Poll! Would you join the Army?

How about "I wouldn't enlist now, and I don't support the Iraqi war, but under some circumstances I would support war, and may even enlist"?
 
I submitted my application to the AF Officers Program as a Network Admin, or Finance Analyst but they said they were not taking anyone applying for that position. Weird answer...since there was an upcoming war and my scores were WAY over the average. This was two months ago....

oh ya, and you forgot the option "im at a point in my life where it would be impossible for me to enlist due to prior engagements, but since this is a hypothetical question i would enlist, and do support hte war in iraq"

Ok, what answer do I pick then? I would have enlisted to fight WWII, but I don't support the war in Iraq.

i wasnt ridiculing your option, it just sounded funny because it had a lot of stipulations 😛

unfortunately, I was permenantly disqualified from military service due to a knee injury... 🙁

Me too...but it's because I'm missing a kidney 🙁 Guess I'm defective goods.
 
I would enlist in a heartbeat. Haven't done it, because I promised my wife I wouldn't join. Damn promises...
 
How about one that says, "I already did my time and would get back in", or "I already did my time, would not re enlist for this war", or even "I've fought in a war already and don't want to do it again?"
 
If I were 18-25 and unmarried right now, I would join. Unfortunately, I'm older than that, married, and probably wouldn't last a week in boot before I blew out a knee (I have two bad knees and two bad ankles from playing sports) 😀

In all seriousness, one of my regrets in life was letting my parents talk me out of enlisting when I was coming out of high school.

I support the Iraq war and I am enlisted and I am not safe at home

Tech Controller, eh? I remember you guys... everything was always your fault 😉 Of course, Tech Control always said everything was Satcom's fault... 🙂
 
I would enlist if I thought I were needed (i.e. if I thought this would become something like WWII, which I do not believe that it will). In the event that I were drafted (assuming that the draft were re-instated) I would willingly go and I would not give anything less than 100% of my abilities and my efforts.

Anyone who would not go if called does not deserve the benefits of living in this country. "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." --Thomas Paine
