Do you have to take that when you sign up? The recruiters kept calling my house because I scored pretty high on all categories when I took it in Highschool...

I politely told each one of them I didn't plan on joining the military at the time and they all respected my decision except for the Air Force recruiter who proceeded to call me another 3-4 times to see if I wanted to go in and talk to them about it :screwy:

Air Force would have probably turned you down (depending on the recruiter) or told you to lose weight.

Why Marines though?
