Find A Job While Training

Thanks.

I wanted to go Rangers so I could be in a Ranger Batt. though I did learn from a Ranger at a Future Soldier Event that you can only be in a Batt. for like 1-1.5 years tops.




I will definitely keep that in mind. Thank you.

Tip with Army, never get your hopes up lol. "Needs of the Army" will be your life slogan now.

It's really difficult to get the 'job' you want as an officer. In fact, you essentially just branch, you don't get a job. Infantry and Aviation dominate the merit list of branches so those are automatically difficult. Intel is probably next. Be a PT stud and score high on every test you take and you should be fine. I work closely with the staff at Benning for a reporting project. The best of the best are there to teach you. Listen to your NCOs.
