Are you in the armed forces? What country do you serve in? What Branch? We want to here from you, tell us your experience in the military!

As for me, Im not old enough yet to join, but after collage Id like to get invloved in the US military's Phycological Operations or Civil Affairs. If you have any experience in these units, I would love to have you to share your story!

ROTC MSIV Cadet in the Surfrider Battalion out of the University of California, Santa Barbara

So I'm pretty much nothing, but I get my commison as a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Army next year, and unless they decide they hate me, I'm going to be branched to Armored and get with a Cavalry unit. Doesn't really use either of my majors much (history and general biology) but screw it, I get to blow stuff up. Yeah, we're all hoping I get a burst of maturity before I get put in command of a platoon of M1A2s.

Just a Junior in High School right now. Intending on enlisting right into the Army after high school, Airborne/Air Assault infantry, Rangers, that kind of thing. West Point looks like a very interesting prospect indeed, depends on how much ass I'm gonna have to kiss to get brass.

I used to think about wanting to go to the point, but now I think Im more toward ROTC, it just adds alot more flexibility. I'll probobly end up going to either Catholic U or American cause I live near DC.
