navy for the kawaii uniforms

air force and not for the obvious [as HELL] reasons

Being put on a ship in the middle of nowhere would suck

Which is more likely to get stationed in Japan?

air force has the best hotels

Space Marines

why would you wanna do that

why are you asking /jp/?

>>7441848
I'm going to go ahead and say he's more likely to meet the requirements of the Administratum, Ecclesiarchy, or Mechanicus.
OP: DO NOT JOIN THE I.G.

Join the army pansy

>>7441873
Army is for thick people, I'm cleverer than that.

>>7441841
My cousins fiancée is in the marines and hes going to japan

My dad had a stint in Okinawa while he was in the Navy. He also visited Iceland and some of Europe.

a /jp/ user wouldn't survive in the navy or airforce

join the coast guard OP

>>7441890
The Navy is pretty laid back. They aren't as physically demanding as most branches. Because you ride in a damn ship.

>>7441890

I heard a lot of Navy/Airforce and even Coast guard get sent to Iraq

>>7441946

Only if you're too stupid to do basic jobs and joined a particular branch just to avoid being deployed.

Marines. Space Marines are acceptable as well.

We have the best uniforms, what other reason is there?

>>7441953

Marines have the best dress, but Seamen have the best work uniforms. When did you serve?

Airforce

why the fuck would you join the navy?

>>7441978

Why wouldn't you?

>murrican military

My dad's in the navy and he's been to Japan several times due to his deployments. His pay is also ridiculous because he works with the nuclear engine of a submarine. One of his re-enlistment bonuses was $60,000. I think his last one was somewhere around $20,000.

If you're at all good at math/science, try going for the Navy's nuclear program. That bonus pay is nice.

Of course, the Air Force is probably better if you don't want to be stuck out in the ocean forever. I'm thinking of joining the AF myself.

>>7441994
>britshits opinions

If you join Navy, you will spend your deployment on a ship sleeping in a tiny little bunk and have no privacy, but you get to go all kinds of sweet places. You will probably get to go to Japan because you get to sail all over the place. You also will not just do your main job, but will also be trained how to pretty much do many of the other jobs on the boat.

If you join the Air Firce, you will eat catered food, and sleep in dorms. You will likely have your own room but will share a bathroom with someone else. The Air Force rooms are much like college dorms. Your deployment could be anywhere really, but there are 3 bases near Japan and a few in Colorado and Colorado is really nice.

I would join Chair Force since its the most military-unlike service.

Navy uniforms are sweet as hell though.

I've been wanting to get the balls up to join the Air Force just so I can finally go places and have a job and get fed and clothed and have them take care of me, instead of living in my room, but I don't know if I will be able to handle the lack of privacy and dorm checks.

I don't think I could be away from /jp/ that long. You guys are my only friends.

Classy as fuck.

Navy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVMHaJkR2DY

So do you actually need to be able to fly a plane to join the Air Force?
Drive a boat to join the Navy?

>>7442078

Really?

>>7442078

Seriously? No, not even remotely.
For example, the air wing of a Nimitz carrier employs around 2500 people but less than 100 pilots.

Navy.

>Join army

You want to be someone's dog? You want to support endless cycle of war, be there ready to fight for hypocrisy and greediness of men?

They give you shelter and food but they wouldn't never i mean NEVER think twice of using you.

>>7442078
In the Air Force, only those who have 4 year degrees and go in as an officer can fly planes. I think enlisdted guys can be loadmasters and flight engineers and serve on cargo planes though. I don't even think you have to parachute during basic if u want to join the AF, nor know how to swim unless you do air crew.

In the Navy, I have no idea, but I know you have to be able to swim, which makes sense.

In the Air Force myself, shit sucks, but it's not necessarily difficult. There are physical requirement of course, though. When I went through boot camp, I believe it was 45 pushups, and 50 situps at one minute each, and run a mile and a half in under 12 minutes? Perhaps it was 12:30. However, I'm pretty sure they cut it down to normal Air Force standards now, you only need 33 pushups, 43 situps, and 1.5 mile in under 13:33.

Also, know that you don't really get to choose your base. you have what they call a "dream sheet" of the top 8 American, and 8 overseas bases you want. I've lived in California almost all my life, and I've liked it, so I filled up my sheet with the five California bases, and three other west coast bases. And they threw my ass in Idaho.

But once you complete you job training, you can volunteer for things like a two year postal service job in lieu of your "real" job, and they're all in places like Germany, Italy, Korea, and of course Japan. Waiting on my transfer to Yokoto in a month and a half because of that, actually.

