When I graduated high school only about three people joined the Military. However, going through my friend statuses on Facebook, I've noticed more and more people are joining. In the past week I've seen people going into the Navy, Marines, my cousin joined the Army, and just this morning I saw that someone is leaving for Officer Basic Training in one month.
It's crazy. It makes me wonder why people are joining. Is it because there are no other jobs? Are they proud to serve their country? I know everyone has their own reasons for joining, but I'm very curious as to why NOW. Danny joined when he was 26, the friends I'm seeing join are 24. And honestly, I have considered the Officer thing, it seems like a great thing..but I don't think I'm strong enough to make it through basic!
