Is there a C option? Acting is a horrible idea. There are so many things that can go wrong with planning a military career before you even join. Assuming you're 100% medically qualified and able to get a TS security clearance, you have to make it through all the training without injury, survive initial qual, on the job training, and finally be operationally certified. The slightest hiccup in any of those puts an immediate squash on everything, and you have the potential to be reassigned "based on the needs of the Navy." Finally, you run the risk of being assigned something that has absolutely nothing to do with your job for all four years, you will get nada for experience, and no one in the big blue Navy will care. You must be comfortable with being nothing but a line number on a spreadsheet. I recommend coming up with a list of 4-5 jobs you'd want in the military, and base your decision on that. The ONE IDEA (r) concept in the military rarely works out. Also as for money, junior enlisted is alright for an 18 year old, but don't expect to be throwing stripper parties. xaarman fucked around with this message at 16:10 on Oct 19, 2014 |

You've done the best you can when you give them all relevant information, and let them run along on their merry little way into a dumb direction until it doesn't work. Life is not a fairy tail, hope for the best but plan for the worst.
