Yeah, but their not trained to cope with combat, not mentally or physically. The military specializes in specific trainings for specific situations. If your saying rednecks know their shit well your wrong. Yes, there are some rednecks in the Army, but that doesn't mean we could live without the Army. I personally hate the Army, they are the clean up crew in pretty much all of the Middle Eastern wars like Iraq, Afghanistan and some small operations and they flat out are boring as f**k. The Marines are the real guys, they are the guys who go in the shit hole and wipe the ass then the Army comes to take out any potential threats. I do think the Marines are way more crazy then the Army and could possibly have a lot more rednecks. I'm planning to join the Marines right when I turn 17 with parent's consent which is required for the age of 17 and they are VERY diverse. I'm also in Naval JROTC which will help me automatically rank up to and E-2 or an E-3. I think I'm going to either be in infantry, or a APC driver. It really all depends on what they put me in and what they need me in the most.