>>7442120
>implying the navy/chair force = the army

>>7442129
>Yokoto
Jesus christ, I need to proofread. The base is called Yokota.

>>7442129

what is your job?

Reported.

Fuck the military. Serving the government and "protecting" normals? No thanks.

How come all that serve or claim to serve in the military are such awful posters? Reaction images, image macros, bumping off-topic threads... seriously.

I know a guy who had literally nothing but a high school diploma and a trunk of clothes.
He took a bunch of federal loans, got a geology degree, and joined the navy as an officer.
He writes weather reports for a living and in 3 years his federal loans will be forgiven.

>>7442154

>>7442148
listen to this man.

>>7442165

Fascinating.

>>7442166
What a cute pony.

>>7442140
Well im sure that they dont jog and shoot there for just sports.

>>7442165

All I see you do is shitpost.

Is an accounting degree of any use in the armed forces

>>7442206
I have to ask now... who are you, and what did I do to you?

Anyone other members of the military scared of displaying their figures? Can't find the resolution to open mine up, the fear of resentment makes me hesitant.

If you go air force avoid getting assigned to security forces.

That is all.

>>7442250
>Anyone other members of the military scared of displaying their figures?
>Can't find the resolution to open mine up
Open up what, your shirt?

>>7442250
Hell no, mine are right on my shelf.

Of course, no one ever goes to my room anyway, so it works out nicely.

>>7442214
If you have a bachelor's degree, you can start out as an officer (i.e. make more than minimum wage) regardless of your major.

this thread has inspired me.

how do I join the air force?

>>7442310
Need to have graduated Highschool. They don't accept GEDs.

Do well on the asvab. 80+ for the good jobs.

Don't have any serious health problems.

>>7442129
Haha, oh wow. After 10 push-ups, I start shaking. My arms literally won't work anymore by the 15th. Same for sit-ups. My high-school mile time was 12 minutes.
Those requirements are ridiculous.

>>7442333
>They don't accept GEDs

Yes they do.

>>7442347
Not really, work on it once a day and you'll be in shape within a month or two.

>>7442350
Well, they do, but you need a waiver. The Air Force is especially stingy about giving them out these days so it's not really something you can count on.

>>7442347
A lot of people start out like this, and it's only natural if it's something you aren't used to doing regularly. You'd have no problem within a month of exercising.

>>7442347
Easiest military standards, with the exception of the Navy.

There was a guy in my boot camp flight who was like you, those eight weeks of bullshit got him to the requirements. Longest goddamn eight weeks of my life, still remember it clearly three years ago.

That's because the air force has less grunt positions. If you have a GED, get ready to be cannon fodder.

>>7442418
The asvab score is what decides that, which is basically an SAT.

Weighs you on aptitudes of Maintenance, Administration, General, and Electric, if memory serves me. So really, even if you were a straight A AP student, if you don't score over a 75 on that test, I hope you enjoy menial labor.

bump

why not join the french foreign legion?

>>7442962
only if OP isn't afraid to get his teeth knocked out by a sadistic french sergeant in training then sent to an african jungle to kill darkies

>>7442962
Not alpha enough.

What are your chances of seeing combat in the Navy/Air force?

>>7442962
Don't you need to actually be in France in the first place/get there on your own to even attempt to enlist?

Do you like dicks, or dicks

>>7443027
From what I have heard, the Navy is pretty relaxed compared to the others.

>>7443068

don't know about the Navy personally, but the Coast Guard is very relaxed. you have to volunteer to go overseas also.

>>7443068
navy is horrid
Take it from somebody who did time in the navu.

N.a.v.y
Never again volunteer yourself

>>7443027
seeing as no one we're at war with has a navy or an air force I'd say pretty low

I'm thinking of speaking with a recruiter. It's not like I have anything better to do.

I'm most interested in becoming a linguist. During WWII, the Army trained my grandfather in Japanese for a few months, but the war ended and he opted to spend the remainder of his service doing menial work on a base. I know Japanese linguists still exist in the Army, though I highly doubt they're in any kind of demand. I'd really rather not get stuck learning some form of Arabic. Assuming you score high enough on the DLAB, do they allow you to choose your language?

>>7442333
Do you need to do the asvab if you have a bachelors degree? I have a BS in Environmental Science but the job market is completely dried up so I think I'll just join the military to get some sort of job.

Im I in /k/?

