I wish I had joined. When I got out of high school I figured they wouldn't take me for health reasons, never even tried. I wish now I had. It is an honor to serve your country. I figured the next best thing is being a firefighter or police officer, which I have been a firefighter now for 4 years. Like someone else said, 4 years seems like a long time but I graduated high school in 95 and I still know a lot of classmates who work at Wal Mart, and are waitresses and crap like that.

I am still young, but a wife, new baby, and mortgage prevents me from joining now. If I was going to join my choices would be - Marines(Infantry, if you're going to do it, do it right!), Army, Navy, then Air Force.

Good luck! Fireman
