What are your thoughts on joining the military, Yas Forums?
And while I don't discredit your opinion if you have this at all, most of the time you guys are pretty level headed even when saying this, I'd prefer not to have this thread fall into solely 'don't die for the jews' tallk unless it's backed up with sources or personal experience. After all, not all roles in the army, navy or air force are frontline fighting, engineering etc has its uses.
Do we have any enlisted personnel here? What has your experience been like?
It's great if you want to be bossed around by retarded niggers.

Why become a military dog in the first place. Doing elite training dosen't make you immune to bullets
William Campbell
Also another question for pol/tards Is doing the Naval Academy/West Point worth it?
Ryder Howard
If you qualify, go for it.
Gavin Gutierrez
I was in the army and the navy. I'm glad I'm out now but I would do it again.
Isaac Barnes
I'm a USAF Officer, and former enlisted Army. I'll try to answer your questions. To be frank I don't have a ton of details about the UK side of things.
In the US, you are required by law to have a 4-yr degree (in whatever, for some jobs), in order to be a commissioned officer. Getting a slot of the street through OTS is actually harder than you think - so I would recommend... ROTC/Academies. In frankness, I banked a shitton of money in college because I had a fullride on ROTC, and then had pell grants and scholarships for grades. I think the last year of school I made 20k going to college. 15 before that, and 10 before, etc. It set me up for life. I'm 24, about to promote again. I make about ~82k a year. Within about 18 months, I'll be at 100. 25% of my income is untaxed. All my education is paid for.
Best gig I've ever had. Haters and inb4 "kike slave" can choke on my cut cock, I'm doing better than 97% of my age cohort mathematically. I'll take it.
Ethan Stewart
I served with the Parachute Regiment late 90s through to mid 2000. Good times. Try it and see user.
Cameron Sullivan
Why would you fight for a government that wants to exterminate your people?
It's a great option if you wanna learn combat skills. I'd suggest going for anything combat. If you're not joining to experience war or learn combat skills, you might as well just go to college or trade school for a civilian career.
Isaiah Hill
That's impressive user, I'm 27 and I only wish I had the foresight you did at that age. I've been working as a marketer and before that a professional chef, and it's been boring with little personal achievement to show for it, little prospects, little care. I was thinking of joining the Royal Air Force as an Intelligence Officer. In the UK you only need about the equivalent of two A Levels to join as an officer, which is much less than a full degree. I'm not sure why it's so much more open here.
Can you please talk a little bit about what your daily life is like, how much responsibility you have at the moment or what advice you'd give to a lad in his late 20's hoping to join? Or whatever you'd like to talk about of course. Thanks for your insight.
Elijah Evans
Depends on your country, if you are an American, don't, you'll be dying for a kike country, if you're from Eastern Europe or Northern Europe, go ahead, you're actually serving your nation.
Brandon Morales
Sure thing, I'll give you at least what I can.
In the army, it was a lot more down and dirty. Honestly even though I was reserves, the training was about 8 months long. I'd say it was okay, but at the end of the day, I wouldn't recommend being an enlisted member of any force *if* you can qualify for an officer slot.
My day to day life is a little wonk right now - I'm actually going to school fulltime for a Master's degree (like that's my actual assignment). As such, I'm not on a base, and I pretty much have full autonomy. Hell I haven't shaved in like 2 months. Haven't worn a Uni in 6 months. Uhhh but that's not typical though. Normally I'd be working 40-45 hours a week, doing cyber stuff (my job). It's pretty good.
Overall, I guess the most transferable thing I have is 1) Go for the officer life, if you can. Enlisting is not the worst thing you can do in the world, but man is it kush on this side. 2) Milk the FUCK out of them for any education you can. After you leave, the only thing you can assume you have to take with you is your experience, and you degrees. Anything you can put on paper and keep for the rest of your life is worth it's weight in gold. Intelligence work in the USAF is good (if long hours) but leads to great jobs afterwards. My buds in that department say they have enjoyed it.
Ur fuckin' retarded.
Ian Wood
Awesome, this has given me even more motivation to register my interest and start the application process. I'm just going balls deep in research now to figure out if it's what I really want, but so far it's looking very appealing. I'd assume that at 27 I'm going to make the decision to join now or never.
