I am a sailor currently full time support on Navy C40s in Virginia. I want to go back home once I am done with my active duty, but would like to continue serving on a reservist level, most likely in the army. What are some of the better Jobs/ MOS available in Minnesota?

The infantry and armor units are pretty squared away!

The reserves have very few if any cmbat MOS' however there are a ton of combat support (Intell and Engineer) and support (Truck drivers and HR).

The Army Reserve or Army Reserve National Guard? There is a difference. Use the Army Reserve Unit Locator (Google) for Minnesota and surrounding states. That will drive what MOSs are there.

Some common ones: 92Y, 74D, 42A, 11B (ARNG), 91B

Call a recruiter for the Reserve and ARNG in the area to find out what options you have.
