I was a Radarman in the Navy, now called Operations Specialist. It was a great job Since we operated in the nerve center of the ship, we always know what was going on. That was the best part.

Combat Arms aside, combat medic. Amazing job and highly respected (except for gun bunnies).

13F L7 best MOS ever while in the military, but doesn't seem to fit the civilian sector to well. For my thumpers... 2 kings 1:10, I'm not as evil as you think. I consider myself a man of god.

1N5X1 - Electronic Intelligence Operations Specialist
Basically, a non-communications threat system analyst. Primarily focused on adversary radar and telemetry systems. Loved the mission. Because of the security clearance, I got to see, hear, and experience things I never would have otherwise.

I was a 67T the Army called it a Tactical Transport Helicopter Repairer. Which is a Black Hawk Mechanic. I went on to be a crewchief and it was probably the most fun I had in my younger years. Today it is the MOS is 15T.

11B. I remember good days, like shooting interesting weapons, learning to hit targets at 600 meters with an m-16, driving the Bradley and gunning on the Stryker. Deployments kept things interesting, but I hated being away from family. Garrison sucked. They were wise to keep the weapons locked up so I would run home to burn off the anger instead (five miles helped me cool off). If I couldn't be deployed I didn't want to be in, so I'm out and not looking back.

11B Infantry - it taught me a lot about being responsible handling a weapon, learning combat, survival skills, decision making and leadership.

6046 - Maintenance Administration
At first I was bitter about it because I had chosen the Legal track, but needs of the Marine Corps had other plans. I grew to enjoy my MOS and eventually love the different facets of it. So much in fact that I continued working it as a private contractor after getting out of the military.
