Absolutely not, but I've never regretted it!
I'll also add that it wasn't really the recruiter's fault either. Looking back I didn't really want to hear some of what he was telling me haha.

I am so glad you have never regretted what you've done; LCDR (Join to see). I highly commend you for that; and for what you have become; Sir. KUDOS!
LOL, about the recruiter part. :) I probably didn't want to hear any of what my recruiter was telling me. LOL ;)

I knew what I was getting myself into, was I prepared mentally...no. It took a toll on me not being with my wife and children. That was a huge eye opener. Now, I am gone all the time so it is not as bad. Plus, I wasn't in the best PT shape at 31. I was 210 pounds and ran a 20 min two mile for my first PT test. LOL Yeah, was not prepared for that either.

I was not. I went from being homeless; straight into the Army.
At my first formation, I showed up with my shoelaces and polished brass in my hand.
I thought the Army was like my university class: I showed up late, and still got all A's in that class.
