    No, there is no place to register them. They are for military uses only and the public is not allowed to register them -- ever.

    LOL! Tell them you want to register www.al-quaeda.mil. Maybe they'll give you discount on www.taliban.gov as well.

    Maybe you could establish an official government military acadamy could get a .mil a .gov and a .edu and make it the Triple Crown of SEO.

    I applied for seo.mil as a service for all the mil sites, but they declined me...I'm still not sure why though.

    Because SEO isnt important for .mil sites since they are not there to make money so who cares if people find their information.

    I am 90% sure you must be joking, yet I feel compelled to ask:

    Are you serious?

    Thanks for the link, but I didn't go beyond the first couple of pages in that site. I read this message and got scared. :eek:

    Why not try and register a mil.xx or mil.xxx if you want a .mil so bad? Maybe some small country somewhere that has a TLD will have mil.XX available. Just an idea.
