I was wondering how many people here are in the military. One of my members (I don't have him listed yet) is going into the Air Force. Military people are awesome, that's why I'll be one someday. Navy SEALs all the way!

My father is in the Air Force. Right now he is a Lt. Colonel, and the squadron commander, for the 607th AIS (Air intelligence Squadron) here at Osan AFB in South Korea. So right now he works with lots of U2s and other spy equpiment to see what the Commies up North are up to. :)

He went to the Air Force Academy, and I want to go also, but he's super smart, and I'm, well, a little above average. ;) Right now i'm fourteen and waiting to (Wanting to more like) go there.

PS. In my life I have lived a total of EIGHT PLACES IN FOURTEEN YEARS. :] In order (England, Texas, New Mexico, Idaho,
Germany<-----[my favorite so far] Alabama, Virginia, and South Korea! I move in one year and i will probably go to Hawaii!! YAY ME! :D

Yay Military! Rock on!

My friend is in the TA (a really crappy pseudo-military organisation in the UK). He's just been sent to Iraq.

My cousin is a 1st Lieutenant in the Marines. She was in Iraq for about 6 months, most of them spent in Fallujah. My friend Ben is also joining the Army. I, for one, have no intention of ever joining the Armed Forces because, well, I don't want to get shot or exploded.

I am going to go to the Navy Academy, hopefully. Then Navy SEALs. That is awsome that your dad went to the Air Force Academy. It is the hardest miliitary academy to get into. One of my parents friends is a retired Air Force test pilot. He used to be one of the top 5 or maybe top 10 anyway he was one of the best pilots in the military. Probaly it was top 5 in the Air Force. Also that guy's dad, I knew him too but he died recently, created and oragnized the whole idea of using helicopters in Vietnam, without him our troops would have been trecking all over through 'Nam. I know some Navy SEALs, actually I am going to go tandem jumping with them. (It is parachuting freefall, but he is in control and I am strapped to him) I also know ppl from the marnes and army.

Yes lots of my family have been in the Military. My Dad who is a squadron Comander (see above post), my grandfather who was a tank commander, my great grandfather who served in the Pacific (WWII) and brought back a jap samuri sword and rifle :), and my uncle, who was an Army Ranger, He plays Halo with me now. :D There are many more but I am too tired to write them.

Both of my cousins are in the US army. I'm thinking about either going Marines or Army.

my life is my own.


join the military and your life is no longer your own.


Do you remember that woman who was whining and complaining that she "might" have to go to Iraq when the war was first starting... It's like, give me a break, you take advantage of the military benifits, college, health benifits etc... and then when it is time to do the job you signed up for it like... "I Didn't know i might have to go fight????"

Idiots.

Hey Lady, Your life is NOT yours, you joined the military, and no one twisted your arm.

My life is my own.

Thats your opinion but I would rather die fighting with honor, then be a coward and die in my living room.

I would maybe want to go into the armed forces (it would be more exciting than living a boring life), but I can't for a reason I won't say because it would take this thread in a direction I don't wish it to go and I might get flamed for it (it is related to the limited rights you have when you join the armed forces, like klurejr said). I wouldn't care about dying, because death awaits us all and dying in battle is better than dying in bed at age 86 (in my oppinion).
