Sounds like a sweet deal. Get trained to kill people who want to kill you for being in there country for some bullsh#t reason. NO THANKS.
This is a car forum, lets keep it at that and not a recruiting tool. Its bad enough that i get phone calls from you guys through school, now your on I-club.

Lets not everyone be a hater. True this is a car forum and not the place for the military and politics but to stereo type the military in general is wrong.
Ive been in intelligence for 3 1/2 years, own a house, 06 sti, beautiful wife, and everything I could ever want! Back to the cars now

This is going to get ugly. OP, please consider you're posting to a lot of young minds who are influenced by the local knee jerk, idealistic view of the world. Not much good can come of this thread.

If i were going to the war, i'd join the Marines, not the Army. Why would i put my life in the hands of fellow 'soldiers' that only enlisted because of the bonuses. ****ing rediculous.
