Should I Join The Marines Or National Guard?

Question by Derek Spohn | Posted in Military

Ok to start off I want to say that I'm not a young kid who thinks that joining the armed forces will be cool or anything like it. I'm graduated from high school and am looking to the future. I know some other men who are retired Marines and they've told me a lot about the corps. My first choice was the Marines because they seem very honorable and if i'm going to join the military I want to join the best of the best. The National Guard caught my eye because they'll pay full tuition for a school of

Answer: any branch of the military will pay your tuition with 36 months of active service under the post 9/11 gi bill. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-9/11_V eterans_Educational_Assistance_Act_of_20 08
second, the base pay for all braches of the military is the same and is based on your pay grade and time of service so a Marine makes the same as flyboys and soldiers.
as for becoming an officer in the Marine Corps, talk to an OSO (officer selection officer) and dont listen to what they are saying on here. ill admit i know very little about getting a commision and im an actual Marine, so what would these people know unless they are a Marine officer?

Do AGR In The Air National Guard Get Benifits For Their Families?

Question by crucy1123 | Posted in Military

I learned from other peoples questions that I can get a full time job with the air national guard (AGR). They said that I would get paid as if I was active duty. My question is does my family get the health insurance benifits (tricare) as if I was on active duty if I have an AGR job. I was active duty Marine for 4 years and would be E3. I would be joining in Kentucky. I currently couldn't pay my bills with an E-3 salary. Does anyone know if AGR jobs pay differently than the military pay chart? Thanks

Answer: the Pay is the same across the board for all branches. It depends on the # of years in and your rank/rate. You will also receive BAH (Housing Allowance) based on the command's zip code w/dependents or you qualify for base housing if there is some there that is available. Your family would have all benefits including Tricare, United Concordia (dental), base priveledges, etc....

Why When Faced With Two Choices, Truth Or A Lie, Liberals Always Believe The Lie?

Question by justice | Posted in Military

Iraq did not attack us. No, but they supported terroism. Who Bombed the Marines in Lebanon, wasn't it an Iran backed group.

National health care. Will result in rationing of services,while the lawyers and insurance companies walk away with fortunes. Talk about your corporate give aways.

Answer: I'm ex-military, and most of my family is military. When we invaded Iraq, we didn't find actual nuclear weapons, but we did find the proof that there had been weapons of mass destruction there. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, the US marines found hundreds of mass graves in Northan Iraq, mostly the Kurdish villages where Saddam had ordered nerve gas bombs dropped on their cities. As much as the liberals like to cry and whine about the Iraq war, all of the Generals say that the surge is working, and I've seen that firsthand since I've been in the military.

Which Military Branch Offers You Better Benefits?

Question by Mr.Red | Posted in Military

Such as health insurance, living on base, better jobs, better salary..etc I would to join one where i can travel alot like the marines. Which is the best in your opnion. I heard the national guard offers you the best bonuses and benefits.

Answer: Apple answered most of this, but as far as job, it depends on what you want to do. The Army & Marines do deploy the most. The NG does not offer much in the way of benefits unless you pay for them yourself or you are activated. As a regular NG member just doing your weekends you will not get housing, and not get medical benefits unless you pay for them. The NG does make it easiest if you are planning on going to college full time though. Pay is all the same, it is based on rank and time in service.

Why Can't The United States Just Copy The Health Care Plans Of England Or Canada?

Question by OceanBlue0910 | Posted in Government

Are the rich too afraid of losing money? Are the Insurance companies too greedy and powerful to allow a National Health Care Plan? Many of us believe that Insurance companies and large corporations own our lawmakers from the city level on up to the Capitol building in Washington and the Whitehouse. I think THAT is the reason we do not have health insurance for everyone. Even our wounded Soilders, Sailors and Marines get lousy health care sometimes according to the TV news and news papers. (Ask a

Answer: Socialized medicine is expensive and delivers very poor service. many Canadians end up coming to the US for treatment because if you need a lung transplant you cannot afford to wait forever. The wait times under national health insurance plans are very long and the service is poor. Add to that the very high tax rates to support it. Would you want to pay an income tax rate of 50% and on top of that a VAT of another 10-20%? You could have 60% to 80% of your income taxed away, and people think national health insurance is "free". It ain't such a good deal.
