Joining the Military?

[Corndogman]

Nope, even if your vision is perfect, you can't join the Airforce if its corrected. I'm not too sure what the rules are for being a pilot in army/navy etc.

[Warsaw]

You can't be a fighter pilot (specifically) without uncorrected 20/20 vision.

I can't get into any branch because my right eye can only be corrected up to 20/40 (yay for degenerate optical nerve), otherwise I'd have joined the Navy or the Marines.

a friend of mine joined the navy a while ago, they just got her in a commercial

Oh, what a lovely accent

[TVTyrant]

The only thing I would want out of the military would be to be a gunsmith. Thats about it. Everything else seems boring and gay.

I would probably choke the first time I got involved in any kind of combat. So no.

Assuming you went (active) combat arms, it'd probably become second nature for you with all the training

FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...

I can't decide if I want to go light armored or infantry now, it's really quite annoying... Both look very exciting to me, and I just want to do both!!! I'm thinking I'll do a couple years in both while at the Reserves and then pick one to go for Reg Force.

Looking forward to my 14 week BMQ .

I feel sorry for the rest of your unit

Oh, you said usernotes, not thread. My bad.

Honestly, while armour sounds fun, I've come to regard any and all vehicles as moving coffins. At least when you're on foot, you're the one in control of where you go. You don't need to sit there and hope someone else is as good at getting the fuck out of the road of incoming as you are.

[Cortexian]

If I go armored I'll be specializing as a driver or gunner, so if I can't get the fuck out of the way I can fuck shit up anyways.

Our Infantry guys are getting some pretty snazzy gear now though, from what I've heard a lot of the Canadian infantry gear is the envy of the other NATO nations. C7 supremacy.
