I am a legal US Resident...I do not have citizenship and I know that certain positions in the military (specifically the Coast Guard, because that is where I am going) require that one must be a citizen to obtain. I would like to know each and every possible position I am allowed to obtain.

you won't know that until you speak with a Recruiter and take the ASVAB. there are other requirements besides citizenship, such as normal color perception or depth perception, or even a certain line score onthe ASVAB. There must also be a need for that rating within the Coast Guard at this time.

Yes to all of your questions, except for diplomatic staff where the situation is more complicated. At the time of birth, the parents must be subject to US jurisdiction, which some diplomats are not. Keep in mind that women who are in the late stages of pregnancy are not always allowed to fly for medical reasons, and that border officers who believe people may be entering the US to have children can deny people entry. The rule is rather convenient, in that it helps to prevent situations where people are American in every way, having been born here and raised here, but who are not citizens. An enduring problem, however, is that children born abroad who immigrate to the US may not have citizenship if their parents did not naturalize.
