If you are looking for the best challenge:
Personally, I like the Army. If you want to be hard core, the Army has the Rangers, Green Berets, and Delta Force. The USMC has Recon which is basically a Ranger equivalent.
Unlike the Marines, the Army will guarantee MOS (job) in your contract whereas the Marines will put you where they need you so you could end up a cook, laundry worker or infantry depending on what they need.
Also, a much higher percentage of Army soldiers get opportunities like Airborne school and Air Assault school--almost 40% whereas the USMC sends less than 10% to such schools. The USMC is a fine service, but I feel there are fewer opportunities for training.

Any recruiting office you walk into will tell you they have the best training!!! The Navy and Air Force will compete about who is more marketble and which skills or more technical, but they will be telling you the same thing. They will tell you not join the army because they will promise you the world, only cuz they know you will be spending half your time in Iraq... And well the Marines thats only for the baddest of the bad, the toughest of the tough, and they offer the least amount of benefits as far as education, and the least amount of time to pursue it! They will all teach you things about life because you will be meeting new people and experiencing new things!

The Air Force has the best training and is like a normal job, plus the living conditions are the best out of all. I would say the Navy is second. The Marines and Army anybody can be a groundpounder

All the branches will develop you as a person, pick one that fits what you wanna do, and where you wanna go. See the world, Navy. Get stationed in Europe or Japan Army or Air Force. Wanna be labeled a Marine and have very limited other options, go Marines. As for college money, everyone offers more than the Marines. As you see I recommend everyone over the Marines.

I was in the Marines, Infantry even so of course I have a lot of personal pride. But honestly shop around for which one fits you best, which one can offer YOU the most. Uncle Sam is gonna take what he needs out of your service so try to make it the most enjoyable, enriching experience you can for the work. What MOS were you thinking about doing? Did you have a preferred duty station in mind? Want sign-up bonuses? Travel? I'll tell ya from experience if you want any of the "bells and whistles" you might as well keep walking past the Marine option, they tend to be stingy as hell. I think you'd like the Navy or Air Force possibly.

Go Navy all the way. Especially with what's going on overseas. Unless you want to go to Iraq for sure go with a sea service, meaning the Navy or Coast Guard. I'm a Navy veteran and had a great life in the Navy. I'm not sure what you are talking about girls to woman, but as a woman in the Navy I had an outstanding career and outperformed most of my male shipmates. Also, go to sea. It is the best. Shore duty sucks and you will wish you never joined.

It all depends on what you want out of your enlistment. When I enlisted I was going to join the Army but my father, a 20 year Army veteran, talked me into talking to a recruiter from all branches and the Coast Guard. After talking to all the recruiters I decided that the best thing for me would be the Navy. I encourage you to do the same, speak with all branches of the military and the Coast Guard, and why not look into local law enforcement as well. See what they all have to offer and then make your decision. It helps to tell the recruiters that you have to decided to join, but you haven't picked a branch, they won't be as pushy that way.

If you don't mind hard work, go army or marines, although your not going to have much of a chance for any additional training..... If you want something a little less physical, go for navy, or airforce, you will also have a better chance to up your education. Start with a navy recruiter, take the asvab, and see what kind of rate you qualify to get into.
The army will make promises of what you can do, but once they have you, they can stick you where ever they want.

Each branch is different, and draws off from seperate mentalities. Its best to talk to each branch yourself and see which one fits you the best. As far as treatment the Air Force has the best Quality of life. The Navy has the best equal treatment. Army has the best variety of jobs, and the marines, well they are marines.

You forgot the US Coast Guard. Training is only as good as the student and their desire to learn. Check out the options with the different requiters. Do not sign anything until you get what you want and get it in writing. If it is a career that you want all FIVE branches of the military are excellent.
