I couldnt have said it better myself......I joined the army 6 years ago after High school, been deployed 3 times as a helicoptor crew chief.....yeah its not what i really wanted to do but it kept me in aviation and I will be getting out with GI bill and College fund in hand along with the money i saved up in iraq. It hasnt been an easy road and Ive dodged some bullets for the country but I was in the same boat as you....No money and No hope....military isnt that bad.....seriously think about it....