CHAIR FORCE is probably the most suitable for /jp/-types.

>>7443206
Only one I'd ever consider thinking about trying to join.

check out this here picture /jp/

Uniforms: Marines > Navy > Army > AirForce
Chill-as-fuck factor: Air Force > Navy > Army > Marines
Base locations: Navy > Marines > Army > Air Force

If Marine recruiters say you can be stationed in Japan, what they actually mean is Okinawa. Okinawa does not equal Japan. Okinawa, specifically Naha, is a tiny mosquito-bitten island that you can see in one day if you have a car. If you're thinking about getting with Okinawan girls, you are either: A) wanting to experience all those STDs for yourself, or B) you have a healing factor like Wolverine or something, and you're immune to disease. Double wrap that shit if you take the plunge in Okinawa.

Air Force and Navy both have substantial bases on mainland Japan. Yet another reason to join the chill services, as opposed to Hooah Army or OORAH Marines.

what about the marines?

>>7443232

good way to die

>>7443235
How very Japanese.

>>7442129
Linguist here, shit fucking sucks.

I'm too scared of being screamed at by instructors. Otherwise I would have considered joinin.

I'm not eligible for the military on account of having OCD and shit and needing lots of psych meds

which is a bummer I guess

>>7443275
>which is a bummer I guess

What the fuck are you on about?

Joining the military is one of the most normalfag, stupid things a person could possibly do. I can't believe how fucking idiotic you guys are.

>>7443280

>>7443280
my younger brother is going to the air force academy though

it's a fucking sweet gig and I envy him for it

>being murrikan

yup

>>7443294
now, you really think that I'll believe you're a woman?

>>7443294
As I said, that makes you a foolish idiot.

What is this thread? The moron NEETs who actually care about their idiot families not being proud of them along with military recruitment trolls who can barely spell?

guys, do you understand that being in the army means that you have to obey without possibility of reply, be your government hand, risking your life for it and its economy, and killing people risking of being killed yourself?
just as reminder, I'm really not partial about being a soldier. military force is a necessity...but it have a price. remember it

>>7443306

what reasons would you have to not believe that that is my actual picture?

>>7443311
>moron NEETs who actually care about their idiot families not being proud of them

I never said anything about that.

After he makes it through the academy, he's got it made.

Once he finishes short bit of training he suddenly outranks every enlisted man in the military.

And the military academies are top tier schools. Which pay you to go to them.

If he wants to go to grad school or med school or something after finishing the academy, the military will pay for his tuition.

Then once he's gotten his fantastic, free education he's bound to the military for a few years. But when he's able to quit he's got some fantastic career choices open to him.

Seriously nothing looks good on a resume like "I've graduated from a military academy"

>>7443324

who said anything about joining the army?

>>7443330
Please just go back to whatever board you came from, normalfag. For fuck sake.

>>7443339
right, I'm sorry

no one should aspire to be anything more than a NEET

and if, heaven forbid, I actually place some value on college and jobs, I certainly don't belong here

>>7443344
The military is little more than another form of welfare these days. If you take it any further than that, you need to leave.

>>7443351

why?

I can't believe that no one's posted Mari-tan ITT.

>>7443415
lol

Joined AF - leg got fucked up a few days before Basic was out, spent 4 months in med hold and then they rush me out the door 2 days before 6 months so I have to leave with an erroneous discharge and they don't have to pay.

The excuse: "You must have injured your leg before, so it's really not our fault this time, since it was probably weaker."

Fuck the government.

HELL YEAH USSR!

>>7443240
Really? I'm kind of looking forward to it, but there's such little information out there about the actual job. Still at DLI and have a long time to go.

But then I'm a Marine so my job might be way different from Air Force anyway.

Oh of course it's Anon hating on the military.

Sure bro, you go on and insult all the fine men and women in uniform who are in Afghani-chan right now busting their balls for you. There are legions of haji's there who want to kill you and your family, but our fine military kills them before they can fly over here and kill you.

I hope you have a heart attack while you're masturbating to your favorite kusoge tonight.

>>7443456

Good luck in the army /jp/

Have some info

Air force is good if you want to be a part of the chair force and browse /jp/ all day.

And to all the haters in this thread, there is an alarming number of NEETs, hikkis, and otakus in the military that join for free food and shelter when they run out of money or get kicked out by their parents.

What will you do if you run completely out of cash or get kicked out by your parents, /jp/? Besides open a portal.

