I don't know. I've heard some bad stuff about recruiters; they'll tell you what you want to hear just to get you in, but once you're in, it's nothing like how the recruiter said it would be.

However, Chris, chances are if you put in to be stationed in Iraq, that's where you'll probably end up. And yes, the Army is just quantity, the Marines is quality. Join the Marines if you're serious about joining the force.

(I'd make sure I was in good shape before signing up; boot camp's a real bi+ch, especially if you're out of shape )
