Whats a common job infantrymen get after the military?

Question

i am going to join the military. i have almost decided on being a military police in the army for six year, or longer, then after im out look for a state highway patrol job. But if there is a job you know about that pays better and easy to get for infantry men or any other MOS for that matter i might change my mind.

Answer 1

My father en-law was a retired infantryman and when he got out, he was a security guard for a few years,

Answer 2

maybe i am reading your quesyion the wrong way, but MPs are not infantry.  and don't be laying your life out right now.  you could join the union and hang drywall and make more than a state trooper.  that doesn't mean you will like it.

Answer 3

Infantry is different from MP.......U will get out then join the union or drive a truck

Answer 4

Well, I went Intell. Serve three years. Got out, started two companies in that field, sold them both for ridiculous amounts of money, retired at forty five and haven't looked back since.

Answer 5

if you want to be a cop why wouldn't you just stay in?

it's a lot easier dealing with military personnel on a base as opposed to the nasty civilians...

Answer 6

Dude if you go MP, the civilian sector usually doesnt like to pick up on military police personnel, because military police are quicker to pull the trigger and have different rules of engagement than civilian cops. You are trained these and never leave your mind. If you go in as infantry and just keep your nose clean, when you get out you can get a job as a cop easy. Or you can join the civilian sector security such as Blackwater and Dynacorp. Explore your options before you jump in.

Answer 7

If you are thinking about jobs you can get when you get out stay away from the infantry.  I was a Marine Infantryman and the only jobs you can get when you get out are law enforcement jobs, and even those jobs you dont have to join the infantry to get.  Get a trade in the military that is going to be usefull when you get out.
