Should I join the Canadian Armed Forces?

Posted on April 30, 2012 by admin| 2 Comments

I’m 16 years old and I’ve always been interested in joining the Military since I was a young kid, unfortunately my parent’s will not approve of my decision because I am their “one and only precious little boy.”I don’t know what I want to do with my life as far as education and getting a career, if anything I’d like to pursue music. As far as my upbringing and knowledge on weaponry, combat skills, survival, etc, it is very limited. I did 8 years of Boy Scouts so I know some essential basic skills for surviving in the wild, but that’s about it. I know politics decide what happens in the Military but I’ve always been a caring, concerned, open-minded person who has always wanted to help others in need. I’m fairly intelligent and tall, I’m 6’2 and unfortunately pretty skinny but I’m sure the military would change that asap. Base Borden is only a 30 minute drive from my house also which is a plus. I’m willing to cut my hair short (its fairly long) and I’m able to take directions and listen to instructions without questioning, etc. I think I would survive in the military and I would be determined to go through all the hard, harsh training and early wake ups, etc. I’m willing to train my body psychologically, physically, and emotionally for whatever they want, and I’m willing to go over seas if I have too.

So is the Military a good career choice if I’m willing to take the challenge and possibly help the world someway or another? And be honest with me, if I want to help others should I just join the Peace Corps? I’m not afraid to go into battle, I know my life will be on the line, I’m not some stereotypical Call of Duty teenage nerd, I know there are no re-spawns, I know you can’t just customize your gun in the military, etc. I just want to fight terror and help other people in need who don’t have the wonderful privilege of living in an amazing country such as Canada, and if I figure out this is what I want to do I will be signing up as soon as I turn 18 (even though you can join the military at 16 my parent’s would not allow it, would not drive me to the base, support me, etc.)

Help with future career path?

Posted on April 14, 2012 by admin| 2 Comments

Recently I have been thinking more and more about my career path.

I know for a fact that I would like to do something along the lines of military
or paramilitary. I have honestly studied SWAT, FBI, HRT, Army Rangers, Pararescue
Jumpers, Marine Recon, the Navy SEALS. As far as perseverance and willpower go, they
are my strongest traits. I believe that I could make it into any of the previously stated jobs.

This, however, is where it gets confusing, and at this point I would mainly like to hear from
people who either have experience or are close to someone who does in any of the fore mentioned categories.

I know that I would like to learn as much as possible about survival, combat (in all enviroments), being able to protect myself and others from anyone and any number of people. I would like to learn how to use firearms ( I am already entirely submerged in learning hand to hand, and melee weaponry). I want to learn basically what all of the jobs I listed above learn. The problem is most of these jobs do not learn all of that by themselves. I have decided to dedicate my life to learning how to master all ranges of combat, search and rescue, emergency medical procedures, basically anything that will help someone who is in need, no matter how dire the situation. I want to be able to handle anything that comes across my path.

SWAT and HRT do not seem to prepare individuals for the worst, whereas PJs, Navy SEALS, and Army rangers do. But I want the skills that both have. Pararescue jumpers would satisfy my emergency medical and search and rescue desires, but I am not so sure about the combat training they receive. With army rangers it is the opposite. I like the sound of the Navy SEALs, but, similar to my view of the army rangers, I do not want my entire career to be focused on killing others.

If the world, or the U.S. were to get in a domestic or international conflict, and government was not in control, I would want to be able to survive and protect those that I love, and those that need protecting no matter what. This is just an example of what I want to achieve in terms of skill and capability.

Is there a job which I do not know about that will teach me all of these things? Or is there a way I can learn all of these things through one of these jobs?

I would greatly appreciate any input, advice, or comments directed to this matter.
Thank you in advance.
I don’t recall asking anything about what it takes to get in… Read next time.

Why are college and an education necessary to have a good life nowadays?

Posted on February 13, 2012 by admin| 5 Comments

It just seems like everyone ends up in a business-type environment locked in an office and additionally go through 16 years of being locked up in a school to get a good job and good career? There seem to be a lot of chances for mistakes in school, and a genius, incredibly smart, could in reality just not be cut out for the school-like environment and thus not even make it to the real world to help his fellow man with his knowledge—just because he wasn’t perfect in school and his “grade” didn’t say he was smart.

If this was confusing, sorry I’ve been thinking aobut it alot and it’s not quite refined yet enough to a point where i can easily explain it,

Isn’t it true women are wiser than men all around?

Posted on December 21, 2011 by admin| 10 Comments

I’m saying this as a guy, that the last 80 years of civilization shows a startling fact. Almost every skill needed for survival, for career success, for even many athletic activities, woman’s potential is equal or stronger than that of males.

If not for the male hormone known as testosterone, women would challenge men in everything, including football and basketball and wrestling.

As for survival skills in times of emergency electric outages, women win because they approach the situations differently. They coordinate and network better with others so that some of the skills a man uses to survive harsh conditions does not even have to come into play for women. The approach is different but works just as effectively.

As far as managing companies, managing the government, being responsible for ANYTHING, a pet, a child, an errand, women are by nature more responsible and reliable.

Am I right? I have to give credit to the women.

The only reason men have dominated women in history is that women made the choice to play by man’s rules and be submissive partly because the one flaw in a woman is she gets a pleasure out of looking up to the man she’s with. So woman always caved in.
I don;t like Sarah Palin either. But there are exception in both genders of course.

As for the PMSing thing, men also have distractors such as golf, flirting, playing Rock Band video games.
The woman who is commander in chief doesn’t need strong bicepts muscles or agility to order a military operation.
