Answer 2

A lot of people talking about Military Police in there. I myself, am Security Forces which is basically...Military police.
I have been trained in Law Enforcement, SWAT, K9, Infantry, Investigations and a MILLION other jobs just in my career field.
It is a GREAT way to get into a wide range of jobs. They love MP's a great deal in the civilian world in even jobs that aren't anything to do with police work, for the fact that MP's have been through a lot, understand a lot, and have a lot of discipline. I admit, my career field has more forced discipline than any career I have ever seen. We take plenty of beatings on the littlest things, even when we do something right we still get slapped in the face. But if PAYS off in the civilian world.
My friend was only in for a couple years and back at her hometown, they are offering her $70,000 a year + benefits and that's for starters.
I've seen and heard many other offers such as these. I haven't been in that long to even talk to the units back home but I'm sure they'd grab me like hot cakes.

And here's a good note if you want to continue on with federal service. The Security Proctive Officers in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), have hard-ons for former MP's and will take them like no other, just as any federal branches for the fact that we have hardened backbones.
I can rattle all day about this, because it only gets better. But if you have any other questions, leave me a hit.

In answer to #1, yes you can as long as it does not interfere with your military duties or bring discredit upon the military. However, you do have to get permission from your command/unit to do so. Also, generally, it can't be a full time job. In answer to #2, yes an officer can switch careers, but it is the needs of the military that usually allow this; not just because you feel like doing something else, but I have seen. Usually, command has the officer do something outside his career to fill a shortage somewhere else. For instance, I have a friend, who an intelligence officer, but after a few years, the army decided he would make a good provost marshal and work customs in an overseas area. I assume you asked #1, because although the military generally pays enough, in some areas that you may be stationed and depending on your personal circumstances (family, debts. etc.) military pay may not be enough. Living off post in the DC metro area comes to mind.

Answer 5

alot of people like to say "become an MP so when you get out the police will hire you" but I know afew ex-MP's who tried to become police officers and were let go after just a couple of months, mostly because MP's do things differently than the police, and they just couldn't adjust to it very well.
That being said, if you get involved with computer programing or a helicopter mechanic, they make very good money in the civilian world and its a smooth transition. Dont forget though, all the MOS's the Army offers will help in one way or the other in the "real world"

Answer 6

Sure..... many people do many things and find success later. But many do not translate to a later job.

You have to decide. I have done many things but started out jumping out of planes. Worked my way up, did some school and can make much later. But I was lucky in a way. Point is much depends on you and what you want later.

By father and step father took a different route and I know many who did so as well. They did logistics which is supply and office work. That is what make the military run and they saw much of the world. I have seen it myself...... you might be the badass of the world but those guys make it run.

I suppose it later becomes that they know how to organize.

Answer 7

44C - finance is a good one to bring over to a civilian job . There is a new mos coming out for contracting and that pays good. I'm trying to switch over from finance to learn that skill. Also intelligence is a good job because of the high security clearance options.

Answer 8

Any kind of mechanical MOS. Humvee mechanic, helicopter, aircraft, power station. Some of these are hard to get into and require good scores. I know when I was in, the power supply (56E, I think) was a 2 year school that required you to be an E5 and re-enlist for 4 plus years.

The harder it is to get into, the better pay when you get out generally, and vice versa.

Answer 9

Doctor

Answer 10

Most likely anything to do with computers. You will make a decent living when you get out. Then if you don't like it, you can go to school with the money you've earned for college.

Answer 11

that is the hardest transition alot of military folks have i would suggest a power plant or a airport or look in back of the military times and try to go back to school and the job situation around you i hope is better than ours
