Thx!
army may not be wat u imagine it to be like. Cadet/recruit/trainee life is jus a whole brunch of wayang fest which is unlikely to be wat u do day to day once u r pass that stage.

my suggestion is to try tok to some regulars or observe what they do before u commit urself.... as someone earlier mentioned, once u r inside, it is very hard to get out. Also, unless ur education is really low, do not sign on as specialist if u cant get officer.
