What advice do you give someone that wants to join the army?

Im in the Army.. I love it... I gotten my degree in criminal justice.. my brother wants to join but i really dont know what to tell him becuz he is older than me and i dont want to make it seem like its all fun and gamesWhat advice do you give someone that wants to join the army?
Alzheimer's/Dementia.What advice do you give someone that wants to join the army?
You got it right the first time! Explain- no, emphasize, it is not all fun and games,. It is a very serious commitment.


There are untold rewards, but those rewards are not without a price! You may get an opportunity to see places like Germany, Japan, etc, but you also may have the opportunity to see places like South Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan. No one GIVES you the GI bill, you EARN it.


I'm sure you and anyone else who has ever been in knows what FTA stands for. And I'm sure you;ve seen your share of hotshots who wanna become airborne ranger MP's who are reduced to sniveling POS by the end of the first week of basic.


Explain all this to him, just be sure he is certain of what he is in for, then let the chips fall where they may. He is furtunate to have some like you who has been there %26amp; done that. Stress the committment, and the rewards that follow.
If you're already in the Army and ';gotten'; a degree, you should already know what to tell him.





However, my advice is:


* Get to the point where you can run two miles in 18 minutes


* Be able to do 30 pushups (CORRECTLY!) and 30 situps w/o stopping


* Learn to make hospital corners on your bed


* Learn the Soldier's Creed before shipping to basic training





They'll teach you everything else
i would tell him to get wise and start making decisions for himself.





in the military they tell what to wear, where to live, who to kill...
Watch your six the Commander in Chief is a Coward.





Look at those poor guys in Afghanastan abandon on the battlefield dying as we speak and Obama doesn't care.
