Simply a Rose to brighten your day, And maybe lessen the cares in your way; And also, too, to help you to know, That in knowing you, many others grow!

I’d choose the Air Force. Better chances of being stationed someplace where you could have your son with you.

Answer #2

Think about your son not seeing you for the whole time you are at Boot Camp. How will he be affected emotionally and mentally by not seeing you for months.

Answer #3

Be a Supply Officer in the Air Force. It’s the most comfy military job. The Air force has better bases, and well, pretty much better anything. Here’s their trick: they get a bunch of money to build a base, then they build all the houses, office buildings, rec areas, they’re out of money. But they still need that air strip. So then they go back to Congress and say, “Hey, we’re the Air Force, and we can’t fly our plans!” so then they get more money. The Navy just buys waterfront property, and the rest is made as cheap as possible.

Answer #4

I would say air force.I plan on joining the air force when I turn 18.

Answer #5

are those the only branches your considering?
