I've always wanted to join the Military since I was young. It runs in my family- my Grandpa was a Marine, my Grandma was in the NAVY, my uncle was in the NAVY, my Dad tried the Marines, and my mom has been to a NAVY boot camp. I would be the first one of my two other siblings to do it, but I don't know which branch is right for me.
I'm 19 years old, and in my first semester of college for a Biological Sciences major, and I am really hoping to continue my education until I get at least my B.A., preferably an M.A.
I've looked into the Coast Guard because they have a school that has Environmental Science as one of its majors, as well as a Band program (I also do music).
Would this be a good choice for me? I know there are lots of you out there that are in the Military, and I'm hoping some of you might be able to help me out. I'm looking for a branch that will educate me, rather than get me ready for combat.
I haven't talked to a recruiter yet because I need to lose some weight first. I would feel awkward going up there now, and then hear them tell me that I need to lose about 40lbs. I'd rather lose the weight first so I don' have to hear crap about it when I talk to them.
I hope you guys can help me out! This is something I really want to do to better myself, my future, and to help our country...
