Should I join the army? I want to make it to the Rangers or Berets. I work out several times a week, working on cardio and weights. I just want some extra insight.

Well, to be honest kid, I would look into the requirememts, you need to be maxxing your pt standards or they'll laugh at yourpacket as they toss it in the shredder (Rangers less so but still the same). There's a reason why most individuals fail out of those schools, they're difficult to the point of nearly killing you in the process. Be the best soldier you can be, and get Ranger/ SoF in contract. Joining tje Army is a personal thing, everyone I know has a story, most of us were broken before signing up, and the things we've seen only wear at us even if we don't talk about them.

I have years before I will do this, I have looked into the requirements and looking specifically to max them out. I may be broken, but you cant break if you are already broken.

>being peacetime infantry

I hope you like sweeping floors and police calling parking lots. You may as well go Navy and do some real deployments. Perks:

>get to clean things every day
>get to work insane hours
>get to get assdamaged by dumbfuck khakis daily
>maybe see some foreign ports for a few days every couple of years

Real life ain't cowadooty. It's not going to be fun or exciting, you're going to be mostly miserable your entire enlistment unless you go full bitch mode and join the Air Force or Coast Guard. Which are the only branches the smart people who care about their lives join, but get shit on by real military folks the most.

Not OP, but if I have a hard on for milshit and score like a 330 on the APFT, what would my chances of making it through an 18x contract be?
>>
>>32357518

Only if you want to fight for a corrupt federal government and fight wars for international entities that don't give a fuck about your hometown and way of life (in fact, they'd loathe it).

>>32357906
Not good, chiefly because everyone wants that position, and the training is hard as fucking nails. Do it anyways, if you want something badly enough tell the odds to go fuck themselves, you will need discipline, motivation, and brotherhood to pass the trials that stand before you, and only after they are over will you truly appreciate what you have done. Also combat contracting jobs hire ex-special forces and they make bank if you can set up a network of contacts while you're in and take a shine to getting shot at in the sand box
>>
>>32357906
Very likely since the max score is 300

My cousin is a scout sniper, I could get him on the phone and ask him questions about the army if you want

>>32358142
Sure, that would be great honestly. Could you ask him why he joined and what kinds of training he did beforehand, if any?
