Everyone thinks im crazy for joining the Army when i get out of HS. Im just getting pulled in two directions. What do you guys think i should do?

Tell "everyone" to go back to hippieland.

Just kidding .

If you really want to be in the military, go for it, it can't hurt you, and nobody is going to force you to re-up if you find it's not for you.
That being said, no one can make the decision for you, and it's hard to even advise someone on what you think is best for them without knowing them and their options pretty well.

But good luck with whatever you decide, if you get any specific questions, we have all kinds of experience here to help you out.

Welcome to the forum by the way.

Thanks man. I was thinking about trying to be a Ranger. Anyone here a ranger?

I am





























Well not really

Talk to RnderSafe

I want to join right out of HS as well, and i'm tryin' for Ranger too. Why do you want to be a Ranger? Have you thought about it much?

I thought about it a lot. I came up with thinking that I would rather die protecting my country then die a nobody.

Good answer... but you could join let's say the 10th Mountain and die for your country.

Why do you want to die at all?

I agree with RnderSafe. If u go into the military right after highschool, u will miss out on alot of experiences. Read my sig.
