Hey, this I don't know the answer to how you'd join if you're in the Phillippines, but I do have some advice for you. If you join the US Army, you will most likely get deployed right away to either Iraq or Afghanistan....the army deploys for a year and a half at a time, minimum. I would suggest looking into the Navy, Marines, or Air Force over Army, unless you want to deploy for that long. The other services only deploy for 7 months - 1 year at a time.
Good luck and thank you for your interest in serving our country.

You may want to start with asking your father. He may determine that at one time in his life,this is where he was. Also he might know someone who may know a recruiter.

Try contacting the US Embassy. They should be able to get you contact with a recruiter.

You will probably have to call the army, and give them your exact location, and they can tell you where you need to go.
