You have to remember that when their lives are on the line, they won't be so ignorant anymore. And if anything you'll have an infantryman as your commanding officer on the field , so you won't have anything to worry about.

thank you very much for your reply sir, i am worried that if i join the army i will have to fight along side the type of people that post negative stuff ^^ even on this post... if i had to fight along side someone who is very very ignorant and putting our lives in danger i would be extremely angry:L so a question ... what do you do if there is someone like that? who do you go to, to report them?

usually in a firefight everybody works as a team no matter who they are because i expect that nobody wants to get shot in my experience everyone has always been by me in a firefight no one has been a complete idiot but if someone is stupid and gets himself shot or blown up i will blame it on himself for not listening and being a complete idiot but that will almost never happen as in the army especially in a firefight everybody is a friend and will always work as a team

Goodluck in the future no matter what decision you make

that is also another positive of why i want to join! when my life is on the line and i am being fired at, if i live then i will appreciate life a lot more! and not take things for granted.

i also love the fact that you do make friends for life and most people who join the army are very very nice people!!
