Answer 1

Honestly it depends on what you want to do.  Generally I'd say the Marine Corps because it is the most well respected branch.  It is an elite branch, it does have the hardest boot camp the hardest training of all branches.  But you have to think long term, if you want to be in law enforcement I wouldn't suggest them USCG.   But as for anything else the Marine Corps is a good choice if you want an easy route to SF then join the Army, actually basically if you want it easy join the Army.  But if you want to feel like you have earned something that you belong to a community of brothers who will back you up and be there for you no matter what then the Marine Corps is for you.  

Answer 2

When you're close to enlisting ask yourself if you have the commitment to join and meet the moral, physical and mental requirements as well. Other than that you're good to go.

Answer 3

your last reason tells me you watch too many movies

Answer 4

Just Do It! Hoorah!

Answer 5

yep you sound like a marine

Answer 6

Yeah. If you dig classified ops, try out for Marine Force Recon.

Answer 7

Sweety there are many careers which could use all those qualities, not just the marine corp.  I suggest you think long and hard, and think of which one could and would be more peaceful for you.  Peace be to you.

Answer 8

"commando style raids"???? Let me refurbish your mindset since you seem to have played one too many video games. A lot of people think the word commando means super-hero, or at least something close to it. In the popular mind they're thought of as the ultimate elite soldier, the solution to every problem. The fact is, a commando is just someone trained to fight under a specific set of circumstances. He's the guy you send in when there are more bad guys than good guys, when surprise is the only advantage you can get in an operation. When it works, commandos seems unstoppable. Those are the operations that make the papers. When it doesn't work, commandos get killed just as dead as anyone else. Besides this, you sound perfect for the Marines. Just remember, that there is AN EXTREME DIFFERENCE between the military in video games and TV/MOVIES than in real life. You are risking your life, your heart, your soul, your family, your goals, your dreams, your everything, there is no turning back and the slightest mistake, the slightest miscalculation and you are done.

Answer 9

lol you're watching too many movies mate :)

As far as CO goes, try to tone it down a bit. Make it through boot camp first.
