I joined and a lot of the people from conservative states said that they had a day in high school where they were mandated to take the asvab. I'm originally from CA and had never heard that, I basically had zero idea of anything about entrance requirements for the military until I walked into the recruiters office for the first time. Pretty crazy.

Missouri is where I grew up. It was more blue back then. The city I lived in was a Conservative democrat city.

At the top we were in the too high schools in the nation. I joined for college money along with several of my peers.

It was good for me. I credit my time in the army for my success in life.

Asvab was “mandatory” junior year

Grew up in MT in a town with a base. Parents were teachers and the kept me out of school the day of the ASVAB.
