There are several of your countrymen on this site, Dice. They'll find you. A few I believe have served.
The USArmy is predominate here, true. But we have Irish, UK, Finland amongst others represented here.
Many prospective recruits for the USArmy come here to ask questions about joining.

jrj has it right. We even accept Marines!  One big brotherhood.
By the way I noticed that all of you guys from across the pond say "ex this or ex that". Our Marines for instance would say "prior" or "former" Once a Marine, always a Marine. Same goes for soldiers & sailors. Notice my sig block - the motto of the retired Army.

Wow, jrj, sounds like you know that French Sales director too....
One that always shuts the Frenchies up especially when they are start ****ing on about the Americans and Iraq is what a mate of mine said to one little Napeleon..."hey dunno why you are complaining so, cos you can now sell your guns to the Americans... they are sure to buy them cos its a great sale price since they have never been fired and only dropped once!!".. now if you want to get a reaction out of a Frenchie, drop that one on him... lol.. oh man, the ensuing row was halarious!!!....
