Fatties are not welcomed in any service. lose 70 pounds if they suggested 40, then enter. Also dont join just because your life sucks and your going no where. I knew some of those guys and you wanted to fucking strangle them. Join because you want to kill people and blow shit up, not because the college is good or you want to "see the sights". You'll be dissapointed. Also, marines are hard core mother fuckers who are highly motivated and want nothing else than to be a good marine. Be a shit bag and they will fucking hate and destroy you.

The Army is far more laxed and "whatever" for your reasoning to join. Alot of college money kids, and i didnt have anything else to do types of people there. Most of those people dont have combat MOS's and are a drag to be around in basic. Army Infantry school is harder, and filled with fewer shit bags. Basic is 9 weeks, infantry basic is 9 weeks, 2 day pass, then 4 more weeks with the same drill sergants. If your a serious soldier in the Army, you'll want to be airborne trained and attempt for SF, rangers, or other selective elements, they weed out all college kids and so forth.

Whatever you do. Dont join in the fall/winter. Joining in the fall means it starts to get cold but you dont get issued cold weather gear thats good enough to deal with it. Boots mainly, frost bite 3 times really gets fucking old. Also if you join at a time that splits your training due to christmas break. Thats bad. I was on hold at my basic unit when the next cycle came in and they were a split cycle. My DS's were betting on who could get the most recruits to not come back from break. There method was being complete fucking dicks. I mean they were bad with our group but fuck these kids got it worse, fun to watch.

Choose wisely as it is a rather long commitment.
