Not trying to start a fire or anything, but You all say that stuff and then wonder why they keep talking about another draft. The military life is not bad at all. It is what you make of it. I live in Rhode island in a 3 bedroom 1300 square foot house. and make 36000 a year, free medical, Dental, Tuition assistance, I can go on and on. I mean Yeah you might have to go to Kuait, afganistan, etc. But I look at it this way.....I will be 39 when I retire. then i can get another job, retire again and then at 59.5 years old collect 2 retirement checks and my Roth ira. So yeah It looks pretty good to me. BTW I am a Navy corpsman.

Not trying to start a fire It looks like you registered just to promote your job. Good for you, I hope they pay you well for what you do. I vote ban/delete/fuckoff. Sorry for my negative attitude, I didn't need that this early in the morning.

And in trade for all of this, you are a numbered "tool" of the government. The fact is, when you retire you will HAVE TO get another job, cause you'll be poor trying to live off of what they give you.
If it's for you, it's for you, but the flowers aren't as nice once you get there.

I realize this, But hey someone has to do it. I will say it is not for everyone. I didn't think it was for me but I still tried and now I like it. And at age 39 why not get another job delivering mail or something. I do appreciate your input though.
