Don't they all work as a team?

I am doing Army ROTC right now, but I don't see how any other service is better or worse when you are working as a team on the battlefield.

Working as a team is important, yes. But I'd much rather be the snipe-your-ass-from-800-yards teammate than I would be guard-the-local-base's-gate teammate.

You say that now, but talk to a sniper and ask him about all his training he went through. The specialized stuff they go through is :Q

Yeah, I don't want to be a sniper because I can't handle being trained to be one.

If I wanted to just pull a trigger, I'd go play paintball.

It just isn't one of my goals to become a sniper. I would much rather fly an Apache or do MI. Those are my chosen professions in the military. GPA has to be pretty high to get into aviation...gotta put more work into school. Got a 4.0 last semester, so it shouldn't be that bad if I keep my mind to it

My Ass Rides In Navy Equipment - and that's because the Marines are an extension of the Navy.

And the first to go in and the last to leave.

Good luck! Is it easier to get into a flight position for helecopters or jets?

For many, the answer is yes.

True. But audible attacks temporarily distract the mind. That's the whole point.

marines are not hardcore, recon marines, not thats hardcore. if you are strong and smart, and into action, you go airborne and ranger. and you dont have to be a marine to go to sniper school. if you prefer to take it easy, MI is the way to go, unless they ship you behind enemy lines. RLTW

What sound does $hit make when it hits a fan blade?














MARINE!!!!

PS - It's a better joke when it's spoken.

Maybe Marines teach sniper school for Marine snipers, but the Army teaches snipers from everywhere I believe.

Army Sniper School

I apologize for my ignorance...I should have known that...weird...after doing some reading, I really thought that even the army people go through the marine training course...I might have to do a little more research.

Maybe someone can help me out here, but which groups hate each other the most? For example I had a buddy who used to be a marine. He said that if they were at a bar and the Navy boys were there they usually got into a fight with them...unless the army was there, then the navy and marines joined together to fight the army guys. I might have that mixed up and I don't know where the air force fits in that mix either....can someone help me out?

I'm X-Navy, after we kicked the sh*t outta the Army guys we would see the Air Force pu**ies running away.
