Speaking from personal experience and pride.  I would say the Marine Corps is the way to go.  Something my friends and I noticed while I was in; if you ask a soldier what he does, he will tell you "I am in the Army." Navy? "I am in the Navy." Air Force? "I am in the Air Force." But if you ask a Marine what he does, he/she will tell you "I am a Marine!"  That is something no one else in the world can say.  For 230 years the Marine Corps has been monkey stomping anyone that needs it.  There has never been a mutiny in the Marine Corps.  Hence the motto "Semper Fidelis." Which means "Always Faithful."  It applies to more than that also. It applies to the fact that, if we can help it, we never leave a man on the battlefield.  Wounded or dead.  We take care of our own.  From experience with other branches of service they learn a little about their service history.  Marines learn everything about their service history.  It is no longer the history of the Marine Corps, it is MY history as well. I was a Sergeant. I was leader of Marines.  That is one of the greatest feelings in the world.  Almost as good as the day I stood on top of "The Reaper," and my Senior Drill Instructor put that Eagle,Globe, and Anchor in my hand, and told me(this by the way was the first time in the entire 13 weeks of boot camp that any Marine is addressed as Marine, only when their training is complete are you a Marine.) "Congratulations Marine. Welcome to the Corps."  Marines have pride in their service in part because of our history, and also because we had to earn the title Marine.  We had to earn the right to be called Marine.  Everyone else is a soldier, sailor, or airman as soon as they get to basic training.  Not Marines. I was every derogatory term except.  I certainly wasn't a human being. But then it was all worth it.  Marines are the first to fight.  Whatever you think your chances of going to Iraq or Afghanistan are...double it.  I'm not trying to Scare you away, but every Marine is a rifleman. Our pilots learn learn infantry combat tactics.  Oh by the way the whole Navy pilots are the best thing. Only the top 10% of Naval Flight School, are allowed to be Marine pilots.  Someone had mentioned the Navy SEALs.  You can be a Navy SEAL even if you are a Marine.  The SEALs are Special Forces and thus are open for anyone in the Armed Services to try.  But why do that, the Corps just started its own Special Forces program.  I would have retired if I could have.  Anyway I say go Marine.

Yes, he is rad! (Ignore the ignorami, use the word if it works). He is down to earth and powerful. None of the other action heroes can do what chuck can do. If a tree fell in the forest, it was chuck that knocked it down.!!!

Ahhhh.. here you go.. \n\nARMY Soldier: \n18 yr old Kid with a Gun\n\nA MARINE:\nOver two centuries of romping, stomping, hell, death and destruction. The finest fighting machine the world has ever seen. Born in a bomb crater, mother was an M-16 and father was the devil. Each moment he/she lives is an additional threat upon "your" life. Roughish looking, roving killer of the sea. Cocky, self-centered, overbearing and without any fear, for he/she is fear itself. A green amphibious monster who arouse from the sea, whose whole purpose in life is to perpetuate death and destruction upon the festering of anti-Americans throughout the globe, whenever it may arise, and when his/her time comes, he/she will die a glorious death on the battlefield, giving life to mom, apple pie, and the American flag. Marines stole the eagle from the Air Force, the Anchor from the Navy, and the rope from the Army. On the 7th day when God rested Marines overran his perimeter and stole the globe and they've been running the show ever since. Lives like a solider, talks like a sailor, and slaps the f+++ out of both. Fighter by day, lover by night, drunk by choice, MARINE by the act of GOD. SEMPER FI \n\nHope that helps. You will not find it in Websters Dictionary.\n\nCPL Howitzer, USMC.

As a retired Marine with 30 years, I can say it was close but no cigar.  You can never appreciate the feeling Marine Corps Boot camp can give you unless you have gone through it. When you arrive upon the hollowed grounds you can feel the presence of all the Marines that came before you. You can feel the pride that they all felt undertaking this great journey. You can feel the presence of those that served before you to keep this country safe. No Movie will ever convey those feelings, you have to live it to understand. Semper Fi. There is a reason we are the Few and the Proud. The reason is we attract the best, we attract men and women that understand it is a good thing to serve this country. Unlike John Kerry who has no respect for our troops, I do, and to my brothers and sisters serving, Thank You. God Bless and keep up the good work. Signed, MGYSGT WOODALL (Retired)

No way. The Marines are the elite. And no I am not putting the Army down in the least. But the marines are a different breed so to speak.

He didn't make nearly as big an effort in WCW, as he never got over the whole Montreal incident. But, yes, I would place him as the greatest wrestler of all time. Second place is a tie between Shawn Micheals, Kurt Angle and the Nature Boy Ric Flair. And to all you Hulk Hogan fans out there- the only thing that the Hulkster ever did to wrestling was turn it into a joke.