I don't hate the military. But it's a last last resort option for me. If I can't get work or I get kicked out, I'll become a hobo. If being a cool hobo doesn't work out and I really need to survive, then military will be my last option.

>>7443469
I wish.

Then maybe we wouldn't be in debt.
We should just be imperial and steal everyone else's resources. WHOSE GONNA STOP US?!
Europe? Pfffftt
China? They would be our best allies and be alongside us if we decided to plunder the world. We will just split Africa in half.

>>7443482
>>7443482
You will. You can also give it a name if you want to.

>>7443484

You do take resources but only the Jews get them.

lol'd at butthurt euros itt

does your country even have a military?

join the airforce, bro
my friends said it's baller, you get to fly your own jets and shit

the army is pretty cool too

>>7443484
>Then maybe we wouldn't be in debt.
What happens when the Chinese won't lend us any more? Does our power structure collapse, or is that just wishful thinking?

hey /jp/

what's bmt like? what do you do after bmt?

>>7443494

Do you even have a brain?

>>7443499
>What happens when the Chinese won't lend us any more?
They won't
>Does our power structure collapse
Nah
But if for some reason it did, most of the world's, especially China's, would also collapse.

You guys are fucking morons.

Seriously, you carry on about hatred of normals, then respect such stupid shit as the military. Hired killers for the people who establish and keep the wheels and cogs of normalfaggotry well lubed.

Its also worth noting the pro-military posters in the thread post like morons. I hope this is some type of /jp/ irony and not people who will actually reply to a post with "lol". And people who say there are a shocking amount of "NEETs" in a paid position.. ?

Joining any type of defense force is one of the most retarded things a person can do. I hope all of you who join die the death you deserve, before you kill other humans who don't want anything to do with you or OUR disgusting culture. Not that their culture and superstitions are any good, but anyways.

>>7444582

lol

>>7444608
Dont just laugh in disagreement but justify your opinion or else you'll be another ignorant fuck that this world has already more than it can bear.

Go FFL. Pussyfied eurofag military = less hard than US military, but you'll still be able to say you ran around in uniform with a gun.
Just don't get into any fights with marines when you get back to the states, they'll eat you raw.

>>7444582
No one really cares about that shit. It's just that the military is easier than finding a real job, so long as you avoid getting sent to the world's sandy asscrack.

>>7444582
5/10

>>7444582
Obviously from /a/. No one from /jp/ gives a shit about that and plenty of /jp/ers have been forced into the military after being being term NEET due to their parents forcing them.

It's a job that gives you a lot of skills and won't simply "fire" you if you get in, instead they train you for various stuff which is very useful.

Fuck off, deathpimps.

>>7444582
How's Westboro going faggot?

...well, the only thing I can say here, I just prefer becoming a outlaw and maybe end up jailed that go military and obey some other fucker. maybe it's stupid, that's what kept me away from it till now...I can't stand orders and hierarchy...

>this thread
The stupid, it burns.

>>7444819
take it easy xD

If you join the Air Force, you probably will be deployed at least once on a four year contract.

But as long as you are a non combat job, it's just a pain in the ass, you have more risk of being killed walking around a ghetto in America at night. I believe it was reported five military personnel were killed by a rocket in Iraq today, that number is the largest they've seen at once in like two goddamn years. We're in war, and five people dying at once is a shock, that's the current battle climate.

But it does suck ass, because you spend 6 months in the shitty desert. You make fucking bank off the extra combat and danger pay, at least. Used all that extra cash on some figurines I missed out on, so I guess it was worth it.

>>7444704
Very clever. The irony of your post is that your ignorance outshines theirs.

>>7444685
Claiming I am from /a/ is a foolish attempt at ad hominem and most people will see this. You only make yourself look like a fool and an ape. Who are these skills useful to? Yourself? Or are you still stupid enough to believe the skills you pick up that apparently benefit yourself really benefit you, and not the government and society?

Nobody has offered an argument against this post. You are all slaves of your government and are stupid enough to sign yourselves over to such an institution for money and social security. Pathetic.

>>7444835
well, I'm of your exact opinion, but your tone was too aggressive to avoid those responses.
yeah, I could put up a long disussion about ethics, education and such, but I'm far too old, and experience taught me that as most people doesn't noticed, humanity haven't evolved from when it slept into caves. this implies that every generation will endlessly debate on the same topic and...
whatever.
everybody does what the fuck he wants. follow the rules, don't follow the rules, guys DO THE FUCK YOU WANT until you're young.
death comes before you notice.

