STICKY REQUEST!

We get asked a lot of questions on this forum....the same questions over and over again. Questions like--
What service is best for me?
What are the pay and benefits?
How should I approach the recruiter?
What's this ASVAB thing?
Am I qualified for service due to _______?
Can I get into special forces?

And the list goes on. MOST of these questions can be answered here in a three page article (with links to various other topics and more articles). The article is called-- What the Recruiter Never Told You

Great idea patoloco


Count it the greatest sin to prefer life to honor, and for the sake of living to lose what makes it worth living.

"Fully 40 percent of recruits who enlist in the military today will not complete their full term of service."

That number has never been accurate. As far back as the late 70's a screening score was used to determine an applicants chances of completing a first term - no group of circumstances provided a less than 70% chance of completing a first term - the numbers of people in those high risk categories were/are restricted from joining.
