I came from a rich family (certainly didn't have 700 MM, but still), and joined the military. Lots of people had trouble understanding why I would do that, and decided it must have been because I wanted to go into politics. That really pissed me off. In fact, one reason I've never run for office, despite opportunities to do so, is that I don't want people to think I went into the military in order to run for office. I did it to serve our country, to continue a family tradition, for adventure, to be a man, for honor. Not so that I could edge out somebody in the rat race.

Congrats, you’re in the 1%.

As I pointed out above, motivation doesn’t really matter. What matters is that you put your hand up and did it.

If everyone spent 2 years before turning 30 performing some type of service, even something like TFA or peace corps, I think the country would be much better off. It would be a good counterbalance to the 4 years of infantilization that kids get now at college.

Appears he just enlisted.

You have to apply for Officer Candidate School, but then you’re looking at a 4-6 year minimum commitment. Officers also (theoretically) have significantly more responsibility.

If this guy just wants to do his 2-4 years and get out, then enlistment is the way to go.

This thread reminds me of doing ROTC at an Ivy and all of the befuddled people I ran into asking me why. So many shitlibs just don't get the concept of military service and what it means to be an American. I actually had to drop a class with some draft dodging boomer professor who undoubtedly was going to flunk me just for wearing the uniform in his class.

I did ROTC at HUG and there were 20 commissioned out of my class. It's not as unusual as people think.

If you do ROTC do you still have to do OCS?

The 60s and hippie Boomers really did a number on this country. The damage they caused is incalculable.

Military service is more common among the upper class than the upper middle class.

It’s basically mandatory for British royals, so it doesn’t seem really out of place for someone coming from wealth. One of the good things about the concept of military service is that it can be an environment where socio-economic diversity and interaction happens.

I’m not unsatisfied with my life, I’m rich and happy, but I think I’d have had just as good an outcome had I done Purdue aviation / ROTC; got accepted just after the first Gulf war and parents were like no way on that one. As for officer vs enlisted, sometimes they have some specific specialities that are more oriented to enlisted roles; e.g. technical roles in security and intel that private sector will pay $$$ for later. One of the other options back in my day was “high school to flight school” which was a direct path to flying helicopters / Warrant Officer.