>>7444835
I'll take this further too.

I am an ignorant idealist, I will admit this from the start. But I am a pacifist, and I am sickened by the military and the fact they believe they are doing some type of good when they are actually killing other people.

The countries you are invading have the same view of you as the you have of the terrorists who commited 9/11. You've not only invaded, but bombarded their countries from the air and left many people dead. It is no wonder they don't like you, Americans. It is no wonder the rest of the world is disgusted when your "leaders" claim it is a holy war and defend these atrocities in the name of something as childish as religion.

One of my good friends is in the army and I say these things to him all the time. The sad thing is he agrees and is conflicted because he doesn't want to hurt anyone. But of course, he has no other option, coward politicians declare war and people like him have to go and fight and potentially die because, as some of you have pointed out, some people have no other choice. And yet you still say this like it is something beyond criticism or even good! The fact that there exists a service where if you can't find a job you have the opportunity to be a hand of government and potentially die is a good thing!

Fucking hell.

>>7444866
I understand that, but what else am I supposed to do on a place like 4chan? Where if you actually write something with substance you get responded to with image macros and other retarded shit because the people you are talking to are to stupid to offer an a valid argument.

I know I am shitposting and carrying on like an idiot, and I shouldn't do it. But I really dislike all of this business and I hate to see this bullshit on here. I don't even understand why it hasn't been deleted.

...in this moments, I really feel the urge of talk to you irl, with a beer at hand. talking about stuff like this here, I don't know, I feel awkward...
ehhh...

>>7444875
>>7444886
>I understand that, but what else am I supposed to do on a place like 4chan?

For all of your convictions and ideals, you're complicit in the system you're condemning. Obviously there's a great difference between the culpability of a soldier shooting an enemy and a man paying sales tax on a candy bar, but wars aren't paid for by the politicians. The active participants in the military are a small, small percentage of a nation's manpower. The military is only able to go and kill people in other nations because of the passive support from those paying for it without complaint.

You're not doing anything to change or dismantle the system, and are likely supporting it through taxes. You seem very, very angry. Why not use that anger for something constructive and join an international aid organization or become involved in local politics? Most people aren't responding not because your cutting argument left them completely stumped, but because your posts are filled with the sort of bluster and indignation you would expect of someone on youtube. If you care so deeply about an issue, do something about it instead of complaining on Japan General.

This is /jp/. Take it easy.

>>7444932
well, I was going to say something like that too, but you said it in a much better easy manner...
...fucking motherlanguagers, easy...

>>7444932
I accept your criticism of my tone, but as you said I am angry. I'm not so worried how people on here perceive me to be honest, and I am not using much restraint when it comes to posting.

I am involved in local movements and support the political parties I do support. I know how to take it easy, believe me, I just don't think this bullshit belongs on here so I'm not worried about my tone or the way I post, or the responses I don't get, to be honest.

The fact of the matter is, the government recruits people of without work, in order to fight and die for them. Throughout that ordeal, people of other nations may also die. I am very disturbed by this and it makes me sad. Finding glory in war is one of the most foolish things I could imagine.

I'll leave this thread now anyways. It doesn't belong here and if I keep posting the way I am some idiot will reply to me bumping it.

>>7444932

Remember a thread on /k/ a while back suggesting the thought of a world where schools have all the money they need, but the air force needs to hold a bake sale to fund their trip to Iraq.

Also remember doing some calculations and concluding I only need to sell 35 million cinnamon rolls to buy myself a Flanker - fuel, ammunition and shipping to Sweden not included.

Better start baking.

>>7444926
I said I would leave, however..

I share the same sentiment. I really hate talking about these things online, we lose many things communicating only through text. I'm drunk now anyway, which probably adds to my brazen manner of posting, but oh well.

The military is normalfagshit and none of you belong here.

>>7444981
eh, I miss my highschool times mostly for conversations like this. most times they ended with punches in the eyes, but they really helped me learning to accept others. and it worked for my ex-friends too, I guess...
...well, I don't think i will post anymore, I'll just sit here, drinking my Guinness, and remembering when my best friend was still alive...
bye for now, /jp/.

>>7444973
>Finding glory in war is one of the most foolish things I could imagine.
Nobody is glorifying war in this thread. You're really barking up the wrong tree here; the people in this thread only see the military as a good source of income. They don't care if they're being 'exploited' to fuel an unethical war. All they care about is their figure collection and the next season of anime.

>>7445133
