Initially my friends and family all had different reactions when I first mentioned that I wanted to go into the military. Yet, they have all been supportive and offered me words of wisdom.
My family is very proud of me and awestruck that I have chosen to enlist in the military. My parents and extended family are all so happy for the opportunities that this decision will present me. My brothers, on the other hand, are still shocked that I have decided to enlist and though they seem to be proud of me, also they are skeptical that I will succeed.
My friends are all excited for me, and have varying reactions depending on their gender and whether or not they have prior service in the military or come from a military family.
Those who know something about how the military works have told me to go for officer or nothing. And they have advised me on which service is best in their opinion.
Guys are all shocked that I am going into the military, and girls mostly seem to focus on the fact that I have to cut my hair... shocker! I was interested in how all of their reactions differed.
I know that they are all happy that I am happy and I know that I have found my calling in the Navy.
