@briell236 You should seriously work on your grammar first because I can't understand that shit. Anyways, if you really want to join the Army go ahead your friends should respect your choice. I want to join the Army and my friends don't want me to join, but if you know anything about the Army, you tell your pussy friends that there's jobs in the military other then infantry, cavalry, etc. So hope you choose to join if you really want to hooah.

I'm putting this question out here cuz I really need advise. Ok so my friends r trying to stop me from joining cuz they think I'm going to die and they always get mad at me cuz I live by the solders creed, army values, and warrior ethos can anyone give me advise on what to do cuz I don't want to give up my dream but I don't want to lose the people I love because of my dream?

Plz anyone!!

[BournePhenom]

Reception is the most horrible thing ever. It sucks worse than actual training, but once you get through it, training goes by very quickly. You'll be getting your blue cord before you know it.

@Metal4TheHungry my recruiter said the same thing, said its just alot of waiting, testing, shots, and instruction
