[B]I'd like to give you some advice:[/B] [LIST] [*] Aim down the sight to increase your accuracy. [*] Shooting while crouched increases your accuracy [*] Switching to your sidearm is always quicker than reloading [*] You can shoot through thin objects like plywood [*] Look out for grenades [*] Look out for burning cars [*] And aim your rocket launcher at the enemy [/LIST] [editline]3:54[/editline] Oh, don't forget to aim down the sight.

[QUOTE=Riptide;22410629]flashbang through the door[/QUOTE] Shoot the targets!
a lot of negativity in this thread.. lol to all you idiots, joining the military is one of the smarter options in today's economy going to college and shelling out 25-30 thousand dollars no longer guarantees you a job anymore; with the military you get decent pay and they will pay for a large chunk of your education once you get out. it is very easy to not get into a combat job and OP you're making a good decision good luck out there
25-30k just for college? Where the fuck are you going?
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;22410248]No, not quite. I'd say it's more for people who are gullible enough to buy the "honor and glory" bullshit that's spouted at them.[/QUOTE] This, have fun getting shot OP :keke: [QUOTE=DarkSpider;22410259]I'm joining because you get a lot of free shit. Your entire paycheck is essentially spending money.[/QUOTE] That's right, [U]taxpayer [/U]money

[QUOTE=Reborn9;22410775]This, have fun getting shot OP :keke: [/QUOTE] I'm not going to be in combat.
how'd you do on the asvab, OP?
[QUOTE=siberpredaht;22410897]how'd you do on the asvab, OP?[/QUOTE] I don't remember. I qualified for every job, and my line scores were fairly high. I think I got an 89.
so are you going to be at a base,boat,plane?
Good luck OP
Though I am not from the USA, I wish you the best of luck. :) You must be brave to join the military, even if you probably won't be deployed. Tell us how it goes when you come back, right? Oh yes, does your job involve working with satellites? :tiphat:
[QUOTE=tittles;22411000]so are you going to be at a base,boat,plane?[/QUOTE] Basic is in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri AIT is in Fort Huachuca, Arizona
I won't give you respect for joining an organization that is intended to kill people. In my eyes you are scum.
Yes, I will work with satellites.
[QUOTE=TEH_TPMASTER;22411140]Yes, I will work with satellites.[/QUOTE] Must be fun to be able to spy on anyone provided you have their postcode.
Good luck :patriot:

Make sure you don't mark friendlies as enemies.
Good thing you are fighting an actual threat to our freedom, you are a good man. I feel bad for those who died defending someone else's country, but we are good allies. :/

Remember, if they have snatch landrovers they're not Iraqi armoured columns, those are British convoys. Good luck out there, anyway. Try not to piss off anyone above you (pr0tip)
Good luck man Facepunch Salutes you.
