It all depends on your Asvab on how your career in the military will go. If you score High you will qualify for the better jobs the military has to offer, if you score low you will get the crappy jobs. Just remember its your decision. Dont let the recruiter push you. He has numbers to fill each month and they will throw signing bonuses at you to try to get there numbers filled. Most of the bonuses are for crap jobs that when you get out you wont have anything of value for a outside job.

I was lucky. I scored a 69 on the asvab and that got me into the electronic engineering field in the Navy. I worked on Jets. My 1st year in the Navy was nothing but schools.I did 9 yrs in active and got out and got a great paying job as a engineer in with Abbott Labs based off of my military career. I have a GED and no college when I got my job. Now I am going for a engineering degree and the college took 28 credits from my military schools I had and used those credits as transfer credits which got rid of 8 classes.

There are people I know who signed up for infrantry to be a grunt. Thats all they wanted to do. In the navy I had buddies sign up to build bombs. They just want to blow **** up. Now that they are out of the military they are unemployed or working @ Burger King.

Bottom line be smart. The military looks at you as a number that is all. Once you sign that contract you help fill there quota. I would check with the Navy, and airforce as well to see what jobs they offer. You can go back to the army and say the Navy is offering me this can you match there offer or not? Dont feel dedicated to one branch.
