Realistically, about how much free time will I have while I'm in the military. Is it feasible for me to read and study a new language and things like that while I'm in or will I have to put that on hold?

>>34772478
>Realistically, about how much free time will I have while I'm in the military
This is as vague as if yo asked a civilian how much free time do you have?
All depends man, in general though yes you will have free time to learn a language, especially when stateside. While deployed its usually tougher.

All MOSes allow you to do split option (doing training over the summer), the MOS you do AIT for depends on what your state has. What MOS are you looking into?

>>34774021
You should definitely look up how long AIT is for both of those, because some MOS'es training lasts longer than most summer breaks.

>>34774066
Mechanics get 10 weeks basic and 13 weeks AIT. That should be compatible with the split option.

Is it a good idea to join the Air Force for four years, get PRK surgery, and send in a application for WOFT? I was thinking of going Aircraft Structural Maintenance.

what questions should I ask my marine recruiter today?

I'm making a list

>go to armed forces career center
>nobody from the navy is there
ok army i guess
>nobody from the army is there
>air force sergeant comes out
no thanks
>marine recruiter comes out
>talk to him

I've gone in every day for 4 days now. And the army still isn't fucking there. I wanted to be an army mechanic, but they dont even answer calls. What the fuck gives?

>>34775095
This reminds me of my first time talking to branches besides the AF, I literally touched the door, moving it less than half an inch, and then walked away and a Marine recruiter came running out.

Sometimes recruiters have a training week, or shit like that.
If it happens again next week as well, then idk.

>>34775125
Not him, but why is that?

You are literally retarded. Your recruiter lied to you and you believed it. There is a strong correlation between IQ testing results and ASVAB results. The only reason the DoD doesn't straight up call it an IQ test is because of how distasteful people would find it to see how stupid they are.

>>34776723
Its pointless to retake if you already meet the minimum score for the jobs youre looking at, and 74 meets the vast majority of them.

You could score 100, but you're not getting any special treatment over the guy that scored 60 for the same role.

are there any navy rates where I would spend a little time on a submarine? Spending the night in a nuclear submarine is a bucket list dream for me, but I dont want to be stuck there my whole enlistment.

Unfortunately no. Subs are staffed by their own rates.

This is what I'll probably do, but I'll probably regret it later in life.

Why is /meg/ so anti air force

>>34781711

Same reason they're so anti-Marines.

Air Force requires the highest ASVAB score, doesn't pad ASVAB scores like the other services do, and has the best MWR and lowest physical requirements. Marines have the highest physical requirements but don't expect you to be smart.

People are triggered by one or the other, and some people by both.

Thanks for the reply. I'd like to do what I like, but I honestly have no idea what I would like. I would at least like a base that's not in the Confederate South, or midwest. Korea and Germany seem nice.

I like intelligence, logistics, aircrew, investigative, computing and IT, and any AFSC that works with explosives, but is not a missileer. Would not like maintenance, security, or administrative; too stupid for medical. Thought about the 3D AFSC, but from what I understand that's being phased out to contractors.

Wouldn't mind something that has job value after I discharge, but I'm looking to help out the country somehow and get an, at the very least, satisfactory experience and to see more than just my rural state in my lifetime.

>>34781742

>>34783288
>Associates degree and then enlist? Does it not matter for anything like promotions or the like?
I think they used to give you a slight bump but not sure if that flys anymore. Id say why waste money on school first though, just join and do your time then either get an associates while youre in or wait until youre out and use the gi bill.

>>34781341
Intentionally damaging navy property (by breaking doors) explains it. Furthermore, you're lucky you were in A school in the navy. If you were rooming with salty, ptsd-seasoned operators, you might not have made it past the first door. My first thought would be you were an active shooter. You could've been shot by a nosy MP.

totally fair punishment, IMO.

>>34783288
I'm that guy. I really think I'm going to enlist and just use the GI bill on grad school. I can't imagine staring at a commissioning board while they're all looking at my transcripts and judging me.

