I would choose the navy, the journey to be part of this prestigious force is more difficult but the benefits, in the long run, are much better.

In the navy you get into combat much less, your expected life is much longer and the payments to navy personnel are higher so I'll stay with the navy.

I would choose the army, if what you want is to learn in real-time the army gives you that capacity, also if you have a good career when you retire you can easily enter the private sector because you already have the experience.

I am from the air force and I respect the other forces a lot, I have to say that between those two I would choose the navy, the capacity for growth within the armed forces is greater most of the high ranks are from the navy and that says a lot of what happens so I recommend that one.

If you are looking to be in combat, the best is the army, if not choose the navy.

In this article, you can read 10 objective reasons why the navy is better than the army. https://www.military.com/spousebuzz/blog/2013/10/top-10-reasons-the-navy-is-the-best-service.html

Me, personally, i'd go with the navy. It seems like such a cool place to work in, and I have always loved ships and the sea, so it would allow me to work and also pursue some of my interests!

Definitely the army. One thing I liked about it was being able to travel and see different places and cultures, even if that meant being exposed to some awful realities at times. Ultimately, I think I liked it because it taught me a lot as a person!

I would choose the army because it is more focused on offensive strategies, which is what I would prefer.

The navy has a variety of ships and submarines that can be used to conduct naval operations anywhere in the world. The navy also has a large number of personnel who are trained to operate these ships and submarines.

Army because I think it would be more fulfilling to do something that is important and helps people, rather than just sailing around on a boat all day.

The Air Force! Seriously, the Navy so you can work in aviation. There are a ton of career opportunities in aviation on the civilian side once you get out

NAVY!
