Military - December 2007

I am a female and want to join the Army, I cannot decide between a Military Police or a Medical education. I am 22, I am willing to dedicate 4-6 years of life and am willing to travel to Iraq (yeah I know I will end up doing it anyways!) I want my military education to transfer into a civilian world. Waht do you suggest, medical or law enforcment?

In WWI people were forced to serve in the military. Did people flee in this war? or in WWII?

I feel this war is just pointless and many people are losing their lives for nothing. At first we invaded iraq becuase they were suspected of having nuclear weapons which turns out that wasn't the case. We've already took out Saddam so he's no longer a threat and were still over there fighting and it appears that were not accomplishing anything at all. they already have there own military so I don't have a clue why all our troops have to still be over there. and now there talking about going to war with Iran for reasons I don't know why. from what I hear there suspected of having nuclear weapons. with such a huge strain on the military do you think that they could possibly bring the draft back? what are everyone elses thoughts on the war? do you think it's worth fighting or not? and why?

All but one guy who worked there that I made eye contact with started f*cking with me.

It was like I had some huge sign on my forehead that said they were supposted to f*ck with me.

Don't get me wrong I thought it was kindof funny, and most of them came around once they started talking to me.

Is their some sort of look on someones face that makes military people wanna f*ck with you? I had never said anything to these people and I'm not a minority.

I know theirs only more of this crap to come in bootcamp, but are there any tips on how to get the exact opposite of this to happen in bootcamp? It seems like people were noticing me MORE here whereas in bootcamp you want the Drill Sergant to notice you less.

What does this mean? It doesn't have anything to do with quartering troops; so, don't answer with that.

Hi,
I am a soon to be navy wife and I just had a quick question. My future husband is in bootcamp right now in Great Lakes and he is going to be an SK.
When he went down to MEPs in San Diego, the guy who had him pick his job told him that this job would never be put on a ship out to sea.
I was wondering if anybody in the Navy (currently or not) or even better, if an SK could possibly tell me if this is true or not?

Also, if he is put onto a base, what bases are they usually put onto? Or is it any/all bases?

extremely low in tight circles around downtown Denver's skycrapers? It looked like they were practicing their firefighting aerial skills on a city in their B-29 and B-24 airplanes. Who were the pilots and why were they flying only 500 to 800 feet above downtown Denver that day?

Niether supports the army. My mother hates it due to her bad exprience in the guard and her dad serving in ww2. My girlfriend just scared I'll get shot, last time I even brought it up they both almost tore my head off. I dont want them two know like the day I sign the contract, what should I do. Oh and the patriotic defense never worked.

My friend just married a Navy guy, and she believes everything he says. He told her he can go to school & the GI Bill will pay for his tuition, books, AND give him extra money, like a paycheck. I thought it just covered tuition & maybe books. What exactly does the GI Bill cover?

both Stalin and Mao Tse Tung killed so many more? My best bet is it was because of who he killed, what is yours?
Hitler 10 million
Stalin 20-40 million
Mao Tse Tung 42-63 million according to an investigation headed by Ted Kennedy..
Also Russia (Stalin) took over half of Finland, a little more then half of Poland, all of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and part of Romania. While Hitler, up to that point had only got the smaller portion of Poland.
