I have mixed feelings about this. My initial thoughts are that it is an honorable choice that can make you into a man. But then I stop and think that I know nothing of you. I do not know where you are at mentally.
My son has a brother-in-law that just got back from Iraq. We have been FB friends for a while so I was there for him on FB while he was there. He sounded very depressed and talked all this [suicidal] crap. My son informed me that the guy wasn't even in combat but was training Iraqis to be cops.
Since he has returned all his updates talk about being unable to get work, and considering going back. I guess the point of that story is to go in to get trained for something that there is demand for in the real world. There are not a lot of cop jobs available where he lives, so being an MP probably not a great idea. Sniper might be fun, but not a lot of real world application. So if you are going to do it, do it smart. Pick an area that will get you a good job when you get out.
