i would wana join tha army wen i goes to usa will it be a problem for me to join.any ideas abt this housemates?

While all adult male between the ages of 18-26 are required to register with the Selective Services Program, it does not necessarily mean that those who have registered are military members or its the route to becoming a military personnel. Anyone interested in joining the US military will need to enlist with the appropriate arm of the military they're interested in joining.

For instance, if you're interested in joining the army, your first step in the enlistment process will be to meet with a recruiter. Army recruiting offices are located in all major U.S. cities. You can find them listed in the telephone book in the white pages, under "U.S. Government." You can also locate your nearest recruiter using the following link:

You can also get additional information from the army website:

While there's no ongoing draft at the moment, the US military is recruiting and enlisting interested individuals on an ongoing basis.

God really showed me great favor yesterday, All the glory I give to Him alone, if not, I wouldn't have gone this far and my Pastor who prophesied to me. Thank you to all the members of the forum, the older members who set the pace for starters like me. A very big thank you to Obeezy who introduced me in this forum and motivated me,Makiki thank you sooo God bless you my partner,Donmisty Papasn,Jarmsbi,Ash 2013,Karendi Burundi winner Emmah, Fomogho,catchme Henrica80 Nesh I salute you all and every other members of the house. Just have Faith and God will give you the desires of your heart. Obeeezy may God remember you, u have a clean heart and I know he will open doors for you.:)

Wow, congs Nickelly, your case is similar to mine, (a hubby and 2 boys). Such an amazing story. Eh guys those white consulars! i hope i don't freak out when am sent to one.
 
I just realised that we are really enjoying our Swahili language but people like Gabam, Sharm,Timaz, Ash10, Catchme, Burundiwinner, Frank80, jimmaboy come from nations that dont speak Swahili ie Turkey, Ethiopia, Burundi, Uganda, Zimbambwe, Somalia and Ghana so try not to write a whole sentence in Swahili atleast let them understand us. Starting with me lol :p

You're far too kind. When i see those lines i just jump to the next comment coz its really unlikely that i will get the message. Cheers.
 
Karendi, the photo should be taken within 6 months, with BOTH EARS showing and on a white background. Those are the things that matter. If you dont like the pix you have, go take another one.You dont have to use medical pix.

Thanks darling, BTW; I have a feeling we might be going for the interview the same day. Wacha I inbox u the details.
