I salute you for wanting to enlist, however some of your statements are very telling.

As said, regardless of amount of faith God won't necessarily prevent anything from happening to you. I could get into a very long theological debate on how that belief started with radically ignorant pastors, but I won't save for the quote of "The rain falls on the just and unjust alike."

Remember that joining the military is more than just a job, and is not an easy commitment to make.

I myself was in Officer Training when I injured my back, I was unable to walk for 4 months and at the end of it I had to go under the knife. I was released before ever really being able to serve my country, but I took the lessons they teach their own and it has helped me greatly in standing out in the civilian world.
