Oh by the way, this has to do with voluntary service. I realize that some countries may have mandatory service, so I should have frased the answers differently.

If you live somewhere where military service is mandatory, but would never volunteer if it wasn't, chose E.

C. I am not but will be (probably) in the military.

My father retires in November 2008, and I hope to be active during next year's campaign for the Republican candidate, so probably around Winter 2008/2009, I'm going into the U.S. Air Force, although I have been looking into other branches including the Army and Marines.

Have you started solicitating your Congressmen for a letter of recommendation?

E, my eyesight is too poor for me to ever be able to join the military, even voluntarily.

Odd. I'm kinda the same way. Aside from wanting to join the military, I've wanted to be a cop since I was 8.

Well my father's been one since 1979, and I grew up around lots of cops at parties and fishing trips, ect. I like police and cops have very cool authority that "normal people" (kudos to Reservoir Dogs) don't have.

Option E for me.

 I was going to join the Marines, I had a messed up ankle from football, my sophmore year, and than got into a terrible car accident in my senior year that got me all sorts of messed up. So it wasn't an option for me.

 Now that I'm able to really do more physical things, I'll probably join the police academy if I'm not elected in November.

E. Though if there was some sort of WW2-esqure conflict with a draft, I'd join as a medic or something.

I don't know if this is out of line but aren't you ineligible?
