yeah if you join up you can take classes while your in, and after its all said and done you can get a bachlers for 0 cash out of pockit, but dont expect to get it done all that quick, also GI bill is good for 10years after you get out. reserves also have benifits but not sure what they are.

I'm not in the military, but I spend my days down in the engine room on a long hard tube full of seamen. I'm pretty sure that Submariners are the most miserable people in the navy. I think eagle can probably vouche for that

Last I heard, the Coast Guard was part of the Dept. of Transportation, as opposed to DoD. Unless that changed (it mightve, I dont pay attention to that stuff any more), why would it count as military? Not that theres anything wrong with that.

that used to be the case, however now we are in the department of homland secuety. but as long as the coast guard has been a around it has been one of the 5 military branches
Army
Navy
Marines
Airforce
Coast guard
im not sure what the defining factor is to be part of the military but i would say that if members fall under the UCMJ (uniform code of military justice) then they qualify.
just so evey one knows the CG does alot more the ride around on small boats and helos, we also have large Cutters that are deployed around the world, as well as Iraq.oh and we go to boot camp to
