I don't have Tik-Tok, but I was in the military. In fact I just resigned from the US Army as a major. I began my journey at West Point at the age of 17. No one can possibly understand the full scope, gravity, and implications of an experience like military service before they arrive it. Even for the children of parents who are lifelong service members. It is its own world and a separate culture. In many ways a counterculture to the current progressive narrative. Certainly not something to be taken lightly. Also not something to fear. If his mind is correctly framed it could be the best thing that ever happens to him. Life is full of hardship. The military is no exception. The question isn't whether it will hurt. Or be painful. Or hard. It's will it be worth it? In most instances. With the military. It's a resounding yes.
