I don't think your family would disown you, in fact, I bet they would be quite proud of you later when you do join. But it is important to do as well as you can in school now because the Army has you take a multiple choice test. A score of 37% is passing, but if you get a very high score then you can pick just about anything you want to do with your career! There are hundreds of different types of things to choose. You can see a few things on the website goarmy dot com

They are probably worried.

When the time comes and you are old enough to enlist, if you still feel this strongly... then it won't matter about what they think because you'll be defending their right to think that.

I don't condone war or murder for the sake of protection (we call it killing on the frontlines) because I feel unless a President is willing to lead his men on the frontlines then he is a coward and nothing more.

But if you feel you wish to fight for the country you live in then nothing anyone can say will stop you.
