I just got enlisted in the National Guard of Texas. yaay.
Anyways, i was just wondering if there were anyone else on Roblox that is also a Soldier. (Can be from any branch. I do not see that many people that do and the ones who claim to be are fakes.
(please do not post things like "hue hue Marines are better" and stuff like that, this post is just to see if there is any other newcomers to the service or veterans)
if you are not in the service but want to ask questions about the process of joining or anything else then you can ask them, i'm not going to try to persuade you into joining because i'm not a recruiter. |

@kitty I joined Roblox when i was around 13 so i grew up with it. It also gives you creative freedom which is another plus (Cframe, etc) And allows you to learn how to program and script.
There are not that many games that do that, Unlike GarrysMod and such but to get some of the stuff you need you need to buy other games to get the resources. |

| Well National Guard is just a free throw currently. Not much guarding other than giving humanitarian aid. I'd rather do Coast Guard in Mexico if I wanted something more outdoors. |

Actually the National Guard is a branch off of the Army, you train with the Active and Reserve the same way. Most of the Infantry of the National Guard get shipped as well. It depends on what you are going in for.
The Marines train just like the Army exept they get a few more weeks of Basic and they are taught to think they are better than everyone else for determination.
Really the National Guard and the Air Force are better choices because they give you A LOT more opportunities than the other branches. Coast Guard would give you mostly a job in an air-ambulance or a life guard, and most of those type of jobs are not given often.
The Marines would mostly be able to be Police Officers or Fire Fighters. Because the marines do not train as well other than combat.
I'm going in as a 91 Bravo (which is a light vehicle mechanic). I will have a lot more job opportunities when i get out. (did i mention they also help with paying college like the Air Force?)
And i don't think i need to explain the Air Force. They would probably be the best money-wise. But it is extremely hard to get in. You might need the Air Force, but remember the Air Force doesn't need you. |

My father is an ex-Marine. Now is a police officer, who earns 95k a year. Actually sounds pretty damn good to me. |

Erm slash... Police officers only wage between 30-60k a year and that is around the best. I know that much because i was going in a Police Academy teaching at my school where they teach and try to interest you in Law Enforcement.
Are you sure he is not in the FBI, CIA, or a Lawyer? because that would make the wage sound a little more believable (no offense) |

| I know exactly what he does. He's Lieutenant of the Theft Division. I've been there many times, I in fact, work there too as a sting decoy. I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about. |

| I sounded a bit like a jerk there, but nonetheless, it was probably well deserved. The marines are great fighters, because that's the mindset they're trained to have. Yet, you make fun of them, and you're only in the National Guard, which is by far, a HUGE step down from an actual national military branch. I mean no offense, but what you will go through, will be nothing as what the Marines go through. They make great firefighters and police officers due to the fact that they are trained, to be protectors of this country, it's people, and even the countries and people of other nations. |

I really wasn't making fun of the Marines. I only said what was true. And i said that they are mostly combat related. Which is why they lack the amount of job opportunities other than the other branches. And ive talked to several marine recruiters and all of them told me that when i asked "what can being in the marines do when i am not in the service anymore". I do not really know where you get the whole "Step down" ordeal because i am mostly going in for the opportunities, not the fact that i could kill for defending my country. And i am currently being paid well because of it.
Also, now i know you are lying because it is highly illegal to let a minor be a "sting decoy" no matter in any state. If you do not enjoy what i have to say then you do not need to be posting in this forum trying to lie. I'm not here for flame wars, end of discussion. |
