Am(palm muted.  Got that same beat as on the real adds)
Spoken:
Joining today's modern defense force is hard enough.  First you have to choose:
Navy, Airfoce, Army, Kiss Army, Salvation Army, Army of Darkness, but even when 
you've chosen, you have to make the grade.

(All chords palm muted for first verse)
