Long time reader, first time poster here. I'm interested in joining the forces, I'd like to know from the veterans on here, from your personal experience, what have been the long term health effects of your career. Have your knees gone, back problems? etc. I'm interested in joining as a combat engineer and would like to do a full career 20 years + in the forces. However, i'm worried about the long term health effects that might plague me from a life of heavy lifting, physical and mental exertion etc. I'd just like to know personally from the soldiers(preferably but not limited to combat arms) what problems/minor annoyances you've faced health wise as a result of life in the forces. Thanks.
