What's the matter? In trouble with the law or can't afford college? I think you should only join the military as a last resort or as an officer candidate after college. Don't get me wrong, no one is more grateful for our military than I am. But, if you are an intelligent capable young person there are so many better paths to take in life than being eager to get your legs blown off. Real war is not like video games. You can't hit restart when you get killed in Iraq. Even if you don't have any other options pick a position that you will learn a skill that will help you in life after the military. Last time I checked there were not too many listings in the classified ads for infantrymen with one arm and shrapnel in their chest.
