You are trying to join an organization that has as its base the following:\nDuty.  Honor.  Courage.\n\nApparently, your recruiter sees these as words to throw away in order to fill his quota for the month.  It's up to you how you start your career- with Honor or without.\n\nI am a veteran of the nuclear field of the navy.  The reason why the nuclear program is the best in the world is the absolute ironclad personal integrity that the program demands from everyone involved.  If there is the slightest question about a person's  ability to do what is right, regardless of the consequences, that person does not belong in the program.\n\nThere are going to be a lot of marines relying on you.  You also will be a representative of every marine who has come before you when you wear the uniform.  It is up to you to decide if you want to serve as an example of the Marine Corps tradition of personal honor.

The First Sergeant is the senior enlisted soldier in a company sized unit.\n\n"If the NCOs are the backbone of the armed forces, then the First Sergeant is the heart and soul. No other enlisted person carries near the responsibility and authority of the First Sergeant, no other person in the squadron or company, including the commissioned officers, possesses the First Sergeant's breath of experience, professional knowledge, or education."

The above answer is VERY GOOD.  In fact it is taken right out of COMNAVCRUITCOMINST 1130.8f (the Navy Recruitment instruction).  Unfortunately that manual expired in OCT of 2005.  The new instruction COMNAVCRUITCOMINST 1130.8G (which is be used today), removes the “Recruit training and assignment to initial duty station” category.  So, here is the current instruction:\n\na.Buddy groups shall not consist of more that four individuals.\nb.All members of any one BUDDY group must be enlisted on the same day, at the same MEPS, and arrive at RTC together.\nc.All members of a buddy group must have a VE line score of 42 or higher (ASVAB SCORE)\n\nSo… Everything down to the categories in the above answer is correct.  Category (A) is still open as long as the above criteria’s are met. Now, I just got off the phone with a MEPS station, the Buddies DO NOT have to pick the same job.  However if they do the have a very good chance of classing up at school together and then selecting orders together the same duty station..\n\nAny questions email me….Hope this helps.

well, in both wars people joined willingly at first, then the draft was initiated when people stopped joining in large amounts. in both wars conscription was effective, you cant really compare it because each war needed different things, but overall it was highly effective. We gained the troops needed, trained them and won the war.

Formerly, the Army recognized individuals with Specialized skills, be it clerical, mechanical, construction, etc. The were called Specialists, and their ranks extended from Specialist Forth Class through Specialist Ninth Class mirroring the paygrades E4 through E9, respectively. They used the Specialist appelation to differentiate them from leaders and Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs), whose ranks ran from Corporal to Sergeant Major or Command Sergeant Major, again E4 through E9, respectively. These specialists were promoted through their expertise and seniority, but were not regarded as leaders. In the 70s, the Army stopped appointing SP7s through SP9s, and simply made them all NCOs. They further got rid of SP5s and SP6s and just called the remainder Specialists. Hope that helps.

There were draftees and when one received\nthe notice, they felt it was their patriotic\nduty to go.  The navy and air force benefited\nfrom volunteers as many wanted to avoid the\ndraft which usually meant front lines in the\ninfantry.  It wasn't until the Viet Nam War\nwhen attitudes toward the draft changed.

Ain't gonna happen, and with good reason.  Soldiers these days are not cannon fodder --- they are highly trained specialists in the use of advanced weapons.  And you cannot recruit, let alone retain, people qualified to do this with a draft.

Might want to check out Military.com, I tried looking it up and at a quick glance it looks like you need a 74 or better, but I could be wrong.  talk to a recruiter, he would know (just don't give him your phone number ; )

Military Selective Service Act (50 U.S.C. App. 451 et seq.)States that all men in the U.S. are required to register with Selective Service within 30 days of their 18th birthday. Men must be registered to be in compliance with federal law and stay eligible for student loans and grants, government jobs, job training, all security background clearances, and U.S. citizenship. In an effort to ensure compliance among young men, many states have enacted legislation which links SSS registration with the process of applying for a driver's license or state identification card. As a result of such legislation, in May 2002, the state of Delaware, which enacted driver's license legislation in 2000, became the first state to reach nearly 100 percent registration compliance since the Agency began compiling this data. In that same year, several other states followed suit. They are: Enacted and Implemented - Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Virgin Islands, and the District of Columbia.

Chill kid you are required by law to fill it out and give it to the post office. It doesn't mean your joining the military it puts your name on a list that if the draft were ever reinstated you could be called there are no exceptions so fill it out and send it. It's been the law since 1980's all males that turn 18 must fill out the form. don't sweat it it's nothing.

British armed forces are not "drafted" in. All members join up as volunteers. They sign an attestation, or contract, stating that they will carry out any legal order given to them to the best of their abilities for HM the Queen and her interests in any nation. He was not given an illegal order to go to Iraq, especially as he is a doctor. (an illegal order would be an officer or NCO telling a guard, for instance to "shoot that POW") He believed that the war in Iraq was illegal, that's fine, it's his own view, but the order to go to Iraq was not illegal. To disobey them outright was the wrong route to take. He even failed to show up for pre-deployment training. He should have gone to his Chaplain and explained his thoughts. The Chaplain has a lot of power and may have been able to get him out of it without getting him in trouble. His stubbornness and defiance cost him his job and pension and the court was right in it's decision.

Yes. We were in the same unit in the army. The only two ways to tell us apart were our names and rank on the uniform.
