So what branch of the military did you join, HG1989?

None so far but likely Army or AF after college for CO rank.  My uncle was a Marine and my sister's dad was on Seal Team 6 with covert operations in Grenada, Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, Panama, and other spec ops that are still classified Level 5, I think.

edit: My great-grandfather was a CB in the European theater of WWII; my grandfather fought in Korea (that is why I take these jests at me seriously); my father was in the Army Reserve and almost given the green light for Iranian invasion which he said he had about 30 seconds to live upon drop.

Not much of a family history in the military then, eh?

You're not really that serious about it if you aren't already in ROTC. Get with the program!

My generation of my family is the first one in a long time, I think, to not have someone serve in the military.  My dad was in the Navy in Vietnam, his dad was in the Navy in WWII, and SOMEONE was in the Spanish-American War because my family still has what looks to me like a cavalry sword.  I don't know about WWI.
