If you don't want to read all this then check out the Fact at the bottom. Thanks! Lets start this off by informing everyone of the benifits of actually serving their country. 1. Pride 2. Service 3. Teamwork 4. Leadership skills 5. Resume builder 6. Money 7. College Benefits 8. Discounts 9. Travel (voluntary and involuntary) 10. Opportunity 11. Career choices 12. Opportunity for advancement 13. No glass ceiling 14. It is what you make it 15. $20,000 sign on bonus 16. $10,000 commissioning bonuses 17. $15,000 reenlistment bonuses 18. Lifelong friendships 19. Retirement plan (nearly unbeatable) 20. Total Health, Dental, Life Insurance 21. Pay is actually comparable if not better in Military Life once you add in the Housing Allowance (BAH) Subsistance Allowance, Clothing Allowance, Hazard Duty Pay (while deployed), Family Seperation (while deployed), and more. A 1LT (officer) with approximately 4 years in the service can expect to make roughly $60,000 + $10,000 worth of insurances = $70,000. And about $40,000 + $10,000 (insurance) for enlisted with approximately the same time in. 22. Another big benefit that many overlook is the health care. If you have 1 dependent, you have 12. Meaning you get the same coverage for all 12 children as you would if you only have 1. There is no additional charges, they are just simply covered. If anyone has any questions about joining the military or would like further information feel free to email me at bryansrebates@yahoo.com. I'd be more than happy to talk about the opportunities that the Military has to offer more specifically the Army National Guard - where you can have your civilian career and drill one weekend a month 2 weeks a year as a Citizen/Soldier. And to all you Women out there who don't think you've got what it takes to join the military - you are dead wrong. Getting through basic training isn't easy, but its certainly possible. We have over 600,000 Soldiers in the Army National Guard and Reserves and over 500,000 in the Army. All of these people made it, and so can you. Just another quick fact. Our active duty and reserve forces are dwarfed by that of China's who has an Active Duty force of more than 10 million.

It's a quality vs. quantity issue Granted, China has a large army, and is acquiring some good equipment, but: -USA has a large army as well, about...1 mil? i think? -USA has much better weaponry, with each soldier being equipped with automatic weapons, sidearms, body armor, etc-not so in china...heck, we have a tank capable of 80mph! not so in China! -each USA soldier has to kill ten Chinese troops to break even...how about a single cluster bomb on a chinese tank/troop column? so, as long as we didn't invade, we could easily claim air superiority, and then pound them from the air and land