What masters are you studying, out of curiosity? No worries if you'd rather keep that secret. Also is Officer life really that much better? I'd intend to join as that as you suggest, but aside from responsibilities what difference have you noticed?
you make decent money, but it's like being trapped in a minimum security prison where partial lobotomies are mandatory and the warden is constantly mismanaging everything while simultaneously making your life miserable for no reason at all
and when you finally leave the prison after doing your time, you realize that the world moved on without you, and all the skills you learned in the joint aren't recognized, so you're struggling to play catch-up while people secretly judge you
Joshua Miller
depends what im fighting for
rounding up police and politicians sure
Liam Campbell
you are speaking only for yourself user 60-70% of american males are ok with dying for Israel 10-20% are passionate about it
Guy I'm fucking sitting in my basement making bank while playing vidya, you are literally so uneducated you don't comprehend the stupidity of what I'm trying to hammer into your skull.
Yeah OP this guy has a point. If you're gonna do something, make sure it has applicability on the outside. That's a big deal (No offense to you my blue-corded amigo). AF is probably the best bet, no idea how the UK racks and stacks though.
Computer Science. Usually they only front the bill for an advanced degree if it suits them - I got lucky in that regard as I already had my undergrad in that. It was moderately competitive but for people that wanted the opportunity, it was there.
James Anderson
At least you admit your point is a stupidity, I'll give you credit for that
Sebastian Morales
Bait elsewhere
Gavin Parker
Brilliant, thanks for the advice, and good luck with the rest of your studies. Sounds like you've really made something of yourself before you're 25, that's no mean feat.
Jacob Garcia
Out here trying -- good luck.
Brody Hill
dgghhh
Isaiah Hughes
You fell for it tough
Daniel Harris
I can see no worse way to throw away your life than to join an organization which exists to destroy life. Military, like police, are hired thugs and killers. However, I do not hate soldiers as much as I hate police. Soldiers are mostly just violent teenagers who didn't grow up in a healthy environment. Sorry, parents of soldiers, your kid wouldn't sign up to die if you gave them a happy life and you know it. Every person I know who entered the military did so either for the money or to "kill ragheads" (their words, not mine). They aren't well adjusted. They aren't decent people. These are folks who couldn't make it in the civilized world but who still feel indebted to it enough to become literal pawns in service of it. It's sad, really.

>my blue-corded amigo
i see you, battle
Cameron Taylor
Don't expect to be used in an efficient manner. I scored a 99 on my ASVAB and they made me a truck driver. They don't want smart people in positions that would be fitting to someone with any amount of intellect. They want you dumb blind and out of control in doing whatever you are told to do.
I'm also USAF reserves for cyber. Training sucked and took almost a year, but was able to get my degree at a top 10 comp sci school paid for after.
I would have stayed in and don't regret joining, but made way too much as a SDE at a FAANG company to give away my weekends for shitty pay. I left last year, and wow I'm banking 200k+ at 25 and WFH full time.
Met my best friend, and a few bros for life from my gig, and experiences I would have never otherwise have gotten so very much worth.
Robert Miller
> sign up to die > 150k of education, 2 degrees
pick one
> for the money
Gee wonder what else people "do for the money" everyday? Flip burgers? Monkey through excel spreadsheets? I hope you're trolling for your own sake christ.
Neat - 1B4 I take it? 3D?
Liam Sanders
I joined at 18 3DX02, thought about going 1B but would have had to swtich bases and re-school so not worth.
What are they sending you for a masters for? That seems like a sweet gig since all officers I met were glorified talkers not tech guys.
Cameron Wilson
I'd rather die than bomb and kill white and blue eyed children and women, an honorable death than murder my Aryan race.
>flip burgers Helps feed hungry people in your community. I flipped burgers for a few years and made great friends with locals. >Excel spreadsheets Has the potential to bring prosperity to large groups of people you work with, an honorable activity which improves your nation overall and exercises your mental acuity.
I have 3 degrees and no debt. Worked hard, got a pell grant, did what I could to be of service to those who needed it. Doing good in this world really does pay off over time. Now, the soldiers, they're not decent folks. They sign up to kill people for a living. Sure, it's a good amount of money. But if you're in it for the money, you're nothing more than a hired thug, an assassin, a mercenary working for the state, a worthless person whose skills can only bring about pain and suffering. Such people do not care to help others. They do not care to improve their communities -- they leave their communities and run off to the desert like cowards. They abandon their land, their people, all pretense of humanity and personal value, in exchange for the opportunity to murder for cash. I do not respect these "people". They'd be better off in orange than camo.
Josiah Gray
That's sick, good deal.
Uh yeah I'm doing AFIT/CI now - it was a call for 10 ROTC grads cross-country to do "STEM". I guess big blue wanted to look up and up on it. I really want to shred into 17S - hoping it works out. Honestly looking to get out at 6 or ASAP as well. Probably contracting or a Big-name if they're calling for clearances and Fed experience.
