I was a 33 in the Army. I maintained/repaired electronic systems in the Military Intelligence community. I chose this job for future employment outside of the Army.
How about you?

The recruiter told me the Coast Guard was looking for people with law enforcement backgrounds, and that having that civilian training would accelerate my possibilities for advancement.......boy was he wrong. The Clinton years didn't do much for the Coast Guard. That said, once I got off the bottom, it's been nothing but steady progress since, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

I am glad that the Coast Guard finally got out from under the Dept. of Transportation and got the legitimacy and financial backing they have justly deserved for such a long long time.

Choice A was Infantry choice B was Cook and I couldn't boil water to make top ramen as a teenager to save my life so Infantry it was. Some years later I understood the importance of having a GT score over 100 and raised it to 110.
