Should I join the Marine Corp. or the US Army?

Depend on what type of job you want airborne ranger is a great route to take your career. But do not think being an officer is a pencil pusher job, they are they leaders and enlisted simply just do what they are told never make key decisions. You can be in the military 20 years as enlisted and will be taking orders from some kid that just made officer straight out of college. Army has more career possibilities.
