Teen interested in the US Military

[infin]

Would you all recommend pursuing a part time career in the military. I was thinking about being in the marine/army reserves. I’ll be able to focus on college/my studies at the same time. Plus, I am not the most financially stable person so I know the government will help me pay for college. I also think it’ll help me mentally/physically. You all can’t decide for me but I would like as much information, opinions and warnings as possible. Thanks

That's up to you. There's pros and cons to it. HPS Pythia is a military veteran and she's written about this before.

True. As for weapons training though you can also go to a range...well at least here in the USA. Training for the big shit though you gotta go through special training. If i had time i would be taking some form of martial arts...but my time is taken up by a 60 hour work week while trying to fit in my yoga Rituals and cleaning workings daily.

When you got the time you should definitely do some martial arts. If it was not for this current societal situation I would be doing it. Heck, maybe I could do it regardless. I guess I have to find out. It has been many years since I last trained martial arts.
