I already know I'm going to get **** for this, but I stand by my views and I couldn't not reply. You can go on for ages trying to justify it, I've already heard all the arguments, but bottom line, if you're in the army you're supporting murder. Even if you aren't doing it yourself, the army is responsible for innocent lives. Keep yourself away from all that, and don't fall for all the propeganda you see around you. Sure, you may gain some skills, like flying for example, but you'll learn much more by going to uni where you can make a positive contribution to society instead of one based on hate and destruction. Just think about it a little longer, because it's not just about ****ing up your life; turn on the news and you'll see that.
