Honestly though, trident submarine is the best option

you are safe underwater for most of the war, you are a high priority asset so the commanders will keep you safe

you supposedly get good food

its super cool to serve as a crew member in an underwater vessel (you can imagine you are on the Nautilus or something); you probably get cool clothes and get to look at cool radar screens. Being a higher ranking officer would be cool too

Worse comes to worse you get the order to launch the nukes.

No no no. Nothing at McDonald's surpasses actual sea food restaurants. You're opinions can be dismissed.

Gonna have to agree with Therm here.
And.. Canned seafood? Yuck.
McDonald's and food shouldn't really be used in the same sentence either.
Sure glad I can drive down the road and purchase fresh seafood that was just caught and brought to market this morning.

How about the marines?


Nah. TBH, my preference would be Coast Guard. I really don't want to get up close and personal with the enemy any more than I have to.

I wish I was...
In August 2016 the U.S. Navy announced that it is eliminating the NWU Type I in favor of the Type III which will completely replace it by 1 October 2019 for wear as the standard working uniform ashore for all Navy personnel.[30][31] Type III will begin being issued to new navy recruits in October 2017. The Type II will remain restricted to wear by Naval Special Warfare sailors when in desert environments. The Navy's goal of developing a single working uniform for wear aboard ship and ashore and by all ranks and rates which the NWU Type I was supposed to fulfill was never realized by the Type I. Soon after its introduction it was found to be unsuitable for shipboard wear because of its lack of flame resistance and so was banned from wear aboard ship (except for when in port) thus making it essentially a uniform to be worn while ashore only. As a uniform for wear ashore only, a pattern designed to conceal stains aboard ships is not nearly as effective at concealment as a pattern designed to conceal people on land, thus the IIIs are used ashore anyway. That being the case, the NWU Type I has become a uniform without a purpose. The Navy continues to work to develop a new shipboard working uniform.
