Assuming that you have the neccessary degree, if you take the job of a nurse in the military you'll be... just like a nurse outside the military! Except you'll have soldier training and the constant threat of deployment.
As a military wife, I have to go to the clinics on base, where I am treated by doctors and nurses, all of which are in uniform. They do the usual things that you see done at a doctor's office... except sometimes they bark at you and are a little meaner... :S But lots of times they're okay, too.

To provide nursing care for military members and their families. Just about anything a nurse might do in the civilian sector, they can do in the military too. The military uses certified nurse-midwives for prenatal care and labor and delivery, they use nurse-practioners in various capacities, and then there are the plain old nursing jobs.

As an ex-medic in the army, I'll say that your job as a nurse is to take as many lives as you save.
I say this because I was on the front lines too often, and was shot at more often than I care to have been.
Yes I am bitter, but finally got my discharge. I had originally signed up for the army so that I could learn to save lives, and make people's lives better.. instead I ended up taking lives. In my book that makes me more of a murderer than a nurse.

US Government has taken contract to attack anyone in the world. In the war casualties are common. To treat them they need doctors and NURSES.
