I soon plan on going through ROTC (or OCS), and I still often think which MOS would be better off with. I'm currently in a cannon crewmember, but not because I wanted to be one, since the KY National Guard doesn't have armored units. Field Artillery never really applied to me, being further behind the front lines. Not that it matters, because I intend to go active after I get commissioned, God-willing. I also hope to change my MOS. I hope I could go armor. But then I started thinking more about how often armor is used in 21st century warfare. So I started leaning toward infantry, though I'm not big on ruckmarching. I already a lot of that in basic, and if, somehow, I do go OCS, I would do a lot more, though I might decide to go mechanized infantry. So I would like to know which MOS would be better for me.
19A: Armor Officer

You might find this of interest, seriously, I'd been Army ROTC though I'd gone USAF OTS instead... Ops research is highly germane in both branches, the group here has an excellent journal...you didn't say what major you wanted for your Bach, however, ops research is frequently overlooked, I developed a serious taste for it when I'd been Army ROTC and did a paper as an undergrad on wargaming, I'd gotten Army ROTF mil history award as a junior, the one award I ever gt in the program, trust !ex yue find it of very serious international st, I assure you, please elaborate, grades, GPA, major, other services you've considered, I realize you want Army, however, I !merely QSL to try to encourage you to have the broadest possible viewpoint, I jadmt been enlisted prior, so trust me, in that regard, that:s gonna help you a good deal, promise, God knows it would've helped me....
