Just make sure you're physically fit enough before you enlist; the US Marine Corps is notorious for having the most difficult Physical Fitness Tests of any American branch of service.

On a different note, though, you should be absolutely sure that you want to join the Armed Forces. As a veteran of the RoKA, I can tell you; life goes on at home, with or without you. You come back, and its almost a different world.

Regards.
