Which of the Armed Forces would you prefer?

If you were forced through military service to join one of the armed forces would you choose?

Army?
Air Force?
Navy?

I served in the Navy for 6 years and am really apprecitive of all I got out of them.

Navy. No question about it.

Army

I think the RAF has always seemed has always appeared more glamorous than the Army, especially now with toys like the Typhoon to look at!

But the Royal Navy has all the history. Is there anything that looks more powerful than an aircraft carrier?

You forgot the best one: Marine Corps.

I almost went into the Navy's Nuclear Power Program out of high school. Not a bad deal: great training, great education in a (then) growing field and you ended up as an officer with a Bachelors of Science upon completion. But my family convinced me that being in a tin can under the ocean, and taking orders about when to eat, sleep and sh## probably didn't suit my personality, so I passed at the last minute. Still, I wonder what may have been if I had gone that route.

Other than that, I've always had a great fascination with the Air Force. Not that I could have been a pilot, but the fighter jockeys from past wars always intrigued me.

A torpedo?

For me it would be the RAF, but only if I could become a pilot. Being the bog cleaner doesn't really interest me..... :dozey:

Air Force for sure....I grew up reading the stories of the fighter pilots of the RAF and the Battle of Britain, but when I realized a) they don't fly Spitfires no more, and b) at 6'2" 200 lbs I wasn't going to fit in any fighter the Canadian Armed Forces bought, I realized if I joined the Air Force, I would likely be in support somewhere or flying a Herc.....

Never bit the bullet and joined up tho...

Navy is the best of both worlds :p
