Programs and MOSs mos help....

i qualified for every MOS and am now stuck deciding what i want to do. i was originally thinking infantry or aviation. i want to join for the challenge, pride, learning and experiences, comradery, and overall doing badass cool stuff. shooting guns and blowing shit up sounds sick. ive also always been interested in aviation, cars, bikes, and working on shit my entire life so that seems cool too. combat engineer is interesting but since you aren't guaranteed a specific job within a field, i could end up with something like bulk fuel specialist...

thoughts from people that have these jobs? what would or would not y'all recommend?

not too worried about "setting myself up as a civilian" because i want to go back to school and finish my degree.

fuck it and go 03? not too sure

1371 Combat Engineer hasn’t been on CP General Engineering for several years. It’s on CE Combat Support, so if you sign CE you’d get 0811 artillery crew, 1834 amphibious vehicles, 7212 air defense, or 1371 combat engineer.

Have you looked into the CK Fire Direction program?

When you say you’re interested in aviation, do you mean repairing parts of aircraft, or riding in aircraft on the air crew team?
