*sad*

That's the first thing I'm going to when I go back to US

to do*

If a kind soul help me with this, I'll be grateful

Start a gofundme

^^ I'd help but im barely making ends meet

@Sir Harndes i can help you later on not fuck up your life by doing a stupid job

Lol I mean, helping me taking a screenshot in a website

now i am going to bed but tmr or after

at least in the army

i have a lot of decent info on life for various MOSs

also don't do corpsman

they all hate their lives right now

because none of them can promote at all

I laughed

too many kids go in with no clue of what's going on

and then hate it

So i should take a MOS that help after the army

well that depends

you get free college after anyways

But a the same time I don't want to br a pog

so you could do something cool in the army and go do your useful shit in college

that's what a lot of guys i hang around did

Geez I shet myself hahahahahahahaha

i personally subscribe to that theory but it's not wartime anymore so i wouldn't recommend infantry

"That's what a lot of guys i hang around died"

well some of them are dead too

there is that

I was like "DAMNNNN NI🅱️🅱️A"

but yeah this is a thing i will elaborate on tomorrow because i'm tired as shit

and going to sleep

Alrighty then

Goodnight, Irene

Lol

Never heard it before

@Sir Harndes if you want to join the military but don't want to be a pog, combat support is probably right up your alley. I mean, depending on who you ask, it's still technically pog, but if you get an MOS involving shit like driving a tank, you may very well see combat. But the Army will limit that chance, so if you wanna see some shit, Marines would probably be more likely to. Idk though I'm talkin out my ass really. This is just my logical reasoning and speculation

You guys see the video I dropped today

Which one

I watch a lot of vids

War wave one

Link?

It's in war wave channel

Edgy

Worth it

@AKAlexei I really don't know. I want to join the army to do things you'll never be able to do in a civilian life, but most people say to not join any combat MOS 'cause you'll never find a job, it sucks and yadda yadda. At the same time, they say to get a good pog job to get in a civilian life, butIf I really wanted to just sit my ass in an office, I wouldn't be joining thr army, tbh

Some things just pisses me off

Sorry if I was rude or something

Nah, no need to apologize man, I'm just offering advice. I'm just recommending against infantry because... well... it's the poor, bloody infantry. As for jobs after the military? Bruh, this economy is gonna crash within the next couple years. Might as well start some kind of business providing a product or service that's super necessary. Also, while you're in, get a degree or trade cert or something, don't walk away empty handed

My recommendation against the army comes from a slight bias I have towards it because I've heard shitty things from vets

Lot of em have said that the Army won't do shit for you

But then again, I've heard similar shit from Marines

Seems to me experience is relative

I can tell you that when you got dudes getting out of the Army and in the Army making memes about how the Army won't do shit for you after you get out, something's up. Sounds thin af, I know, but memes are like modern art; often a reflection of reality

Well

Thought about joining the Navy for some good years

Problem

I don't like sea

Nothing I can't get used

But I always wanted to get a combat MOS

If that's really what you want, go for it. But if I were you, I'd go Marines for that. The training is tough, but it's worth it. Every Marine, first and foremost is a rifleman, no exceptions. The process is simpler to understand too

I see there's no combat MOS that won't fuck your life pretty good, so It gets complicated

Also, a bonus with the Marines? Mostly coastal bases and bases in cool locations

With the Army you can end up in the middle of bum fuck nowhere

Or worse... Alabama

But looks like it has the same problems as the army

@Trash Squid

They wont do shit for me

OMG! Dude, do the co-host for that!!!

Like degrees, civilian jobs and all

Well, Marine Corps takes care of its own, and there is an unrivaled sense of brotherhood

And it doesn't matter what branch you join, all branches offer the same college shit

The Air Force only has the benefit of having its MOS school being it's own community college, so basically you just get a useless degree in whatever the fuck your MOS is

At least that's what I recall from interviewing with the guy

The Air Force like to act like they're the real academics of the bunch but the truth is they just have a shitload of money and a pipeline to working for defense contractors

They handle alien shit but you gotta do some really long term stuff to even get near that

Yeah, my stepsister is in the Air Force

Dunno if she still there,

But didn't get well thr part you said abou the marines college degree 'n sheit

Well, I interviewed with all the branches except coast guard, right?

So here's the thing

The Marine Corps, Army, Navy, and Air Force all offer the exact same amounts of tuition assistance for both active duty and reserves. There is no difference whatsoever in terms of money. The Air Force is often characterized especially in the Civilian world as being the most well educated, but the truth is, (and this is assuming I'm remembering what their recruiter told me correctly) the only extra benefit that the AF offers is that their MOS schools are technically all under the umbrella of the Air Force's own registered community college.

So basically, with the Air Force, you can get a degree out of your MOS training, but it's pretty much worthless

Unless you really intend to transfer your military career into the world. Example; the recruiter I spoke to had a degree from the AF community college in transportation... he even told me that it was nothing more than something to stack on his resume

In truth, all branches offer the same shit though; in all branches (except for Coast Guard which I won't speak on cuz I didn't talk to them), you have the same amount of money offered in tuition assistance, same amount offered for both reserves and active duty, your MOS training can be used to cut out courses from your degree (basic training also has this benefit), etc. It's all the same. No one branch offers more than another when it comes to education

Now, your MOS field choice and assignment might make your ability to go to school more or less difficult. Example; you're more likely to have more time to throw down some time for online courses or even in classroom courses if you're working a POG job than you would infantry

That's also why I recommended combat support MOS' because in the Marines, that field consists of three potential job assignments, one of which doesn't exist anymore but they keep on in case SHTF and we gotta go old school (anti-aircraft). So really, I'm left with either being in artillery or tank & amphibious assault vehicle, and last I checked, we haven't had a tank battle since Iraq and we haven't had an amphibious landing in quite awhile. So I figure I'll be able to throw down time for school

Well

That's a lot of info

I know which is why I'm gonna offer you one more piece of advice

Here's what you should really do

Start by sitting down and figuring out a series of questions to ask recruiters. Then, take a couple days to go interview with all the branches. We can sit and talk about the pros and cons of each branch on here all night, but I'm not a recruiter and can't answer all the questions because I honestly don't know all the answers lol for real, go interview with all of them, even if you have zero intention of joining the one you interview with

The only branch I don't recommend bothering with is CG just because they're under State Department and not DoD; that means no pay during government shutdowns and regardless of what y'all think of Trump, I think we can all agree that his administration has had way too many shutdowns. I just wouldn't bother even considering a branch where you could potentially have to wait two or three months or however long the shutdown is for back pay to kick in

That's what happened to a lot of those guys during the last shutdown.
