Hey man, either PM me or just explain what the hell the problem is.
as a Canadian citizen I'm not eligible to join the US army or Marines unless I have a work visa, temporary residency, or some other documents that can take a long time to get
I just don't understand how the US can be hurting for troops but still throw red tape at Canadians who want to join. I had always thought you signed up and after your service you became a citizen but apparently it's the other way around
I got home about a month ago from my tour w/ the Canadian army and I'm itching to back over. Unfortunately because of unit rotations, limited tour spots, and a whack of new guys, I probably won't be able to redeploy for a while.
I've still got a couple years left on my contract, so I'm venting more than anything else. Battalion life is nowhere near as sweet as being on tour. Exercises and ranges become a chore after doing the real thing . . .
