Which army? For which nation?

Do what's best for you.
Try and listen to both sides of the argument.
Argue with yourself to not join the army, as well as to join the army.
Examine both sides, the pros/cons, and decide what's best for you.

The only real reason to join the military is if you want to kill people. Do you want to kill people?

No, like it's not actual combat, it's just training. My nation is in no conflicts at the moment so it's just a thing guys do here.

If you want to do it, then do it.

Better to go and experience it rather than wonder what if for the rest of your life.

Also, it can be useful. You'll learn useful skills, perhaps even a trade.

If you're a well-rounded, put together young man wanting to participate in the Military to better his country (USA I'm hoping and assuming) people and himself. Don't do it if you're a COD basement neet who thinks this is gonna give him confidence and pussy points.

LOL anyone who joins the US military belongs to the dregs of society. Your too stupid for college or even a trade school. You have the IQ of a chimp and will end up dead or paralyzed fighting for jew interests

Not US military, combat wont be included, just a traditional experience tbh. My grandpa fought against the soviets in WW2 and his dad fought too. My dad didn't go to the army tho
