If you had the choice to join the United States Military right now.. would you?

AFwife

i would have joined the AF when i was 18 (i'm 26 now) but i didn't even think about it, i would join now but i married an airman and would get to see him even less if i joined, i would definately serve my country if they needed me though

NAVY DOC

well having done already retied as a navy combat medic with 1st Marines- 2 tours in Iraq and the gulf war. I would love to continue my career with the military. If i knew then what I know now, I would say yes I'd join. It was all a positive experience for me all 15 yrs.

renee s

No, I wouldn't put my life on the line to be disrespected, attacekd and assualted by people like Nancy Pelosi who I'm fighting for. Also, on the off chance Obama becmes President I wouldn't serve under him.

I joined the Air Force about two weeks ago. Now I'm waiting to go to bmt.

I, without hesitation would enlist. I have enjoyed safety, security and freedom because others have served and sacrificed for me and others. Call it repayment of a moral debt.

Tap Happy

I would, and here's my reasoning:
Pros:
I would get to handle weaponry on a regular basis
I would be taught how to defend myself
Discipline would be ingrained in my brain
I believe that I would enjoy it
Cons:
I wouldn't be able to pursue some of my hobbies
I wouldn't be able to keep my animals
I would have to put college plans on hold
I'd probably be infantry - something that I'd dislike
My parents would disown me.

I'd still do it. xD Only if it were Navy, though.

Yes, I regret that I didn't when I was young enough. I would love to now but am too old.

If lets say.. Russia, China, or both declared war on us right now, I would join. If there was a draft, I would accept it if I was called upon (regardless of the situation).

Space Cowboy

I recommend reading Mark Miller's six-issue comic "War Heroes" for a take on this. To sum up: enrollment is down, so the military decides to grant superpowers to every recruit. BTW, Millar is the writer of the movie "Wanted" with that skinny chick.

I think any one can join right now it is a question of rather they want too or not for me I am the wife of a soldier. we decided not to be in the military together for relationship reasons if we both deploy both of us would be stressed about eachother and if we ever had children our children would wind up in and out of families homes if we ever deployed both of us would never get to see eachother even if we were at home together so mabe later on after he gets out I can join up

MikeGolf

Nope.

I served in Central America in the 1980's - and the Democrats betrayed me for political gain.

I served in Iraq in 2004 - and the Democrats betrayed me for political gain.

At this point I no longer feel the American people are worth defending.

Missouri Patriot

We all "except one to old" can join the Military right now!

USMC WIFE

No, I would not. My husband would probably divorce me if I did (and rightfully so). He already serves and he believe it's the man's job to provide. I'll stay here, support him, be a good wife, and continue bringing in extra money with my business.

Brie in da LBC

Absolutely NOT!!! If McCain gets in office I get deployed to Iraq and if Obama gets in I go to Afganistan. This is not the time to join the military.
