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
