The U.S. Armed Forces offer both men and women the opportunity
to serve as enlisted
personnel or officers for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine
Corps, and Coast Guard. The Armed Forces also offers many
training programs that prepare young men and women for civilian
jobs.
The process of choosing the branch of the military that is
best for you is similar to the decision of what college is
best for you. Areas to consider when determining which branch
of the service is right for you are length of enlistment,
advanced pay grade, length and type of training, enlistment
bonuses, additional pay and allowances, and the ability to
pursue higher education. The military is flexible and has
several full-time
and part-time options, which have various commitment level
for each branch of the U.S. Armed Forces.
