No joke, I've been considering doing Reserves lately. Got that itch to serve and concerned I might regret it later in life. At 33/34 years old, and in great shape, I'm concerned that ship sailed. However, by the sheer dumbfuckery I see from people in the service, I have to wonder if it's even worth my time now. It might be better to continue working for DoD contractors in my case. To those who are younger reading this, do it now while it's still realistic.

lol he probably had a negative k/d ratio in CS:GO.

just my 2 cents;

he is a right handed shooter, but hes reloading the weapon with the wrong hand. Basic military training/swat training ect teach you to always keep your weapon shouldered while reloading on the fly, and use your off hand to reload.

this person is not trained by anyone except call of duty.

so you think his entire military service and history in the ROTC program is fake? or?

also, no one has ever gotten nervous and forgot training? or fumbled a magazine? or froze? that happens all the time in battle. and this guy has the added aspect of being 1 versus 20+ armed officers that were responding, so he's frantically looking in all directions for where the killshot is coming from.

he didnt even shoot anyone, its pretty clear he just wanted to suicide by cop. he was placed on medical leave for reportedly mental issues then discharged 6 months or so later, presumably not mentally fit to serve.

Depends on the branch, tbh.
If you want to serve and not get stuck doing a bunch of overseas nonsense bullshit, try going coast guard reserve and using your time in there to get on an A-School waiting list.
Coast Guard also has a Depot program where they shorten boot camp for those who are a little bit older and have prior govt or military experience, or even just a bachelors or higher.
Then you would become active enlisted or you can apply directly to become an officer.
USCG is becoming more and more important with migrants, drugs and commercial waterways.
Talk to a recruiter from any branch and take your ASVAB.
You can use those scores for any branch and can go active or reserve.
If you take an asvab while talking to an Air Force recruiter, you’re not stuck with the Air Force.
