As most of you know, I’m new to this forum. While “snooping” around I noticed a lot of young people who have a desire to join the Armed Forces. I’ve always been interested in knowing why you want to join and why you are choosing the branch you are. However, I won’t ask you anything that I haven’t answered yet. It’s only fair.
I joined when I was 19. I previously was enrolled at University of Arkansas. Let’s just say I had a little too much fun. I lost my scholarship so I had to do something. My life was literally going down the drain. While walking through the mall one weekend, I found my answer, the United States Air Force.
I must admit I didn’t join to “serve” my country. I was greedy. I joined for the money. More specifically, I joined for the GI Bill. As time went on however, I realized there was a lot going on in this world. The world, as I once thought, did not revolve around my life. To make a long story short, I now sever for my COUNTRY!
Five years ago I made a life-altering decision. Turns out, it was the greatest decision of my life. I can’t begin to tell all of you young people out there the pride that will soon follow your enlistment/commission.
