navy: same as above but with less discipline
Air force: what to say about them..........
What I am trying to say is when you go at the recruit center, the choice is yours. You can pick the element that you want (if it‘s open) and the trade (also if it‘s open) But think on a long terms. You might still be young and all primed on running in the woods and training all days but in 20 or more years when you will retire what do you have????
After working as a Weapons tech, I realize that this is the way to go! TECH TRADE, you learn something and you can use it when you retire...I am not telling you to go to the recruit center in the morning and join the Navy, but to pick a trade that you like and that you want to do for a long time. So that‘s all for now.
Good luck and I hope this help
