So during the summer my family is going to move to china for 2 years for my dads work. I will graduate high school at the end of those two years in China.
That same year I graduate, i will come back and plan on joining some branch of the US military.
Will the military let me join, even though i lived in china 2years before?
Thanks

Yes, as long as you are a US citizen or legal alien. Americans join overseas all the time.

Yes, but your application is going to be a pain in the butt. Go ahead and compile a list of addresses and references for the last 7 years.

Yes as long as you don't give up your American citizenship though might make getting a security clearance a little moe time consuming or difficult.

You will be able to join, but getting a job with a clearance may be another story.

Yes you can, but be prepared to have to go through a very lengthy interview if you go to a job requiring any security clearance.

Yes, there are a lot of people who are people in the military who are citizens of foreign countries that are not US allies. You'll be okay.
