I'm not afraid of seeing combat, but I'd really hate to get a desk job or so other job where I'm constantly sitting around. But it's not like if I joined the Marines that they'd let me be a sniper, or in the Navy I wouldn't be able to join the Navy Seals. So really I ask what branch would offer the best benfits for a woman to join into?

The Army is the only branch that will guarantee EVERYONE the job they want that they are qualified for, BEFORE they enlist. The Air Force, Navy and Marines are great for some people, but in the case of someone like yourself, someone that knows what she DOES NOT want to do, then it is the guaranteed job from the Army that is best for you.

If you don't mind rolling the dice, and are willing to be a Hotel Desk Clerk, or a Cook on a Navy boat, do what you want. It is your future, your life. You have to live with your decisons. Though many think the Air Force and Navy are more technical, the fact the majority of enlistees have no say in their job selection means they are not more tecnhical for everyone. And a rhetorical question to many of you. How do you go to college on a ship in the middle of the ocean? Don't say online, there are not very many computers on board and a line to use them.

Which ever branch you pick pick an MOS that has a similar position on the outside. If you like the military then you stay in. If not you leave & you've had those years of OJT. Make sure you make use of the education benefits when eligable.

The most civilian like is the Air Force. You are farther away from the enemy. 2nd is the Navy for the same reason. I can't comment on the Marines, but the Army wasn't bad.

Take the military ASVAB exam & see what you would be best doing. You would then know where your knowledge and skills are, and exactly what you have to offer the military. Then, just like any other position you apply and negotiate your job in the branch you choose.

I come from a military family, I was Air Force. Father, Navy, daughter is now Army. We all love(d) our chosen branch and field. My daughter is now working on her Masters degree, she's a NCO and she's only 24. She also is a single mother.

The military is a wonderful place to travel, learn and make life long friends. I wish you the best, dear. Nancy

Well my dear, All branches need women in the military, there is not perfect branch for a women, it depends on how mind strong you are. You will face combat if you go active, look at Iraq and the women who have been hurt over there. But, honestly desk jobs aren't than bad, and if you get out of the military you need to make sure your job in the military will help you in the civilian world. So before you want to jump and be all that you might want to think about what you want in the future and how to get there before you sign your life away.

Discover now the best sport betting system: http://sport-betting-tips.checkhere.info

Too many people think of sports betting as just something they do in their past time. However, many people can see the potential that exists if you manage to have the right sports betting strategy and correct approach to betting in general. Are you sick of losing? Interested in finding out how to turn your luck around? Do you want to know which sports betting strategies stand to help you make the most from your betting?

Any good strategy should allow you to place bets based on a systematic method. Of course there is always a random element or so called luck involved, but betting is all about stacking the odds in your favor. There should be no guess work involved or bets placed based on gut feelings. Betting is a business and it should be treated like one. Any money you use for betting needs to be separate from money you use for your daily life or anything else. How can you possibly expect to follow a strategy with money that was originally set aside to pay next week's rent with? You can't. This will help you to focus on the task of betting and remove any emotional strings attached to the money.

So what makes a good strategy or what should you look for in a strategy before you decide to implement it? Any good strategy needs to have a positive expectancy. This means that in the long run you will win. The hit rate of the strategy needs to be above 50% for you to be able to profit in the long run. An ideal win rate should be between 60 to 70%, because you will need to cover the fees and other expensive associated with betting. Is it feasible to expect you'll be able to find a system that has a 100% win rate? No, it isn't. The best you can do is find a system that has a positive expectancy and stick with it. In the long run you will make more money than you can possibly lose.

Keep whatever information and news you have about the teams as up to date as possible. Any changes in the teams makeup or factors that affect how the players play will great affect the potential outcome of a match. Make sure that you are constantly up to date on every aspect that affects the potential outcome of a match. Information is the key to winning at sports betting.

The Air Force is definitely the best because the duty in the right jobs are very similar to civilian work. In fact, the Tactical Division of the Air Force is the most relaxed. Try to avoid, SAC or the Training Division because they are much more "chicken sh*t. Also, you should get your pick of a wide variety of jobs. If you don't, they are trying to take advantage of you and give you a job that may not be the best. Try to get it all in writing before you raise your hand and say, "I Do". In fact, get it in writing and find out how solid the agreement is before you know what.
Some heads up for you, "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff!" You have to know the difference. The service wants you to succeed. You could have a job with a great title, but only one or two small pieces of the real job in in civilian life. Get access to an Occupational guide that list regular duties general expected with a job title. Find one that matches the outside world. Finally, you will be looked at and talked to, like you are Miss America, but don't lose your perspective. The young men of the Military are healthy specimens and full of corn beef hash. Watch out for the Officers. They are the sweetest talkers but devilish by nature.

I'm really to tired to dwell on this question. The demographic make up of the Air Force is about 25% female and 75% male. My advice to you is take the ASVAB Test. See how you score and find out where your interests are. If everything matches and you're in good health, talk with the AF recruiter. AF needs come first and they may try to steer you into a career that has more openings. Stick to your guns and wait it out. 4 years of loving a job goes by much faster than 4 years of "why the heck did I do this". If the AF doesn't offer you much that really interests you, then go ARMY! Combat roles for the AF are usually Combat Control, Pararescue (pretty much all male), then Security Forces and now Transportation due to the IED situation, (Open to females). Recently the AF lost a young Airman, (female), to an IED in Iraq. She was only 21 I believe? The AF people here will give you good advice. Good Luck hon!

By reading your question I think you are looking for a job that will provide you with closest thing to a combat arms experience that is open to females. I am in the Army and when I joined I was looking for the same thing. While I didn't get my choice in the matter I would recommend the Military Police (if you are enlisting) or Field Artillery (if you want to be an officer). The MPs are not coded male only and seem to have some very good combat opportunities. The Field Artillery (most MOSs) are coded male only, however, it is open to female officers. In either case if you are looking for excitement I recommed getting options like Airborne school in your contract and trying to get additional schools (Air Assault) once you are in. Those are not directly combat related but they seem like they would appeal to you from your question (plus they can help you get assigned to units that have higher physical expectations).

I would say that that you should try the Marine Corps Aviation Community. I'm enisted as a crewchief, we have female crewchiefs that shoot machine guns out of helicopters so come join us. We could always use the help but usually the people that say theya ren't afraid of combat are the first to curdle into the fetal position crying for moommy when the **** hits the fan so try to be a little more humble and Billy, don't be a hero! Don't be a fool with your life.
