I’m just tryna blow some shyt up and shoot some shyt to be honest and it seems like the airforce isn’t offering that unless you go TACP/JTAC.
If that’s the case, Army and Marines would be the best route. Army gets more contact though, because it’s larger and is expected to do more.
11B/C (infantryman/mortarman. They often cross train and are seen as interchangeable. You don’t really get a choice when you finish basic though. They randomly decide who gets to be a bravo or a Charlie. You spend most of your time cleaning, training, doing 3 million equipment layouts, or just laying around talking shyt unless you’re actively deployed somewhere. It can be a complex job but people who excel in team sports usually excel in the infantry.
12B (combat engineer. They work a lot with explosives, they also build bases, clear routes and buildings for traps, build bridges, use boats... the trade off for doing all that cool stuff is that nobody likes engineers. There’s no reason not to like them, they’re considered the nerdy kids. Plus they end up doing a lot of bullshyt like area beautification and building unnecessary stuff because their officers are insecure and want to be seen as cool to other combat arms branches. Females are in the engineer too.)
13b (Artilleryman. But they still patrol, clear, and hold battle space. Lots of fukkery. Everyone thinks the infantry is dumb but it’s really artillery dudes, they’re usually pretty cool though and a LOT of brehs in the artillery branch. Probably the most black leadership and people you will see in a combat arms branch)
13F (fires observer or fister. They embed with other combat arms units and call for indirect fire, rotor wing support, and can direct fixed wing support after training. They argue a lot with JTACs because jtacs go through so much training to basically be a fister. Fisters get the most sleep because nobody ever really knows who they belong to and most of their time is spent hiding out under the guise of “training” with their parent Fister platoon that nobody can find)
19D (Cavalry scout. Meant to recon, observe, control and call for fire/close air support, and destroy from a distance but in reality they're used as smaller infantry units to patrol and own battle space or spearhead assaults on top of what they’re meant for... Probably has the most posthumous valorous awards in modern conflicts)
19K (tankers. They’re usually out of shape, have all the good snacks, and their unofficial motto is death before dismount... Behind the rear of an Abrams tank is the best place to be in the winter. The worst part of their job is track maintenance and equipment layouts. They also, low key, have all the bytches on base. It’s ridiculous.
Aside from special operations, the above MOS’s are most likely to be in the mix.
