Bronies have made their way to the military!

[Book Smarts]

The amount of equations you have to do while being a marksman is crazy, it's not like Halo since you have to take into affect wind, weather, and other forces.

[Chishio Kunrin]

I have terrible aim. Absolutely terrible. And I don't like loud noise. I don't really like guns. And I have such terrible eyesight without my glasses that I only have about a foot radius of clear vision. I'd be awful in the military.

Spoiler: show

 

I greatly respect the military, and I badmouth high powerlevel bronies at every opportunity.

So, naturally, I'm at an impass.

its is my heart and soul
my cat to a mouse

i will have the greatest respect when the rain stops. when i feel the blood pumping through my heart. when im strong and ready

Indeed. Wind, bullet drop, distance, height from target, rifle specifications etc etc.

It's a lot more than just firing a gun at HVT's though. It's also a lot about reconnaissance and providing intelligence to your squad.

"This is Ranger 2-3. We need air support at grid Alpha, Gulf, Foxtrot." Your also going to need to work the radio as well. You manage to make a mistake...

I have more evidence for my mom that the Brony community is huge.

...and you/friendlies go boom.

But yeah, it'a very tough job. But it's the one that really attracts me the most.

"You think you're a big nerd, then you see somebody else and you realise: You're not even close"
That's what my dad had to say on the subject.
Call me a coward but personally I don't want to have to deal with hash from expressing my love for MLP, I'm content with just liking the show with me and the internet. I realise people really enjoy the show and I think it's a fantastic way to fight gender/age stereotyping. Sometimes one can just go too far. (Not that this is)

[Lord of Madness]

1.) I'm already going thru the steps to join the military.
2.) I have a very eccentric brony friend in it.

[hyper drive [HD]]

stay in it a couple years and you might see me

[Lord of Madness]

well that sounds nice... more or less 

[ShadowHeart]

i would suck at being a stealth person in the military. My friend and I pair up in laser tag and watch eachothers backs and my friend will try to be stealthy as I walk around going, "This is so cool!" and my friend is like 'get down!!'

I'd never be able to have any practical/front line job in the military.
My reaction times are too slow, I'm far too slow of a learner, I'm severely right dominant, I have a minor learning disability, I'm horribly weak, I procrastinate like crazy, I'm prone to being rebellious when I don't respect someone, far too emotional...
Something tells me that frontline work would make me snap.
I wouldn't be able to stand a desk job either, I need to be able to do stuff, move about, jitter, stuff like that.

It didn't stop some people to achieve what they wanted. Sometimes through willpower alone. Go get 'em!
