A few days ago I went to the Air force Academy in Colorado Springs. It was fun to be there for only a few days, but I am not sure I want to live there for four years, since there isn=t much to do. I=ve been thinking of joining one the military services but I don=t know which one. I already have some pretty basic knowledge about each service and I think it is enough to say that I have narrowed it down to only two services: The United States Air force (USAF) and the United States Marine Corps (USMC). On this paper I will research through several sources such as: Internet, brochures and recruiters. Finding information about the Air Force will be an easy task. Since I belong to Air Force Junior Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC) unit in my school. As for getting information about the Marines shouldn=t be such a hard task since, I already have tons of information about them.
             I started by getting an interview with Major Michael Sparr, my instructor (Major Sparr, Interview) and asked him a few questions. He said that Athe services pay the same amount of money depending on rank, the education benefits are almost the same.@ And most important he said: AIf you like a challenge, and to be pushed until I can give no more then I should join the Marines. But if you like a challenge that was mostly mental and intellectual then I should the Air Force.@
             After that I went to search the Provo High School Library for written sources and I didn=t find very much that would help m on my decision on which service to join. The all of the books I found weren=t of very much help since all them talked about either the History of each service and/or stories about things the services had done in the past. Maybe these would have some kind f an influence on some other kind of person. But I am not one of those persons so I didn=t find it appropriate to talk about those source
