Re: Military Questions
I work with wounded warriors and I think the biggest con (that I've seen) is that these folks are left waiting and waiting and waiting for their ratings, medboards and basically discharge pay. Which is why they end up with us (we provide temporary housing for wounded warriors and their families).
So.. don't get injured. :P Otherwise, the pro that I can see is these guys don't regret for one second serving their country, despite the fact they've lost limbs and I know they've met career networking folks, brothers and mentors for life. Really you HAVE to be dedicated and understand that things can go wrong. Sometimes guys get completely destroyed in just the training part of joining (someone was once injured when their Humvee rolled during a training drill) and never make it to active duty.
