step of their life.
Examples; 'What are some non deployable USMC units?' or 'Why do I have to cut my hair?' or 'Will the military put my in onpost housing with my girlfriend?'

Ahhhhhhh....All better now

Im pritty sure once you hit Col. they dont just give you a tour of the place. Its an air force base that doesnt oficialy exist. So who do they let in there? I would be happy to even guard it. do they keep regular divisions there? scientists only? I want to work there. Dont be stupid and say you cant, or no one knows who is in there, or dumb ****, just answer. how do you get involved in top secret stuff, namly area 51.

I plan on moving to The Netherlands (Holland) and would like to continue the Air Force reserves over there. I know there are quite a few bases in Germany, and possibly Holland. Or is there a waiting list, and obviously a job has to exist. Any insight would be appreciated.

Other countries have compulsory national service as soon as a male turns 18. Some of my friends in fact have served and I reckon they're better off for it - even they say so. They're more mature, they're certainly more knowledgable, they're more disciplined etc.
Was just wandering, if it would work in UK? To help tackle the increasing rate of youth offending?

I know liberty is like time off on the weekends or nights while in port/etc... Do Navy Personell have to stay in a hotel if they're on leave, or do they come back to their ship/base once they're done?

Also, what's it like for submariners? I know that if they're on special missions, etc..., they don't get too much port time.. Do they get to see the sites once in a while?

From what i've seen, many of the wars in recent history have been supplied by the United States (and some others). For example, the US has attacked Iraq; a country that has not killed americans before (before the war), nor even plotted to killed americans (before the war). Why would we attack them, especially when we were the ones that supplied them with weapons in the first place (http://www.casi.org.uk/info/usdocs/usiraq80s90s.html ). There have been many other wars in which were started by the US, or the US supplied weapons to one or more sides. Why is this occurring?

In my quest for appeal from a medical waiver that has been denied 3 times, I have done everything from writing to my senator secretary of the navy, and congresswoman to getting notes from my specialist nullifying all the general reasons for medical disqualification, "is it contagious," is it effected by military lifestyle" ect. The board for navy medical waivers in millington tn. just seem to say that the partial scarring of my kidneys due to IgA nephropathy-my condition is enough to disqualify me. I firmly believe this is an unfounded excuse as i am perfectly able bodied to do any job for any amount of time which i would be called on to do. My kidney condition is a non-factor as stated by my doctor as well. Anyone know of other ways, or other people i can get through to win this ridiculous battle which i need to be able to make those guys see that allowing me to join is not risky.

I have not figured out if I want to do Navy or Airforce...

What are the positions in the Navy and Airforce where you don't deploy during your first eight year enlistment or you have a less likely chance to deploy?

Also, I am the custodial parent and I have family that can watch my kid but do I get BAH even if I come in as an E-2 oe E3?

I don't need a lecture just my question answered. If you can't don't respond.

Quick question regarding the Navy: if a person holds the rank of commodore, can/would they still be referred to as 'captain' while they are aboard a ship of which they are specifically in charge?

Some will think this is a dumb question, but I don't know what I should do...

My husband's going to be home on leave from Iraq in a couple days (after being gone eight months) and I'm picking him up at the airport. We have a six week old daugter he'll be seeing for the first time. My question: should I hold her in my arms when we first see him, or should I hug him first? I don't want to hold and hug at the same time...its too akward and I wouldn't be able to hug him like I want. Thanks for your input!

There never seems to be any soldiers in Iraq that carry sidearms in conjunction with their primary weapon. Why not? You would think it makes sense to have one in case of weapon jam, zero ammunition or loss of weapon. Cost cannot be the reason for this.

After all, we DO have a professional army, whose job it is to fight. Nobody made them join up, unlike previous major wars, where men were enlisted to fight, whether they liked it or not. As a National Serviceman, along with many others, I was sent to fight in Korea, (of all places!) Aren't we being a bit "soppy" about our boys abroad? Nobody in their right minds wants them harmed in any way, but they DID take it on as their job. Or have I missed the point about their being professionals (or even mercenaries)?
