How important is political connections required in the military?

Heard my friends that political connections are very important to get promotions and having a good career in the army, is it useless to join if I don’t have them?

Connections are an advantage everywhere in life.

You need connections, they don't have necessary have to be political, if you have relatives, friends, etc. in high places in the army, they could help you advance.
