So what's the plan? Which branch are you going into? About 10 years ago I wanted to enlist so I could be a helicopter pilot... then just about everyone I knew talked me out of the military.

well i am depped into the marine's i plan on doing infantry for around two to three years long enough to reach corporal then i really want to do E.O.D but i have to be at least a corporal.

ya i can do anything i choose to i scored high enough and i haven't done any drugs or any physical defects so i had a hard time deciding. i thought about helicopters would be amazing to get to fly an AH-1.

If you plan on making a career out of the military, go officer as soon as possible. As for EOD, I would recommend going into an MOS that deals with explosives and doing that for a few years, then reclass into EOD. the EOD school is HARD and even harder when you know nothing about military explosives.

If you go on google and lookup marine MOS's, you can go through each description and find one, the only one I can think of at the moment, would be a combat engineer/ almost everything you do as far as your job and skills goe will be based upon what unit you go to.
