You!
Yes you! Yes you!
They
don’t expect to see something like that on a military theme blog , however that’s
the reality, but trust me, there are
more reasons that encourage you to join than otherwise.
1. Its Compulsory
You can’t escape this as long as you fit into the
criteria for mandatory military service in your country, Congratulations!!!
2. Tax Exemption
Well! It depends on your country
but virtually most countries of the world does not tax it military,
Their blood and service is
enough to pay the tax! Imagine that benefits, no deductions from your salary
3. Serve /Defend your Country
After
a terrorist attack, external aggression or a natural disaster then you begin to
feel an urge in you that you can make a difference, probably you are seeing
things in the military you want to change.
Signing up for the military is
the best option for you. You have got the enemies make them pay for trespassing
on your fathers or motherland as the case maybe.
You will be regarded as heroes
at the end of the day dead or alive you are regarded as a hero for fighting. As
US army General Patton once said that = the Military engineer fixing a wire on
a pole does the same job with a combatant. Even if you join the military as a
cook, medic or combatant, you forever remain a hero. There is a sense of pride
that you derive after a battle and being cheered back home by the citizens of
your county thank you for your service.
Veterans
are respectfully treated in the USA and UK, People raise funds and organize events
to celebrate war vets unfortunately in Nigeria the case is otherwise! I am not discouraging
you if you are a Nigerian reading this.
4. Get Fit
You want to look like Van Dame
or get fit like Tom Hardy, badass like Chuck Norris, stealth like a Ninja,
Entrance to any military
institution in the world requires gruesome basic military training that will
push you beyond your limits, you’ll develop cardiovascular and muscular
strength that you didn’t know you were capable of having, get bullied psychologically
and motivated by the craziest drill instructors you have ever seen on earth.
Martial arts! You will learn for
free!
Bushido, Taekwondo, Krav Maga, Jiujutsu, Ninjutsu are popular martial arts that
most military of the world is inculcating in its training program. Imagine the
benefit of this, you are a soldier even without a gun, after retirement an
idiot breaks into your home you teach him a serious lesson.
If you are in Combatant unit =
Being fit is a criteria to go back to Daddy and Mommy after combat.
5. It’s a Family Job

You may come from a family of
military men, military blood flow through your vein and you want to continue
the baton passed to you by your parent who once served in the military.
Following in the footsteps of a
family member and even surpass their records can instill a great sense of
pride, so signup today, an advantage is that your(ex-service men) family
members will be able to advice on the pros and cons of serving in the military.
Actually my father is an ex-service man in the Nigeria Army and I have a
brother as a Police officer in Nigeria Police force How glorious is it to see a dude whose Great
grandfathers fought in the Westphalia war, grandfather fought in a colonial
war, father fought in ww1 or ww2 and then you?