I flunked out my first year at a liberal arts college (academic suspension- they told me to take a semester off to get my grades up at another school or work for a year- LOL fuck that). I transferred to a CC and did okay but still failed quite a few classes and got put on probation. Pulled grades up there, and transferred to a better state school, there I got put on probation once more, but then i stopped drinking and school got easier, and i buckled down and finished.

it only took me 5 years start to finish, but its a horrible embarrassing and convoluted story that earmarks me as an extremely risky bet for a commission. what ever you do, don't make the same mistakes I did. Taik yer skewlin sereeuslee.

My max weight is 184. Before, I was around 186. Didn't eat breakfast, cleared MEPS. I didn't start seriously working out until I got my ship date. My fault, but I was in waiver hell for a very, very long time.

So I've been working out a lot, and my weight actually shot up to 190 and has been stagnant there for a few days. I ship out in about 40 days.

I've been trying my best to maintain a calorie deficit, and am drinking a ton of water, which I guess I would attribute the gain to.

Any tips to make it come off reliably so I can be below my target weight by the time I ship? Really don't want to go through the hell of being over.

>>34784986
Keto.

>>34784986
Do cardio. Lots of it.

I mean run, in PT kit, lots and lots. Follow a half marathon training program, or a 10k one if you're a poor runner.

>>34781845
Lmao

>>34785001
Any basic tips on keto? Carb/calorie goal?

What I never understood about it was you still needed a calorie deficit to lose weight. What's the benefit of lowcarb/nocarb if you still need to watch calories?

Would security forces be a good place to chill for 4 years while I figure my life out?

>>34785472
If youre doing it right, you can eat 700 calories a day on keto and not feel hungry whatsoever. Intermittent fasting helps too. Skip breakfast and work out first thing in the morning. If you have enough fat in your diet, you will have to remind yourself to eat, not be ruled by hunger.

>>34786214

Why do you have to do pull ups in basic training if they aren't even required during the actual PT tests?

they're a good exercise for building muscle without weights

>they're a good exercise for building muscle without weights
But if you are literally capable of 0 pull ups, you aren't building much muscle?
Hanging like an ass hole probably doesn't do very much.

How bad of an idea is it to join the Marines if I'm a lazy ass, a huge pussy, and have a low pain threshold?

I'm looking into being an Armorer, going Intel, or doing logistics, nothing remotely grunt-like. Generally I want to be in a position with a lot of organizational or informational responsibilities, rather than strictly physical ones.

I've considered Admin and other turbopog positions, but they're simply not as appealing.

Then why are you going Marines?
Just for the title?

>>34786903
Marines are much much more likely to be stationed driving distance from where I live (SW) and receive more infantry training than POGs in other branches, regardless of MOS.

Marines need planners, organizers, and gunsmiths too.

If you can already pass every PT test before going to basic training, how much easier does that make basic training?

>>34787046
some

however ive been told it's best not to stand out, either by being first or last

>>34781730
>Air Force requires the highest ASVAB score
Coast Guard does

>>34787078
Yeah, I was thinking when I do get there, to hide my power level, because if I show I can already do 60+ push ups in 2 minutes, they are going to expect me to do like 80 or some shit by the end of it.

>>34786764
You start doing negatives, not hanging from the fucking bar

>>34787078
>>34787111
You will likely be much better off doing as well as you can for every pt test. You only make yourself look better if you can place yourself ahead of your peers. Unless you are literally a beta fag, there is no reason not to score as high as possibe. Opportunities for training and such are often based on simple metrics like "which of these shits has the highest pt score".

Why not just join the Intel Community and avoid most of the chronic health issues that .mil guys, especially combat MOS guys develop? Brainlets will be at a disadvantage, but other than that (and not doing drugs, like at all) whatever.

Chicken thighs are pretty fatty, salmon and trout has a good amount of fat. Pork and beef is great. Cheese is masterrace.

today i had a cheddar omelete at lunch and a charcuterie plate for dinner- salami, cheese, and some olives. probably about 800 calories.

The new boots at my brothers company (USMC) are all whiny bitches. Some kid was offered a drink and he got all "b-buh, Im under age! Contacted his dad who was some ssgt dipshit who then contacted CO of the base. They think that's hazing. My brother had to put up with drunken sn. lcpls, broken beer bottles, active actual hazing from his superiors. He didn't bitch, he sucked it up. Now he has to deal with this shit.

Dude just join the Marine Reserves if you're set on muhreenz and want to be close to home. If you join the actual corps you'll probably be on the east coast or Japan. Alternatively you could join the national guard in your state.

