Nick Griffin, the British nationalist has written an interested article concerning this. He advises young men, not to join any independent paramilitary organisation but actually to train within the armed forces as a reservist. 

That way you get military training. He then advises that should you be called up in a possible war, they way to avoid this would be a flagrantly right wing person, who they would never want in the army. He suggests for example, getting a "No more wars for the banks" tattooed on your arm. 

Anyway. Here's the article: https://nickgriffin544956.substack.com/p/civil-war-should-nationalists-join

🤣 I love you guys and gals. Who wants to go fight the 3rd world war for the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr bankster gangsters and a bunch of Jews it’s insanity! I have so many friends come back messed up from the gwot it’s disgusting! I was 15 when 9/11 happened. My first friend that came back blown up was in fallujah right at the peak of the fighting. He got lit up in the middle of the street by a .30 cal mounted machine gun. He came back with a halo around what was left of his leg I don’t ever think I saw him smile again and he developed a bad drinking habit. His best friend he went in with went awol. My second friend to come back messed up was a “weekend warrior” he was in the back of a transport vehicle when an rpg came through the back and stuck in his friends chest. It never went off.  The man who got hit squeezed the trigger on his rifle and hit the guy next to him and Chad took a bunch of shrapnel. He ended up getting hit again by an ied soon after and they finally sent him home with two Purple Hearts. By that time our region near Vermont was getting flooded with heroin and when he came back his whole family was on it and he became a heroin addict and died of meningitis. My roommate here in Knoxville was a Sgt on the ospreys and the marine corps sent him on his last tour knowing he had developed a brain tumor on his pituitary. He almost died as a result and they still kept him on tour because he was extremely good at his job. I can’t think of a half a dozen more horror stories from it and for what? Are we safer and more free since 9/11 or the opposite? Who benefited from it my poor friends who fought or the bankers, globalists, and Jews? Its insane! I’m lucky to be surrounded by all kinds of military veterans and none of them trust the government any more. My father was a marine in the early 80s and they fed him poison water on camp lejune and he’s dealing with all kinds of symptoms from it as he gets older. He would not let me join when I turned 18 and he went as far as cussing out two recruiters that knocked on my door. I never understood it back then but everything he said about George bush turned out to be true. Who is willing to go kill and die for the Epstein island crew? Get trained and protect your friends and family here at home!

I asked this question on an SSPX Discord server and there was a mod who responded that it was completely okay to join the military, that the Catholic Church has never called any war unjust, and that you can serve in those wars. He didn't say this outright, however. For example, he really nitpicked the fact that I started my question with "can" rather than "is it morally permissible to". All Catholics have free will, and so we CAN join the military. He used a strict interpretation of what I said (because I wasn't particularly precise) in order to refute my argument and open the doors very wide to involvement in war and military. He also never mentioned the fact that you will be surrounded by people who swear and make dirty jokes. I could sense that he was using sophistry to trap us in our words without anyone noticing, because he always liked to use charitable language and say the word "kindly" and "please" a lot. I believe he also defended the Vatican declaration criticizing the use of "co-Redemptrix" by specifying that they weren't literally against it, all the while being subtle and charitable.

I asked a question recently about whether it's true that you can get a dispensation for marrying your uncle or aunt according to the catechism "My Catholic Faith", and the answer so far has been yes, but we'll see to that later. Another man says their great great grandparents got a dispensation from Rome to marry their first cousin.

Although involvement in the military is not always a hard "no", it's obvious that in general it does not seem moral to willfully put yourself into an American foreign war or to go into the US Army.

Well, this is the SSPX Discord server for you. But I will admit that I should've been more precise with my words. I'm really only on this server nowadays to test and see what they actually think about all these weird things.
I would like to begin by telling you the truth about the so-called "SSPX" discord server. The Discord moderators here are hardly Catholics at all, they are pure larpers and they partake in calumny and discrimination of actual Catholics.

I was previously a member of this server, and I was basically harrassed and calumniated by one of the moderators here, who in the end abused his power to ban me despite the fact I was always non-agressive and actively avoided conflict to discuss other matters of the faith with other Catholics. He actively seeked conflict with me in a pharisee-like manner over the slightest pretexts, despite the fact I did not want to interact with this person with a pathetic superiority complex over his discord moderator status. Then I got banned without any reason, basically for defending myself against false accusations. The reason ? I said I refused to accept Francis as a Pope, and that I was a sedevacantist. Aside from that I talked about practicing the rosary or other stuff like that, naively thinking I could discuss with them such things. 

They act like they are demonically possessed in front of sedevacantists.

Several months later, I came back to the same discord. Apparently I was no longer banned, which means someone probably saw what he did and cancelled it. They now directly refused sedevacantists, under the pretext that sedevacantists had "bad behaviour in the past" in said server. Considering how they treated me, I think they treated other sedevacantists the same way and unlike me they got angry and defended themselves.

They refuse actual believers who go to SSPX masses in real life. They are so prideful it's disgusting to look at. 

Do not trust them and do not associate with them. Go to an actual SSPX parish. If you need counselling it's far better to ask an actual priest than those clowns.

Previously, I went on a side tangent because I remembered how they treated me and the injustice angered me.

There are several reasons it could be a good idea for you to join the army, it's 1)Making connections. 2)Learning how to fight, so that you can defend your family and yourself. 3)Get a job, if really you cannot find another occupation.

In those troubled times, being from the military could save you and your family's life, especially if there is a cινιℓ ωαr. If a cινιℓ ωαr happens, people who cannot fight will have a really hard time.

Amassing actual power to change the world. The reason christian traditionalists lose all the time and Satan wins is because too many Catholics are far too scrupulous. There are 1 million abortions every single year in the USA. In the world, there are more than 77 million abortions every single year. In the last 20 years, that means 1.5 billion children were murdered.

1 billion children got murdered, meanwhile Catholics are worried about swearing in the army? Don't you think this is completely ridiculous ?
You should be concerned about becoming as powerful as you can be as a man , so that in the future you can protect your family from the countless disgusting creeps that plague this world, and maybe save actual people.

You need to think carefully about whether joining the army is the best way you can serve God and do good in the world.
