What is MOS? Is boot camp the same thing as basic training? If not, where would they send you for boot camp from Colorado?

mos is military occupation specialty it is a number with a single letter the number ids the branch and the letter ids what your job is in that branch ie 11 is infantry b would be infantry man or c would be mortarman there are certian mos's that you have to do osut (one stop unit training) a few would be infantry or cavalry if you do not choose a mos that requires osut you normally go to the closest one to home but it all depends on availability as well

Depending on your MOS. For example, if you are infantry, you'll be sent to Fort Benning, GA. If you asked about the Marine Corps, that would fit your question. USMC Boot Camp and MCRD depends on where you live. In your case, you would go to San Diego, CA.

There are several locations for basic training, and a lot of specialities you will do basic training and AIT (Advanced Individual Training) in one location; Armor (Fort Knox, KY), Artillery (Fort Sill, OK), Engineers, Military Police, and Chemical (Fort Leonard Wood, MO), Infantry (Fort Benning), Medical specialties (Fort Sam Houston, TX), and then for females and just about all of the other specialties (Fort Jackson, SC).

Actually what I think the above user is trying to say is your MOS will deterime the places you are sent for Basic Training and AIT.