I mean don't regular people respect Air Force right after Marines?

Like people who don't know shit about the military think
Marines = Number 1 badasses
Air Force = Smart dudes
Navy = Also smart, maybe into dudes though
Army = Wasn't good enough for Marines.

Obviously I don't think that way, and most people on this thread don't either. But average people think this way.
Most average people think being in the army means front line, and being in the air force means flying a plane.

Like I said, I grew out of that phase. I was going to join the Navy and wear that shitting uniform, but then I realized I hate the ocean, and most people in the Navy have to be on a ship at one point in their 4 years. And sometimes can last months.

Weird question.

Arm pits are hairy too, but not that bad, so I can leave those.

Should I go ahead and get prescription eye glasses or should I wait until boot camp where they provide me with them?

>>34789339
wait till boot camp, you'll get a free pair

Will I have to shower with other guys in basic? I'm gay and what I really don't want is to get an erection at the wrong time and have everyone know I'm a fag.

Also if somehow people find out will I get beaten up or anything?

But I do know my Marine friend said all the girls, including her, literally never had their period during basic because of the stress.

Can I get to high scores on my ASVAB and end up doing an awful boring job?
I want a job that takes 100 GT and is more active but it's mixed in with some MOSs that are 105 couch potato shit.

On some level yes. Once you know your SNCOs, you can put some random shit out in the room to distract.

What qualifies as in a medical record? I went to a doctor to get a prescription. Since I stupidly went to a psychiatrist to get the medication and paid for it with insurance, would I be found out if I said I had no medical conditions or medication history?

How valuable would a free month or a month and a half before AF BMT be? Wondering if it's worth the 1900 I'd miss from work. Bear in mind I may have a 5 month long tech school as well.

>>34797813
if youre out of shape, yes a month of daily exercise ( weekend rests ) is very helpful.

Basic training isn't a straight up cake walk but it definitely isn't some grand accomplishment. People go to basic not able to do 1 push-up or sit-up and come out fine.

but to make it easier for yourself you should work out prior to leaving because that's all they will make you do. Most military jobs have a good amount of free time where you have nothing to do all day except workout or play games or be bored out of your mind.

who here
>no, no, never
because it's none of the military's fucking business what I've done or had?

fuck'em, i'm not shooting myself in the foot telling the pogue faggots at meps and the recruiting office i've smoked pot or took some fucking addy when I was 12. especially when they're letting fucking felons in.

>>34800980
Go Air Force. Marines have the most fuckity games, especially if you are junior enlisted.

>>34801082
>who here
>>no, no, never
Literally everyone. Only a complete un-savy faggot would admit to that type of stuff. Just wait till youre in boot and that moment of truth shit happens. Youre gonna see so many faggots stand up its insane.

>>34786764
if you can't do a pullup you're worthless

How are MEPS doctors and psyches, etc selected?
Are they bottom of the barrel or what? Why are they seemingly so universally ancient and bitter?

>>34801137
I plan to enlist as an E-3 if that helps.

>>34801612
MEPS is civilian.

>>34801660
You are going to fucking hate life as an E-3 Marine if you are looking something close to civilian life.

>>34801772
>>34801660
How are you getting in as E-3? Have a bachelor's?

good night, /meg/

get some good sleep for your pt tomorrow morning!

If I'm smart, like 36 on the ACT smart, how much am I going to hate Marine enlisted life? If it affects anything I'm shooting for recon.

(Now MSgt) Roberts is based as fuck. Go neck yourself you colossal faggot

Doing a uni right now but plan on doing an ADF gap year as a rifleman, and maybe serving a 4 year contract after that.

The only reason im doing a uni course is backup plan. I have always wanted to serve as a professional soldier with good training and job prospects, but whereas the US has green berets and rangers which are difficult but not impossible to get into, the australian df has commandos, which are notoriously difficult for even peak athletes to get into.

My basic plan so far has been to do a rifle gap year, maybe serve, request a work visa into america on the grounds of joining their military, and go for something like green berets or rangers that has post military (but still k) prospects

Am i a fucking idiot?

What are the Pros and Cons of the Navy and Marine Corps?

