Hello all,
I am a 74D CBRN specialist who is currently serving in Fort Carson. I am currently deployed in Kuwait. I've joined US Army with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and IT Security. I picked 74D because I had a zero security clearance and that I wasn't a US citizen but now I am. I am currently facing many dilemmas regards to my career options and future in general. My leaderships and officers been suggesting US Army's new Cyber Ops MOS but my parents want me to join OCS. I am sure I'll be hitting retention office real soon once I get back from this deployment and I am just not too sure what'll be best options for me at this point: reclassify into Cyber Ops MOS vs. OCS vs. Civilian life with Master's Degree. What would be the suggestions for me facing these kind of dilemmas? Thank you all.

This is less well known than ROTCs, it can, so far as I'm aware, also be used for grad school, as can the various ROTCs....

Ops research is a frequently overlooked possible major for those in the services, I assure you, their journal Phalanx is well worth your time, look up minimax theory, saddle point theory, linear and nonlinear programming, the simplex method, you'll rapidly realize why I'm suggesting them as topics, promise, OK?
