hey, yea i've been tryin to join, but my last scores on the ASVAB were pretty low.. But, I did quit my job, and studied, and I took my practice at the recruiters and passed, so this coming Tuesday, I'm taking the real one again, And Passing this time, the only problem, I have A GED and that requires a 51 or higher to get ACTIVE duty for the Army, and I can't get that High.. so I'm goin Army Reserve, and going "MP" instead of Infantry, then after AIT I can switch to Active, wich sux, cause I want to go infantry and active duty.. but I guess reserves will have to do for now, it's been my dream to serve this country.. and I'm 17..but Finally I get to go in.. lol.. This Country is Amazing!!.. God Bless America and Everyone who live's in it!!..

Hey, guys. I'm 27 years old and just took my ASVAB test and scored a 72. I can't wait until I get to join. I have to wait until this stupid traffic ticket that I got two years ago gets closed. Should be here in a couple of weeks! I'm looking foward to advancing my skills in the Army. Also the training that the Army gives is going to be a great challenge and benefit for me and all that join. I also just yesterday graduated college. I hope that very soon I will be joining the many that help serve our great country.

hi, my name is kenny and i had decided at one point in my life to join the marines.. i took the asvab test and passed i was all ready to ship out and at the last second i backed out.. i now have a girl friend that i care alot about right now and i really want to take care of her..i know that i will probaly be gone alot but as long as i can support me and her finacially i will be happy.. im at the point in my lift where i need to make a decision on what my next step is going to be and if this sign on bonus is true i wanted to know if i can still recieve it even if i had at one point was goin to join the marines? please contact me and let me know all the details.

Hey Kenny, It will be well worth it.
Marines are tuff but why not another branch of the military? MAKE sure that whatever you decide, it is on paper and hold onto all......... It is a contract .

Kenny Staley, if you want to join the Marine then join the Marines because you want a differance in this world. You would be a Marine first and husband or boyfriend second. So many young men get caught up with women and it complicates things for service members and or those who decide to get out because of a girl. If she supports your decision to become a Marine, then you should expect a woman that will be there for you whether or not you come home or maimed. It is a sacrafice that has its rewards but also has it down falls. Don't join the Marines because you want to take care of this girl. Join the Marine because you want to do what is right for yourself and for your fellow Marines, if you decide to join.

Hi, I have always been a reject my whole life - UNTIL now ,,, im scoring 20 grand ( a large STACK ) for me, im leaving soon and cant wait to kill the first Iraqi and whoever else gets in the way of USA

Hello to everyone, I recently lost a friend from an IED in Iraq and it sucks. I couldn't believe it when I heard it, still don't. But anyways my girlfriend and I were thinking alot about joining, but I could't find any info on buddy systems. I went through the spouses section but it didn't mention much about new recruits and how that goes. Any info would be great. I wish that I could join in such short notice to get the 2o G's too but I can't up and leave that fast. I'd definitely like to get back into shape before going all out right into BTC... God bless all of our soldiers and god speed.. You are our heroes and soon I hope to be my own hero.. and serve this beautiful country with my misses at my side, if she's still down..

Hello, I did the ASVAB two weeks ago and scored a 53...they offered me a 20,000 bonus and a good job, but i have to leave by the end of Sept. Problem is I am 28years old,have 3 daughters and 20 lbs.overweight. I found someone to take care of my girls, but i'm losing the weight slowly, I don't think I'm gonna make it in time and most probably lose that bonus...well I wish everyone outhere good luck and god bless!

does stop loss apply?

and if you don't know what stop loss is....look it up

good luck to all the new recruits!!!

I once considered joining. I still do sometimes, but I am not sure I would adjust well to the lifestyle required. I scored a 93 on the ASVAB and was offered any career path they had, including NSA. However, I declined for the time being because I was not sure I would be motivated to give it my full energy, and the Army deserves nothing less than your best.

do u have to make a surtain score on the absvab

Well i just dropped off my son's uncle last week at Ft.Benning..
and i need to loose 20 lbs so i can ship asap.. i hate my job and civilian life...
any pointers would be appreciated.
oh and i scored a 98 on the asvab the recruiters give..
thinkin about becomming a warrant officer and a 22d( diver) any por's or con's would help. thanks

