    Some of the best women I have known either are or were at one time in the armed forces. If you wanted to do that, you'd be doing your country a great service. It's tough, though. I never did because based on my schoolwork they'd stick me behind a desk and I wanted a combat unit.

    If you join the Cadets you will learn whether you like the regimentation or just hate it, before you really sign up.

    Reading below, if it's a family tradition, I think you'll do just fine.

    If you really want to, definetely..
    but what are your reasons...? Even if u understand what you're getting yourself into it's still dangerous and life-changing...something you shouldn't do for the wrong reasons. I see no problem with it..as long as you're sure and your reasons are..legit.

    Not a bad choice for any young person.

    But consider the other services first. Not everyone can stand days with no warm food or shelter. In peace time I had exercises where a shower could not be had for a month or more. Plus a skill that better suits your talents may exist in a different service.

    My son has the flattest feet I've ever seen, so I recomended either the Air Force or Navy for him. Marching 30 miles or more in a day would lame him, so the Army and Marines, my familys main service's, are not for him. So consider every branch and your talents.

    (P.S.) I missed that you are Canadian. Just so you know, I served with quit a few Canadians in the U.S. Army. I never asked them why they came South to join.

    Depends on your purpose for joining. If you have an ideal of "defend the nation and Constitution", I suggest that you don't join. If you are just wanting to join an organization that will pay you, send you to college if you survive, and teaches you structure and how to obey commands, it might be for you. I say this because of the way our military is being used around the world. If it weren't being used as a mercenary police force, but was still as a defensive organization to protect We the People and the Constitution, I might encourage your joining. I just hope you seriously contemplate the consequences and what it means by joining, so that you don't end up like so many returning soldiers who are depressed and suicidal because they thought they were doing something noble, only to find they were just tools in the hands of globalist warmongers.

    I just looked down at it looks like you're talking about the Canadian military? I don't know how extensively they're used in this game of world dominion, but I'd still carefully weigh the consequences.

    DON'T, RUN AWAYYYYYY.

    But all in all seriousness if you can handle it go for it. Make sure you are prepared for what you are getting into is the only warning I can give you.

    Oh, joining the military, you definitely will. I don't think there are too many people who be disappointed.

    People who think that you are not good enough are not worth your time. Never let anybody make you think you are not good enough. You are good enough.
