I had a great time in the Navy and bad times as well, the rates ar 50/50. Your going to find the same pros and cons in EVERY branch. Just like in any job in the civilian world. However I suggest you go for a job in the military that would help you in the civilian life when you decide to not reenlist (by choice or by retirment). There are a lot of things they dont tell you. For instance, just because you went to school in the military to become an aircraft mechanic (thats what i choose to do in the Navy) doesnt mean when you get out you can just pick up a job at an airport. You still need to go to AMP (airframes and power plants) school for the civilian certification, I didnt know that, found out the hard way. Just because you go to school to be Military Police DOES NOT ensure that you can land a job as a cop back home, you have to go through a civialin Police Academy. You need to not only look into what you want to do in the military, but what is going to benifit you when you get out.  Now I am currently an engineer with the US Army. I can still barely find a decent job in the civie world.  If you want to know more, hit me up on the xbox, Ill closed party chat with you and tell you what I know and what ive learned. Im sure some of the other guys wouldnt mind joining in as well.   E</blockquote>
