@GreenDewd You might what to re read what you wrote you said 10 miles in under fifty mintues that would be under 5 minute miles for 10 miles straight which is impossible for even an olmypian.

Awesome. My granfather was a cop in the italian army. cool

@GreenDewd 10 miles in 50 minutes? idk about that. but i have had the same thought as you. marines or army??? im 17 and will be enlisting this coming febuary. im gonna do the marines because i want to do infantry. i feel that if you want to do infantry, go into the marines. you will want the most training possible when the bullets fly. but for something like combat engineering. id go army because of a bigger budget, so you will have more money to do the things you need to.

@GreenDewd I do not believe that the ultimate decision is theirs. You need to respect your parents, and listen to the reasons why they wouldn't want you to join, but the decision will be yours in the end. Also, it is very true that any job in the military has the risk of paying the ultimate price, but the things you will learn from it will easily outweigh the risk and will set you up for success in the rest of your life. Any branch is honorable, but I'm biased and would say Semper Fi. Good Luck.

@GreenDewd id choose marines because i feel that you feel better to call yourself a marine not a army man or whatever. thats my opinion good luck choosing the right choice for you

@GreenDewd You know what kid your parents aren't going to like it anyway you put it to them. It's your choice not theirs they're telling you their opinions. If you're as strong as you say you are than go to college, do ROTC, and become an officer.

I'm a Marine and my biased opinion is obvious. But just see which one is fit for you Army or Marines, or neither, but its your choice. The internet is filled with info.

Hi. i am 15 and i am going to enlist when i am 18. But i cant choose between Marines or Army. I am in the highest shape, i can run 10 miles under 50 Minutes i am strong i can bench press 230 and i have very strong legs. But the problem is, my parents hate the military ever since my uncle was K.I.A in Baghdad. So i can decide whether or not to join.