>>34802000
Associates. E-4 is w/ Bachelors.

>>34801772
How hard is it to make rank if you're squared away mentally and physically?

>>34802538
>Navy
Pros: Much, much larger variety of jobs. Most of them are less demanding as well. Travel more.
Cons: Boats suck, other branches shit on you

>Marines
Pros: lol
Cons: 150% more work than the other branches for the same job, every is fucking retarded, only branch with motards, less jobs with useful skills for enlisted

>>34802000
>>34802553

Not in the marines. College credit can only bump you to E-2. Just another con to add to the list.>>34802642

>>34802642
>Boats suck
No they dont
>other branches shit on you
No they dont
>>34802538
They cant compare becuase of how different they are. Also there is no reason to join the marines ever.

>>34802709
Well shit.

I didn't disclose having my wisdom teeth being taken out at MEPS because my recruiter told me it wasn't a big deal

Am I fucked or should I just keep my mouth shut?

>>34795957
>>34798721

>>34803068
Mouth shut. There's nothing else to it

>>34789073
With the possible exception of the marines, you also can't really talk about respect for an entire branch like that. For instance, if you're in the Air Force people will probably respect you a lot more if they think you're a pilot.

Also,
>be me
>be in Navy
>use my military ID to buy a beer at a baseball game (no driver's license so it's my only proof of being 21+)
>woman looks at ID and goes "Oooooooooo you're one of them Navy SEALS!"
>"no ma'am, I'm just in the regular part of the Navy"
>"Oh that's okay, I still like you anyways."
>tfw

>>34802077
You will hate it.

>>34800776
I cant just serve as a generic marine for 20 years right? Theyd fire me eventually.

>>34803412
Marines are known for being killers. I don't think anyone would want that

At this point i seriously cant tell if you are borderline retarded or if you are actually trolling me dude.

>>34798883
The guard has combat arms units, with the guard you'll only be deployed with your unit, with reserves you could be deployed to fill a vacant slot in another unit even if your unit is not called, also the guard gets extra education bonuses from most states

>>34802538
Comparing the two directly,

>Why to join the Navy over the Marine Corps
More job variety
Skills transfer more easily to the civilian sector
Generally speaking, less unnecessary stress than in the Marines
Less chance of literally getting shot and/or dying
More potential for interesting travel
IMO jobs are just holistically more interesting

>Why to join the Marines over the Navy
If you have to ask this you probably shouldn't be a Marine
OOH-RAH
Americans tend to lionize the Marines as the pinnacle of bravery, so probably get thanked for your service a lot. Maybe this leads to more sex or something. I don't know, I'm not a marine.

>>34803616
I think its you whos baiting me.

First off wtf is a generic marine? Do you mean infantry?
Second off they dont fire anyone. You can get forced out eventually if you dont make rank. Do you not know that?
Third you say start in force recon as if its easy. Its incredibly difficult.
Fourth going MARSOC is leagues tougher and you need to be training for years to even try and you talk about it so casually like it is just something you fall into.
Fifth you said
>but I figure they won't keep me there forever, so i'd have to go to school after and come back
and I have no idea what this even means.
You clearly have absolutely no idea what you are talking about and havent done a single drop of research on your own. I wouldnt be surprised if this is your first time in a meg thread.

Thoughts? Crewman is an armoured soldier, get trained to be a gunner, driver, operator or observer. In recon vehicles/tanks. Military is Canadian.

>>34804034
Nigga I started talking to my recruiter a week ago, i'm researching now.

Im a janitor with no degree, they arent gonna give me a data actuary position because I score well on the asvab, so I assume that unless I use force recon/an outside degree to eventually rank up I will get discharged.

>>34803660
If someone was dq'd from the army could they still apply for their states national guard?

>>34804864
>hey arent gonna give me a data actuary position because I score well on the asvab
??????
>so I assume that unless I use force recon/an outside degree to eventually rank up I will get discharged
Thats not how it works at all. How can you be so oblivious to how the military works? Seriously dont post here again until you go read up.

Is it worthwhile to go for deployment several times?
Seems like the majority of people like it, and it's not a bad way to get some savings and experience.
I spend almost all my minuscule free time reading and drawing anyways so it's not like I'll do anything different when I sit in some remote base.
