Army sucks though, it really does. I guess being an officer would be pretty comfy, but enlisted fucking blows.
I know only a handful of people in my platoon who ever reenlisted for more
>>
>>57442391
Cool. I know 2 friends who went to special forces selection and passed. Now they're on their way to getting that green beret

If you can ruck 25 miles with an 80lb rucksack, you'll be alright. If not, may god have mercy on your soul
>>
>>57439866
>>Have you been in the army?
Yes.

>>What's your class/rank?
Regular grunt. I was offered a higher position because I was a good shot and not a fucking psycho like most other people but denied because I had other plans.
>>
>>57442516
So at higher ranks do you oversee all the racemixing or what happens in the Swedish """""military"""""

It's not the only way of affirming your masculinity. Don't fall for the old Hemingway trap. Focus on what you can do and be a good man. Honestly I feel pretty embarassed at how badly I wanted to join the army when I was 18, it was all around meh.
>>
>>57442659
It depends mate. I spent some time working as a patrol officer (or whatever the fuck it's officially called in English) at an airbase. Comfy job, good pay, fun times with the lads.
>>
>>57442673
Then see my post here>>57442498

From my two platoon mates who have gone and passed selection they said the hardest part was the final ruck. They don't tell you the distance at the beginning but they found out later it was over 20 miles, with about 80 pounds in their rucksacks.
This is after doing nothing but rucking all the previous days too.

Basically, if you can ruck you'll make it, is what both of them have told me

Thats what I'd do

I'm 3 and a half years through a 4 year contract, and no, I won't be reenlisting for more.

The Army has taken by body, taken my time, taken my health and taken my motivation. I'm getting out and getting on with my life before it can take any more
>>
>>57442953
if you do that you are considered a traitor/deserter and can't even open a bank account
though i seriously considered poisoning the food when i worked in the kitchen

With the way the global economy is going, soon it wont be worth it to keep money in a bank, I've already taken mine out.

But go ahead and poison the food, at least get some shits and giggles and make them pay for wasting your time.

you could join the foreign legion if you ve got such a boner for joining an army
>>
>>57443933
I'm that mad on signing up to some army I would do that under a fake name (cause I know thats legal with the Legion).
Would my medical history matter if I did so?
Also,whats the story with the Spanish Foreign Legion?

They'll send you on a suicide mission

but if you survive by some chance, they'll kill you anyways...lol

Choose RM since paras end up in wheelchairs because of the constantly stress on their legs.

I dream of living out my days in silence surrounded by thick forests and have my rifle at hand to hunt.
Live in perfect silence,nothing but a few basic bits and pieces to carry me along the way. That is my one true dream.

>Would my medical history matter if I did so?
>Also,whats the story with the Spanish Foreign Legion?
The FFL will not check your medical history so if you have no obvious signs of injury or illness you can blag it. The Spanish Foreign Legion only accepts people from former Spanish colonies.
>>
>>57444166
Both are very well respected but the Paras are known to be right arrogant cunts, at least you can make mates from other services in the RM.

Want to join the military to help pay for college
>inb4 I'm 18
I don't want Navy I want to actually do shit
Don't want Air Force because I don't want to be a pilot
Any recommendations

It's my mental health history see?
I wanted to join the Royal Navy too but they'd probably catch me out in a heartbeat.

You think everyone in the airforce gets to fly a bird?

What is wrong with you exactly? Military service can fucking break you, if you are unstable as it is then you are a huge liability and a waste of resources to them.

>>57445416
No but the only combat roles in the Air Force are pilots

lol a little protip

dont be so desperate in joining some militia of strangers, especially here in eastern yurope

You'll more likely to get shot for fun, before being sadistically tortured. ;)
>>
>>57445307

Though I've only been a mere conscript, I can tell you battling mental health issues while sleep deprivated, hungry, outright pissed and extremely stressed off will not carry you far.

There are a lot of jobs in the military, so no need to toss away all hope, but I think combat roles are pretty much out of the question.

I was in the Marines, worked in intelligence (i.e. interviewing random sheepfuckers)