Hello. For all of you who are thinking about joining, and think you are too old, you only live once. You might as well make the best of YOUR OWN LIFE. Listen, I thought and thought about joining, I am 27 now and am joining the Army Guard. I finished college and am tired of working the JOB. I hate waking up and going to the JOB 5 days a week. I take the ASVAB Tomorrow in KC and will blow it away. I have a mortgage (rental that hasnt rented yet) paying rent in Lawrence, a car payment and a lil credit card expenses. I have a good job, no kids and no wife..thank god. If you are thinking about joining and are not being PRODUCTIVE NOW, then what kind of life are you living for yourself??? What stories will you tell new friends?? Your kids if you dont have any now or later on in their lives?? We are a country of greatness, and debt. We all have different hangups about the military, but what does it take for freedom in this great country of ours?? It takes courage, dedication, and great men and women of the United States military to keep us safe. I am not a radical right wing. I graduated from a private college and work full-time making good money. I used to be a mortgage broker before the whole credit crunch happened. I am intelligent and am joining the Army Guard. Grow a pair and do it.

i was thinking about joining the army, but i was wondering how soon do you get the enlistment bonus and how is spilt up. will there be something that my wife can pull from in case of emergency

look people i am just 19 years old and in the army. i have been in the army for 1 year now. i am just a PFC (E-3) and a 97E. the good part about the army is that you get to meet alot of people and get to visit alot of different countries. i am stationed right now in Korea and i love it here. now the army is offering 20,000 $ and that is a great deal. i only got a bonus of 4,000.

what all is entailed in getting a 97 e?
do you have to score high on the asvab and a good pft score?

Is the bonus taxed at 40%?

all you really need is to get a good gt score and a decent asvab score. just talk to your recruiter about the possibility of getting that MOS. it is a really good job and once you get out you have alot of choices in the civilian world. and the bonuses. it is not taxed at 40%. thats false. its about 20 - 25%. because of my 4000$ i got only 3,200 back.

Willie P Coletrain, saying something coldhearted and stupid like, "im leaving soon and cant wait to kill the first Iraqi and whoever else gets in the way of USA", is NOT what this man's Army is all about and never was. Doesn't matter if those of us served in Nam, Korea, WWII, Desert Storm or just peacetime, none of us who enlisted did so with the specific purpose in mind of killing people. We did it to defend our country and our constitution. It is a soldier's intended job to keep the peace, not go out and create mayhem and carnage. There is nothing glamorius about war or taking the life of another, even if the life you take is that of our enemy and it was either you or him.

When you enter basic training and hopefully advance to your AIT unit provided you have what it takes to make it that far, KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT AND YOUR EYES AND YOUR EARS OPEN. Many of the instructors you will have are the best of the best and have been in the shit. They willl tell you that the purpose of the training you will receive is not to avenge, but to defend. If it is your intent to be a hotdog, then go perform in a wild west show because in the Army, there is no room for hotdogs, only soldiers who are TEAM PLAYERS!

Duty, Honor, Country! Learn the meaning of the code because you will be expected to live up to it.

I'm trying to get into the airforce but I have some waviers and they're taking pretty long to get approved. Does anyone know if the army takes as long I've already been waiting two months now .....

WHAT THE HELL?

I'm worried my sister will be joining the army with a bunch of idiots!!!! army standards for enlistments are so low, plus they'll waiver in anyone, suck them in with bonuses just to make quota.......don't join for bonuses, join for the career training, and you better pick a good one, because if you don't, when your enlistments up, if you can't change over to civilian world, your gonna be a lifer!!!

WOW SO YOU COME TO A ARMY PAGE AND THEN TALK CRAP ABOUT THE ARMY? APPARENTLY THE AIR FORCE HAS LOW STANDARDS IF THEY LET SOMEONE WITH YOUR LOW INTELLIGENCE IN...

The army is a cool choice. I myself am joining the Marines, because I made sure that I wasn't joining just for the big bonuses. You always hear people say do what makes you happy, not necessarily what makes the most money. You have to think of long term stuff, and thoses big bonuses will just make you happy in the short-run. Do what you really want and you will be happy you did what you liked the most, whether it had a big bonus or not. I know that I will happier in the marines, so I don't mind getting a little less for the enlistment bonus. I am hoping to become a marines officer and lead the way!

Hello! I joined the Air Force Res. then the Army (active). Last year I got out due to divorce bills and child issues with my ex-wife. From the time I got out I was hired by KBR. I make good money, but I really miss the family atmosphere in the military. In a month I will end my contract with KBR in Iraq and head back into the ARMY! Hey... I love it! Plus I'm close to retirement. Ha ha ha! 1st Cav is just family to me!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been in the army for 10 years, and I have been deployed twice. I do not have any of that patriotic duty gung ho stuff in me any more and at one time I may have. The reason why I am here is because of family. When all that PDGH stuff goes away what else do you have?

i was wonderin if i reclassed while still in AIT if i wil still recieve my quick-ship bonus? i was under the impression that as long as i completed training no matter the circumstances, hat i would still receive my bonus. if any one has any info for me my e-mail is the_end_is_never_far@yahoo.com. thanks to anyone with any input.

