4. NAVY SEALS SCAM.... My nephew was about to join the Air Force, and some Navy recruiters got a hold of him.. pumped him up on becoming a Navy SEAL.... only the hardest job in the World. They really suckered him in with that "Dude, you are so buff, well built.. how often do you go to the gym... WOW... you're a sure thing for the SEALS. Here's the SCAM.. drop out rate from the SEALs is about 95%.. Once you drop out, the Navy can put you ANYWHERE they want and need you most. So, you end up a cook on a cramped cruiser for the next 4 years...
1. STAY AWAY FROM THE NAVY... you know you end up on a ship at sea 9 months of the year, most of the time... Its the NAVY daah..
2. Navy is VERY CRAMPED QUARTERS... vs Air Force, there is no comparison.
3. Navy tech, vs Air Force tech.. The Air Force out classes the Navy by miles... No comparison.
4. Navy vs Air Force, in the AF when you are off duty, you walk off base go anywhere you want until duty time the next day. Try that in the Navy when you're at sea. You can NEVER get away from your job.

MY RECRUITER TOLD ME THE 100% TRUTH. HE SAID I WAS THE BEST LOOKING, AND SMARTEST RECRUIT HE EVER SAW. HE SAID HE ACTUALLY FELT SORRY FOR THE ENEMY IF I JOINED UP. SO I DID.

I wanted to be a pilot. The recruiter told me "that I could be a pilot but like any other job you have to start from the bottom and work your way up" little did I know you have to be an officer.

Don’t forget this kids, no matter what your recruiter tells you. You CAN back out of your Delayed Enlistment Program(DEP) contract. So if you get a job you didn’t want and your recruiter won’t try and change it for you with MEPS, just back out. Your recruiter won’t be happy... but at least you will be.

[forestmcneir]

If it's not in writing, it's NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

They told me after looking at my test scores that I could do any job in the Navy. They gave me a Chinese menu with rates sorting by categories. They told me to choose a category and I was guaranteed a job in that category only. I had no clue. I chose one. When I got tested further in boot camp, they took me aside and told me if I passed this swim test, I could be an AW (secret and not on the list). Ended up living in Hawaii flying around inside a P-3 all over Asia. I say I got lucky.

The recruiter told me the Navy pays for everything. Bullshit they charged me for the haircut when I went to boot camp and I didn't even want it

[bose]

Almost 7 years in and this has been one of the best decisions of my life. No it's not for everyone, but the Navy can improve your life immensely and you're going to get out of it what you put in.

[duckbread]

Also, did you know that you can’t join the U.S. military if you’ve been a former terrorist? Smh. Their standards are ridiculous.

Biggest lies my recruiter told me:


1. I'm going to call you right back.
2. I'll have that information for you in the morning.

[ghostrecon]

"It's just like call of duty"

[Lithonion]

My recruiter was actually very honest. He didn't pump me full of BS and he told me the good and bad that could happen. Explained what rates spend more time at sea, etc, etc. Now, he didn't mention mopping water up off the decks topside while it was raining. :)

[bernieeod]

MA is like the Air Force’s Air Police. You end up doing an outstanding job! Outstanding in the hot sun, outstanding in the rain, outstanding in the freezing snow.

I remember my brother trying to join the AF and was talking to recruiters. On the day he was going to sign papers the recruitment office was closed and right next door is the navy recruiters and they got him to join the navy the same day. Always thought that was funny

[kahkola]

I dont know about anyone else, but i joined to embrace the suck. I personally love a challenge that nearly kills me, but those are the only ones that are worth it in the end. The harder, the better

[Jander]

So basically they're like car salesman, but you pay with years of your life.

[justmeeagainn]

My recruiter told me the Navy would teach me to get my farts to break the time-space continuum. I thought he might be lying, but I enlisted anyway.

[williamosullivan]

If they want you to put your life on the line every day defending for your country they should never lie to you to start off with

[dougcampbell]

A recruiters job is not to sell a job. It's to sell the navy.

[favee]

I literally have no other thing to live for 😂 ima bout to join the navy
