Different people pursue different occupations after high school, such as becoming a nurse or even a famous designer, but some students wouldn’t like anything more than to serve our country in the military.
Junior Brendon Kroner already has his future planned out in the military. Kroner wants to enlist in the Marine Corps after high school.
“I want to do infantry recon because I want to be the person to go in and get the job done,” said Kroner. “I’ll go to college afterwards, so that I can pursue a job at the Baltimore County Fire Department.”
Junior Zach Galante would also like to enlist in the Marine Corps after high school as well as get a job in infantry reconnaissance.
“I feel that the Marine Corps is the hardest military branch to get into,” said Galante. “I like the challenge that infantry recon gives; it is probably the hardest thing possible to do.”
Both Kroner and Galante prefer a challenge and would be honored to serve their country.
“If I can do this, I can do anything,” said Galante.
One must be at least 17-years-old to enlist in any of these military branches. For more information, go to the main websites listed below for these heroic organizations.
Spanish teacher Mrs. Heather Walker gives her insight on joining the military after high school or college.
“I think that joining the military and ROTC programs are wonderful opportunities,” said Walker, “They give good education, training, and have good benefits.”
Other students going into the military include seniors Wynter Graybill, Sean Kaliszak, Matt Cheers, and Robby Pugaczewski. Both Graybill and Cheers enlisted in the Navy, Pugaczewski will be spending his time in the National Guard, and Kaliszak will be going into the ROTC program for the Air Force. These students and more will soon be headed in a direction that will better their lives forever.
