See the world, do some good, my daughter earned a couple medals for humanitarian efforts in the Philippines, it's something that a modern aircraft carrier is built for, it can power a city with one of it nuclear reactors, filter drinking water from the ocean, portable airport for incoming supplies and a full surgical team.
People would ask me if I was concerned about her safety, My reply was she was safer on that air craft carrier than she would have been in some of the cities in the US.

When she first started thinking about the military, I told her that part of the uniform for the army was a bullet proof vest and helmet and asked her why they had to wear that, she started leaning to wards the Navy really fast!

To many times people will say shit about our military like that asshole PJ, who was probably frightened by a clown at the circus at an early age.
It's dangerous , but so is most things in the world, if you raised your kids right, their chances are better for surviving life.

Like ADG, I'm a vet. I can tell you it will change who you are, you will be stronger, the friends you left behind will seem less interesting to you. You will be better prepared for life. There are those that can't handle it, if you can imagine being put in a nuclear powered can thats designed to sink with enough fire power to wipe out a country!!

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
