Help! I need Army question help!

Question

What are some of the skills that you obtain in the Army??

Answer 1

There are all kinds of jobs of which you can chose in the Army. They are called your MOS- military ocupational specialty. When you go to speak with a recruiter they can tell you all about them. Normally you will take an ASVAB to see your strengths and weeknesses- after you get your score from the test - they will tell you which jobs you quailfy for. After you sign up- the next step is basic training.(3 mos.) They will work you hard and try to get you to break - so they can see if you can make it through all the stress.You don't get much sleep-you get lots of Physical Training / running, pushups- you go to the range and learn how to shoot.... After that you go to your AIT - advanced individual training- this is where you learn your job that you chose. If I am not mistaken they last from about 6 mos. to 18 mos. depending on your job. After that if you are a reservist you get to go home and sign in to your home town unit. If you are active - you go to your first duty station.

As soon as I got to my 1st duty station- I got sent to Iraq. But that was a few years ago. So - I am not sure if it is the same now. But I believe there is a high chance you will either go to Iraq or Afganistan at least once. I made a lot of good friends in the Army - had some of the best and worst experiences of my life. If you don't like being away from your family for an indefinite amount of time- I wouldn't go......but it is a decision you will have to make. Good Luck and Stay Safe!

Answer 2

Alot. If your thinking about joining, do it. I just got out and it was the best time of my life. I got out because I have 3 kids and it was had during the deployments. But if your single and have no kids, do it. My first duty station was Hawaii. I lived there for 5 years. It was great. I would have never got to do it if I wasn't in the Army.  

Answer 3

How to sleep a lot, and how to get fat, how to live in a nicer place than the marines, and how to use brand new gear, when marines get the leftovers, so basically, you learn how to be pampered.
