Why is it the Marines earn more respect than any other branch?
Why is the Air Force considered weak?

I plan on joining the Army National Guard, and have had no support to do it. Most of my friends, who are ignorant, boast that the Marines are "where it's at." Every branch goes through similar basic training and has similar requirements. Why is it one branch earns more respect than another branch. Each branch does what it does to help protect our country. It pisses me off when someone will disrespect, for example, the Navy, after they are mindset on the Marines, and only the Marines. Most of the Marine recruiters i've met have been complete douchebags, and have actually talked me out of joining.

What are your thoughts on the branches. Do you bash a branch or respect each of them?

Marines are the toughest. Even though the Marines are my favorite branch, I still respect the others.

i dont agree with people doing this, but they get more respect because they are over fighting in the country and people think they are cooler because of call of duty games more than likely

Right now its the ARNG on the front lines in Afghanistan. I agree with you on the Call of Duty part. I was mindset on the Marines for a while, and bashed on other branches until my eyes actually opened and realized each branch makes sacrifices.

I completely agree with you, I actually am a fan of Air Force, and people think they do nothing. Air Force is the backup for every branch and is a main key in war. There are many other reasons and differences in each branch that make they unique. Marines do get a lot respect because they are so "hardcore", but still that does not mean leave out or dis the other branches.

I have alot of respect for the Air Force. It's something that requires a major amount of intelligence, and endurance. Without the Air Force, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Does it matter what branch your in?

Your still doing a job that people who criticize don't have the balls to do.

That's what i've seen from most of the branches. They all respect each other. I'm mainly talking about the younger generation who bash on each branch but their favorite.

You cant say one branch is weaker, weather it be the Coast Guard, the Air Force, or the Military, they are all risking their lives for our freedom, you cant bash one or the other branch, its wrong.
