Driving a Tank for the Army?

Which is better overall, Army or Marines?Depends on you more than them, like another individual said. The Marines think even the eqipment the Army throws in the trash is still good for fighting with. Then again the Marine have done well with so little for so long you have to admire the Pappy Boington's of the Marines. Their by the book people I am not sure of— — — — — —Army serviceDuring World War I he served with the Australian Imperial Force in France as a gunner and then as a warrant officer, class 1, with the Army Education Service— — — — — —If you are over the weight standards, the Army wont let you join at all right?Well first off Sophia M is an idiot that does not get the idea the Army is a great place to learn and train. I guess in her opinion only losers join the Army even though many great Americas have come from the military where they gain confidence and respect for their service. You can get a waiver for up to 2 problems which things like prior drug use or certain tattoos can count against you.— — — — — —Should I join the army?12n is just construction worker well technically it's horizontal construction enginerr. You drive a bulldozer and other heavy machinery, you just do not know wear the bull dozer will be. Could be a CONUS base, could be in the sand box.

Marines have different dress codes than the Army has. It's a very nice ring tho, I am sure he will enjoy getting it from you.— — — — — —Deciding on joining the army.......?be a combat engineer in the army— — — — — —I really want to join either the Air Force or the Army, PLEASE HELP! (more info inside)?Hi Annie, Honestly I prefer the Army. Our deployments are 12 months long. However, when you come back you usually have a nice cushion in the bank. Great enlistment bonuses, and promotion opportunities. Also, we always have vaccancy ;) Air Force is more on the technical side of the military. No enlistment bonuses, and right now it's hard to get in. If you can do it though, go for it.— — — — — —What are the funding differences between the US Army and Marine Corps?The biggest difference between the Army and the USMC is that the Army is a separate branch of the Armed Forces; The Marine Corps is a branch of the U.S. Navy. As far as the funding gap goes, the Marines get only what the Navy lets them have. Your Marine friend should take this up with the Department of the Navy.— — — — — —Should I join the Army or the Marine Corps?Well, the Marines is to the Navy what the Army is to the Air Force. The question really is: 1)How hard do you want to work? The Marines run their people until they drop, and the AIRBORNE units in the Army does that. The Navy SEALS runs till they drop. The rest of the services use common sense and realize that dying doing PT is NOT helpfull to completing the mission. 2)The Marine Corp has the Navy do a lot of their dental work or medical work. The Army is self contained, same with the Air Force. Coast Guard normally "dusts off" one of their wounded people to one of the hospitals they work with. So the real quesiton is- do you want to hop and pop shoot and scoot, or do you want to do a civilian style job?
