In my experience there were people from all walks of life in the military. I'm not a nationalist by any means. I guess I'm proud of some things America has done but then again we are all human and I'm pretty disgusted with some of the things it has done as well. Proud to be an American is a poor choice of words imo(Sorry Mr. Greenwood). I guess I am grateful to be an American. With that being said they would probably have to pry my citizenship from my cold dead hands lol.

As far as sports in the military go I'm not sure because the Physical Training program is different between the services but we mostly just did cardio and muscle failure in the morning(while in formation and if you are doing it wrong somebody will give you the proper motivation to try harder lol). Maybe some kind of sport once or twice a month. I have absolutely no interest in sports whatsoever but it wasn't that bad if you are doing it with some people that you know. Unless it's ping-pong. I turn into some kind of monster when I get a paddle in my hand.

I don't think the recruiter really gives a crap what you posted on some obscure website.

You are the first person I've ever really suggested at looking into a military career. I had such a love/hate relationship with it that it's hard to accurately portray with words. It just sounded to me that in your situation it could be advantageous.

FWIW, don't go down there and start thinking you are hardcore and then join the infantry or something. Air force or Navy is where it's at. It's more laid back and job-like and you'll get treated more like a human being the first couple years when you have lower rank. Those assholes will have you all pumped up and thinking you can be in the SEALS or the Rangers doing James Bond shit every day. I'm telling you it's bullshit. They are lying to you and it will destroy your body before you hit your mid-30's. Pick a job you like and if they don't give it to you flip them the bird on the way out the door.
