A Job in the Military

Transcript

My belief is that they're the best in the world and if you want a good job and a job that would show results in the end, join the military and it doesn't matter again whatever your trade life or your thoughts in life as what you want to do, if you want to fly planes, if you want to pilot ships, if you want to fix trucks, whatever, there's a job in the military for you, it's there. Only one place in the world I think where you don't have to have a background or a rich background or be a money person to advance. You join the military and you advance on what you show them, not on where you came from or what you did before, it's how well you perform doing that job and you can advance. No doubt at all about telling people to join. It's a great job, you meet great people, you do some, say free travelling, some not so good, others great. Yeah, it's the best job in the world.
