I suppose it boils down to 'Do you love your country enough to fight for it?'

I personally, could not bring myself to join. I don't think I would achieve any sort of satisfaction from doing it. I also believe that any skills I have or will pick up can be utilised elsewhere. On the contrary, If any skills could land me a great job in connection with something like defence (like engineering parts for submarines) ect I probably would consider the possibility, indirectly.
But never would want to be on the front line.

Ok, I would like to hear you thoughts.

I served in the Air Force. I grew up poor as a church mouse. I would not have been able to go to college without their help. I used the GI bill, tuition assistance and Vet Grant.
