Antiochian Monasteries

Does any body know where Antiochian Men who want to become
Monastics go since there are no mens communities here in the US which
belong to that Jurisdiction. Any Ideas?

Most Antiochian Orthodox Men I know will go on pilgrimage to Jordanville if they are traditionalists. Others, to St. Tikhon's or other OCA monasteries which have the virtue of being English speaking, as all of Geronda Ephraim's monasteries liturgize in Greek. In your case, Jordanville, though. Unless you wish to leave the USA, which is another matter entirely.

I wish to leave the US and become a monk in the mediteranian area.

I was thinking Mt. Athos or Mt. Siani at St. Catherines.

I thought you were going into the military...?

I am only going to be in the military for four years.
