Joining Army At 16
 

So what the rules of joining army at the age of 16 is it just the Reserve or what?

i think if you join at 16 you finish school and do army stuff

Im pretty sure you can apply and get accepted into a army/navy academy at that age, but as far as actually paticipating I would imagine not.

I know when my dad joined long ago, you just had to have parental permission.

You can join the National Guard at 17, that's pretty much it. In the USA at least.

You can join the British Army at the age of 16

You go to the RTFC and train until your 18.

Well im Canada and ill show you what the airforce site says [url:38608]http://www.airforce.gc.ca/cardocs/pilotFAQ_e.htm#10[/url:38608]

I joined the army at 17. I needed my parents sig. I went to the testing center and took my entry tests....got my score based on that and available slots is what they offer you for a MOS. I signed up April of my senior year. Didnt leave until Nov. Thats when the next class was starting in my MOS. Then 4 yrs in the army. Hope this helps.

What did you join as just basic infatry?

No, that really was not what i was looking for. I joined as 98C (Signals Intell Analyst) It was alot of fun. As an Infantrymen (34B, I think) You would prolly only have to sign up for 2 yrs.

cadets...

Cool kinda like what i am looking at

My dream lol

Well the job description had alot of simularity to what i did. It also looks like you'd be getting a Security Clearance w/ that MOS. That mean a backround check, believe me when i say they are thourgh. They talked to old girlfriends/co-workers/bosses/teachers/friends....not to scare you or any thing...heh GooD Luck
