Q.	Here are my criteria: What branch is for me? ..and other misc. questions about the military?	Related Search: Military
	I am a freshman in college but I want to get into the military for 2 years and be done. ( I might do 4 if I really like it) These are my reason: To serve my country GI Bill Able to get college credits and take classes as you serve Health, Dental Insurance for life Military Discount Job Preference after Duty TRAVEL!!! I do NOT want to kill anyone, or be responsible for a death, as it is super against my religion. Oh and I'm not trying to die either. So, I plan on getting a good score on the ASVAB, and working in the IT field. I don't want to be in infantry. Here are my questions: 1- Which branch will let me travel and see new cultures the most? 2- If I just serve for only 2 years, will I get the above benefits? 3- How long do you have to be in the military before considered a veteran? 4- Is it true that I may be called up for duty even when I have completed my 2 years? If so, when will I truly be done? 5- Which branch is least discriminatory towards Muslims? 6- What is life like for Muslims like me in the Armed Forces, and will I be able to perform my religious duties (pray 5X/day, etc)? 7- Is it true that you get 1 free cosmetic surgery ( such as lasik, etc.) ? I don't really care about promotions, rank, or getting into a military career. Feel free to correct any assumptions that I have made above.I tried to do as much research as I could before I got bored. I'm leaning towards Airforce or Navy, but everything is still in the air. If you could tell me your experiences with one of them, I would appreciate it. Thanks a lot for any input you can give me. Basically I want to do anything computer related in the IT Field Examples- IT/Network Specialist, Computer Systems Specialist, Software Developer, Computer Systems Operator, etc. Yea.. I think I want to do 4 years, instead of 2, based on the feedback I got. Thanks!
A.	I honestly think you may not like any service based on what you have said, but let’s take the questions on one at a time. 1. The Navy tends to travel the most, but shore leave is short. The Army has the most bases worldwide offering a longer time to experience other cultures. 2. You enlist for 8 years, period. All enlistments are for 8 years, they can be split between active duty, reserves, and IRR (individual ready reserve, means you are still under contract and can be called back in, but you don't do drill like in the reserve). Most branches are only doing a minimum active duty of 3 years for first time enlistments, but different MOSs (army talk for jobs) have certain minimum enlistment times based on training time and other factors. As for the benefits, you will get them while you are active duty, a more restricted form if reservist and none while IRR. 3. Normally, you need to finish your first enlistment contract to be a vet, but that can change if you are discharged for medical or other reasons early. It sounds like what you want to know about is VA benefits. Those are based on your type of discharge first off. Some benefits are available to most people (VA home loan program for one), but the majority of them are limited to those with a disability rating of 20% or higher and military retirees. 4. As I said above, you enlist for 8 years and can be called up at any point during them. 5 & 6. All branches are open to all religions; I can only speak for my experiences in the Army though. There will always be bigots, no matter where you go. Too many people have no understanding of beliefs outside their own and don't want to learn. I know several Muslims that have served, and as long as you can understand that your mission and job comes first, most units are willing to work with you on prayer times. Will you miss prayer times, yes, and often, but I have been told the Koran allows this by other Muslims before. Otherwise, you are free to practice your beliefs as you choose, and the chaplains can help you make any arrangements. 7. No, you don't automaticaly get free cosmetic surgery. Some military hospitals offer some types. I know the hospital where I am at (Fort Bliss, TX) is now offering screenings for Lasik surgery for active duty only. Just a bit more here, so bear with me please. Your chances of being killed in the military sit around .02%, which is far less than the chances of being killed in a car wreck or plane crash. Most soldiers don't have to kill, you will be trained to but that doesn't mean you will. In fact, the majority of soldiers never fire their weapons outside of target practice. Of course you will need to avoid jobs like infantry and Cav to do that, they have a greater chance of facing combat than most. I was able to take a lot of college while I was active, finished 4 degrees actually. It will often depend on you though, how hard you are willing to work, how much free time you are willing to give up (got mine by taking classes at night, on weekends, and online but still had plenty of free time to have fun). The simple fact is you will have to make some sacrifices if you want to reap the benefits the military offers. You need to decide if those sacrifices are worth it to you as an individual, but for me, I wouldn't trade my time in the Army for anything.

Q.	My husband wants to become a nurse through the Army or Air force. Is this advisable, will we stay together?	Related Search: Military
	We want to know if this is something to consider, or if he should discount this option. Our main worry is not being able to be together. We both love to travel, so I am more than willing to go to where ever he is, but I want to make sure this will even be an option. He is looking to get a scholarship through one of the branches, then work for them when he becomes a nurse. Any insight would be helpful, neither or us has really experienced military life before.
A.	He can't join as a nurse until he goes to school to become one. Keep in mind some tours our still isolated so you might have to spend sometime apart or he might not be able to get you command sponsored.

Q.	What is your opinion about this article?	Related Search: Current Events
	Continental matches Delta baggage fee increase CNN) -- Continental Airlines has matched Delta Air Lines' recent checked-luggage fee increase, a Continental spokeswoman says. Delta and Continental passengers paying online for checked bags will be charged $23 for the first bag and $32 for the second. Delta's online fees are rising by $8 for the first checked bag and $7 for the second. Continental's fees are rising by $5 for each bag. The new Delta rates start Tuesday and apply to tickets purchased on or after January 5. Passengers who bought tickets before that date will pay the old rates, Delta spokeswoman Susan Elliott said. Continental matched Delta's updated fees late last week, spokeswoman Mary Clark said. The increase on Continental applies to passengers who purchased tickets on or after January 9 for travel on or after January 16. Those checking in bags at the airport will shell out even more: $25 for the first bag, $35 for the second on both airlines. Some passengers -- such as first-class fliers, some frequent fliers and military personnel on deployment -- are exempt from most checked-luggage fees. Delta and Continental luggage fees now are among the highest in the industry. US Airways also charges $25 for the first checked bag and $35 for the second bag when checked in at the airport. Online, the airline charges $20 and $30 for the first and second bags. United Airlines charges $20 for the first checked bag and $30 for the second bag at the airport, and $15 and $25 online for the first and second bags, respectively. American Airlines charges $20 for the first checked bag and $30 for the second bag, both online and at the airport. Most major air carriers started adding checked-bag fees in 2008. The airlines reported collecting nearly $740 million in baggage fees in the third quarter of 2009, according to U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics. On discount carrier Southwest Airlines, the first and second checked bags are free. JetBlue offers a free first checked bag and charges $30 for the second.
A.	the answer is OBVIOUS. Don't take any clothes!!! I'm dead serious. You think the US is the only country that sells clothes? Its not cost effective to take your own clothes. Just buy some when you get over there.
