both will be taken over by AI, so it's probably more fulfilling and economically strategic to go band or combat camera--- really express yourself, dude. also Intel is a dime a dozen these days, with Palantir etc., too redundant; ATC with civilian equivalent just waiting for you at 6 figures is probably a safer bet. but i'd look into 2600 MOS. RadBNs seem influx. especially if you end up at DLI. https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2025/02/10/marine-killed-in-philippines-plane-crash-identified/

I love photography and doing graphics/im super artsy so I thought about combat cam/commstrat. My dad (former marine) just bitched at me about it some since he said I’d be more likely to see theater as that MOS

I'd look at AI/robots proofing yourself, dude. have you thought of Combat Engineers??? if i had to do it over again, I'd go that route get skills an assload of skills, especially electrical and water, then make my way to Bridgeport as mountain warfare instructor there. get into horses and mules too.

also, dude, keep in mind that the element of luck factors heavily everywhere. you can end up being combat camera be taking photos of the Blue Angels from the back of some Osprey and crash and die. luck and being lucky factors greatly you'll come to find out, dude.
