The Army is the only branch of service that is able to guarantee a specific job prior to signing any contract. It is solely based upon qualifications via the ASVAB and class space available for that particular Military Occupational Skill (MOS) or job. This is regardless of the would be soldier's score on the ASVAB. The Air force only guarantees a small amount of training and gives it that guarantee to those that have scored in the highest percentile of the ASVAB. The Department of Defense (DoD) publishes the "Profile" magazine which compares all the branches of service next to each other. They are all basically the same with the exception that because the Army is the largest branch, it has deeper pockets. This means more money for cash enlistment bonuses, guaranteed training, promotions, and educational benefits. The only thing that the Air force has going for them in terms of recruitmen -

Beware the term "specific training in the field of your choice," you will receive the training but not necessarily the job field. Read what you sign!

Make sure you understand exactly what you're going to be doing before signing a contract. There is a lot of gray area that can confuse new recruits. Remember that the big sign on bonuses are given to individuals willing to do a job that is either very undesirable (hard work), or requires extensive outside knowledge (Arabic translator). Take some time to think about the decision after talking to a recruiter. Talk with your family and friends about it, even if it's been your dream since you were a kid.

The Army is the only branch of the military to guarantee a specific job when you enlist. The Army is able to do this because they are the largest branch which enables them to guarantee you a specific job out of 212, a cash enlistment bonus up to $40,000.00 and $71,000.00 for college. The Marines, Navy, and AF may only be able to offer you a career field, at the most.

Your ultimate leader will be the "Commander in Chief" aka the President. If you do not agree with this person's personal views, you may not agree with his decision to send you into combat. Has this person served during wartime? Would he be able to fully appreciate the sacrifice he may ask you to make?

The Army is the only branch of service to guarantee specific job training to every single person who joins. Every other branch of service has non-specific options with no guarantee of future training. the Navy calls it "undesignated," while the Air Force and Marines call it something like the "Aptitude Area Enlistment option." You are promised a job in that area, but you won't find out what job until after you've signed up and started your active duty. At least that's somewhat better than the undesignated option with the Navy.

1. The Army has so many programs to help your every need. 2. Ask a military friend to get you all the pamphlets to help you learn about the Army. 3. There are college programs to help complete college.

The Army is not the only armed service to have guaranteed jobs. The Air Force has them also.

The Army offers guaranteed training of choice, with conditions. You must qualify for the chosen field, and a vacancy must exists in the chosen field. If these two conditions are met, you are guaranteed training of choice.

1. Never give up or quit. Always be prepared to give your all. 2. Don't follow in someone's steps, unless they have had a positive outlook in the military. 3. Be prepared to wake up at any time of the day or night. 4. Still go to college, either part-time or full-time. You earn college credits and you advance further within the military. Plus, you will be promoted above your peers. 5. Don't do anything to jeopardize your career. You could end up in jail or lose everything within your military career. 6. Be flexible. 7. Be able to travel all over the world. But learn all the country cultures. It's educational. 8. Work as a team member, and employ manners at all times. 9. Be considerate of others. 10. Do not bring racism to the military. It will destroy everything of what the military stands for.
