i believe EVERYONE should serve there country! i was in the US ARMY and im going to be re enlisting again because of the great exp. i got out of being there. you get to see things and do things you wouldn't imagine. so idk maybe its just me but i believe you should atleast try it once and if you don't like it just leave. never hurt to try someone that might better your furture.

Do whatever it takes to have a good life. Im joining the US Army as soon as im out of High School.

After a few years I had the opportunity to become "SLA" which means (Translated) "Shooter" (Long Range)
It's not exactly a Sniper but damn close to it.

With this function I went on a 4 month long tour to Afghanistan in 2008....
Here we went on alot of missions along side with Britain's Royal Marine Commando's and with the American/Australian Special Forces.
Seen alot on this tour .... Had alot of IED strikes where our platoon hit one on September 7th 2008 where we had 5 wounded and 1 killed in action.

After this tour I slowly climbed through some ranks and currently I'm Corporal First Class with the function of Vehicle Commander of our new APC:

CV9035

Anyway, this is what I did during my career in the army .. Like I said, I hope you will have a good time aswell with the great honor of serving for country.
