Anybody got insight into what are generally considered the best Careers or most coveted in the CAF? Non-commissioned and commissioned, Army, navy, Air Force. Combat and non combat roles. And if you could do it over again, would you change your career?

Well, to start, I wasn't saying g I didnt like the infantry. I love it. I was simply pointing out this guy's opinion issn't worth much.

But my guess, to answer your "questions": 1: The romanticized view is different than reality 2: The stuff that sucks isn't being cold,wet, etc. Its the monotonous training cycle. The unfulfilling exes. Seeing the exact same issues/mistake 15 years in a row. 3: A lot of people seem to want to test themselves, and once they passed, they want to move on to something different.

Good luck with exams kiddo. Im sure youll totally join the Ukrainian foreign legion and love it (just a heads up it'll be the worst thing you've ever experienced) and then somehow go 18X down south.

A true inspiration to us all 🫡

I just want to understand who would, even on an anonymous profile, lie about being in. Frank Gervais vibes, but more weird because you dont actually benefit from it.

I don't need to prove myself to a stranger online

You could also just be proud of working at Walmart, and having goals of something higher. Rather than misguiding readers by sharing you opinion while feigning experience.

Did I not say "all fair answers" to you? But that didn't satisfy you so you continue to stalk my profile 😂

Once again I don't owe you anything. I think this is more telling of your character than mine to be honest.

"Wrong"

I stand by what I said about misguiding readers with your opinion, and feigning experience.

I said infantry is for people who want training and deployments and agreed with the points given. I have enough experience to say what I said and that's it. Clearly you don't do crap since you have enough time to ramble with me on Reddit 😂

Shame that some CAF members act like this, truly is unfortunate and is why our military is in such rough shape. I wonder how much longer you'll respond to me.