Inever was offered a quick ship bonus and I did meet the requirements too!

To everyone here:

IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT JOINING THE ARMY YOU ARE #$%&*@# NUTS!!! They are more than willing to screw you over. I was deployed to Iraq from June 2006 to June 2007 and now they have just told me I am going to be deployed again from 2008 to 2009. I was home for only 6 months before i was put on alert status again. This is some bullshit. The army ruins your life and your relationships. DONT EVER trust a recruiter. He will never see a person, all he sees is dollar signs..... I hope everyone of you who wants to join for that college money realizes that ITS NOT WORTH IT!!! Take out a loan and go to college. It helps you to start building your credit and your future job will have college loan repayment options. THINK ABOUT ALL OF YOUR options before making any desicion. The Army is a last resort for idiots!

... SPC Screwed .....

The army is ok but not great, maybe if you like to have your life controlled every second and thats the truth. Im a E-5 been in for six long painful years and I regret. I wish I would have went to college. O yeah i never got 1 cent but once im out I have the lame ole GI Bill GREAT lol who am I kidding I get out in 2 months cant wait.

Hey my name is Crystal Armstrong my borther joined the army in 2006 and now i'm joining. i want to become a MP. my whole family is an Army family and it is great i love it. we should have more people that are ready to fight for their country. Join the Army live life on how you want to.

Hello, my name is Cynthia, I'm 17, and I'm probably going to basic this summer for the Army. I'm going to go is as an MP. Are they still doing this "Quick-Enlist" thing? My recruiter has said NOTHING about it.. he won't even tell me the sign on bonus for an MP.

If I don't go Army, I'm probably going Navy. I have until Wednesday to decide, that's when I sign my contract.. the first time.

hi my name i s victoria and i m 21 i have been in a lot of hard ship in my life and i just desided to get up and do somthing to secure my future so i joined the army i took the asvab 3 times befor scoring a low score or 38 but thats ok im in and now i can work towored get a higher score and futhering my education im so excited about it !!!!!!!!!!!

I am the only son in my family not to still be in the army. I got out because my wife said it was changing me. I wasn't fun loving anymore. One of my brothers is a Captain and the other is a recruiter. They were both happy, joking fun young men when they first joined. Now they are hard to get along with. Think they are better than everybody. And are very hard on their kids. The army changes you not always for the better. The drill sergeants break you down mentally to build you back up as a soldier. And to anyone looking to get that $20k. Well you get about $8k or less after you finish Basic and A.I.T. and then 2 years later you get the other$8k. So don't expect $20k in your bank next week. I only got $1800 when I joined. Recruiters don't lie to get people to join. They are not on commission. They don't even have to recruit. People come to them and want to join. They go into great detail of the pros of joining but not the con's. They don't mention to the 17 year old cheerleader (and her parents) that is doing split training that in basic training she will have to go into a room filled with tear gas and remove her gas mask. People vomiting and snot everywhere. Or live tracer rounds get fired over their heads while they crawl through a field. (I don't know if they still do that) If you are a bad ass who wants to be a even worse bad ass join. If you are a wimp who wants to grow a pair join. But if people laugh at your jokes and you love being around kids and having a good time and love ALL your weekends and don't want to go to Iraq and watch your friends die and watch the converted Iraq soldiers wipe their butts with their hands and burn up radios and laptops because you didn't know you had to have a 2 piece power inverter then don't join.

I Like Your Work,

Good Job,

Hi There,

Hi There,

Hi There,

Best Wishes!,

To SPC Screwed, and all that listened to this guy. I've been in the military for 16 years, and never thought twice about getting out. I've been to Iraq 3 times, Afghanistan 1 time, Korea 2 times, and Haiti once. Yeah it's a lot of time away from home, but the money is awesome, the benifits, great, and if you have family, your home is paid for. In addition, I will retire at the age of 45, draw 50% of my current pay for retirement, and hold a bachelors degree that I did not pay a cent for. Hell, I made money going to school, for they bought the books back from me that I got for free. So listen to SPC Screwed if you want to, but a Soldier with that crappy attitude is better off out of the service anyway. If anyone of you is serious about the military, feel free to e-mail.

SPC Screwed, I hope you know recruiters don't get paid on commission. My dad was one for 4 years. Everyone in the military gets the same base pay, you should know that. As for relationships, you should have a strong foundation already, or why bother? The army is a great choice by many, come to think of it, any military branch is. Benefits, experiences, job security, something many jobs nowadays can't guarantee you with.

douche bags!
