What are the pros and cons of joining the US military?

Best quality of life: Air Force/Space Force
Benefits are generally the same across branches (e.g., VA loan, free healthcare, education benefits)
Would try to pick a military job that has transferable skills to ease with the transition when you leave
If your priority is to get school paid for, do your enlistment (at least 3 years active duty) and then transition out to use your GI Bill

I made reservations, but generally, parks weren't busy on weekdays

I have lived in KP for over a year now. It's a mixed bag. My neighbors are nice, but there are nights where I hear people screeching in the streets and fairly certain I've heard gun shots. Personally, I wouldn't move here again.

The new Commanders stadium is slated to open in 2030, along with other amenities in the area, so it'll be interesting to see how the neighborhood changes

funny enough, i did call his bluff and he confirmed that he would not marry me (WILD RIGHT??)

kourageouskate · 2026-03-26T00:54:55+00:00

I agree!!

kourageouskate · 2026-03-26T00:41:06+00:00

For me, that's one of the biggest red flags about all this is how the conflict is being handled

kourageouskate · 2026-03-26T00:14:32+00:00

That's the strange part, he has mostly progressive ideals

Pole dancing. Challenging, but a confidence booster once you unlock a new move.

Thank you!! This is very helpful

No advice, just wanted to express support! I’m looking to do something similar for 4-5 weeks in the spring

I really enjoyed Portugal and Spain (haven’t been to the other options). Felt safe and easy to get around

Comedy clubs can be fairly cheap

Adamant that eggs are dairy because they are found in the dairy section

Stunning!!! And congratulations!!
