I've been trying to get as much research I can, trying to decide witch branch to go into. In high school, I wanted to join the army, to try to get into the army rangers. Couple years later I wanted to go to the navy, and try out for the seals. Can anybody who knows, tell me the difference between the two. Training, missions, what it takes to get into either of them. What kind of stuff i need to know in order to succeed, such as book smart, and etc. I now they both take a great deal of physical determination. But what else. I've gone to recruiters. But everyone seems to tell me what they think I will want to know. I want someone to give it to me straight. I respect all branches in the military and have done my own research over the years, but the rangers or the seals is what I'm looking at doing. Thanks for any replies.
