Pros of The Military Service
Pros of Joining the Military: While in the military, you’ll probably have the chance to learn extremely useful computer, logistical, and mechanical skills. You may also have the opportunity to travel, allowing you to learn about other countries and cultures. The military can help give you a clear direction if you aren’t sure what you want to do with your life, and the discipline it teaches you can help you better survive in the “real world.”
Cons of The Military Service:
The military requires a lot of work, especially in the beginning. Don’t hesitate to question recruiters and other soldiers so you know what to expect.
