Hey there, I was born as a dual US/Canadian citizen and am planning to enlist in either the US Army or Canadian Army within the next couple of years to become an infantry soldier and hopefully later on become airborne. Cheers.
Welcome. I'm sure you'll get lots of info on here to guide you in the right direction. If you plan on joining the CF, even as an Infantryman; plan on a long wait. There is quite the wait list and with "downsizing" imminent... Unless you do something to make yourself stand out, ie. education, experience, etc. I suggest you go down to a local Reserve Regiment and talk with them, perhaps being a "weekend warrior" for a while will let you know if it's what you want. Plus it'll give you some help when you make the big decision, for either side of the border; prior service looks good.
