What job in the army does the most fighting?

Question

I'm not sure how to ask this but I want to know what part of the army does the most fighting.On the army website it says you have to choose a job when you enter the army.What job should I choose if I wanted to be in combat?

Answer 1

Any 11 series MOS (infantry, different types)

Answer 2

Infantry is going to be your starting point no matter what.  From infantry graduation you can go to para-trooper school and ranger training.  That is a long road though, you best chance is to get into a counter-terrorism unit doing snatch and grabs on suspect al-qaeda.  Beyond that, try and prove your a badass to put it bluntly.  Once you reach E-5 you can try out for spec-ops and that's where the action is going to be.  Good luck.

Answer 3

Infantry.

Then, they'll throw you on front lines to get killed. It'd be wise to choose something else other than infantry.

Answer 4

In this day and age, I'd say the JAG does the most fighting... <g>  just not the kind you're thinking of!

Answer 5

Infantry.

I don't encourage you to seek fighting, not one man that has ever entered combat expecting it to be gloriful has reported it was so.  Still, it's a job that needs to be done at times, you should approach it with that attitude.

Answer 6

As stretched out as our Army is now you will not have to worry about getting your share of fighting. If it were peace time I would say join the Marines. Good luck.  

Answer 7

I respect you alot, but after the surge there is not much fighting!
