      Pros

      Service to Country. It's not an easy job, but nothing worthwhile ever is. Obviously the benefits are great, but the real reason to serve in the Marine Corps is to be around great Americans making sacrifices for their country.

      Cons

      Time away from family is tough, but ask yourself this, "if not you, than who?" Someone has to do it, and I'm proud to have been a Marine.
