Should you join the navy or army?

Answer 1

The Navy and Army have different aspects, appealing to different people. The job you desire should serve as a major deciding factor in how the U.S Military Service will utilize you. If you join any branch of the military as an MA, you are likely to see plenty of combat, where as if you join HM, (Army), you could very well be located at a hospital in Felujia. Where as in the Navy, you have a dream sheet of where you can potentially choose to be stationed. Nothing is guaranteed, but the Navy offers more choice than any other branch, and they are the only branch in the military to show you your contract before you are sworn in. But all branches show you your contract before you commit to Military Service or sign any service committing forms. You should look at educational benefits as well. Look at which branch is connected with which schools, and offers what programs and scholarships. Every decision you make alters the overall picture of which branch of military fits best with you. Study up. Talk to your recruiters and let them know you're talking to them about their branch.

All branches are extremely competitive with each other. The Army, due to it's large size requires a lower ASFAB score than any other branch. This is only to make sure anyone regardless of education can serve their country. While the Navy is much more selective because of their small size, they require an ASFAB of 50. The Army tends to have more benefits for their troops and veterans than any other branch and give you a large range of Job criteria you can choose from. The Navy does not let you choose some of the jobs and assigns them accordingly. The best thing you can do is talk to both a Navy and Army Recruiter and to people who have joined the Army or the Navy and look into their experiences and what you are looking for.

Answer 2

Deciding whether to join the Navy or the Army depends on your personal interests, goals, and preferences. The Navy focuses on maritime operations and offers opportunities for travel and working on ships. The Army focuses on ground combat and offers various job specialties and deployment opportunities. Research both branches, speak with current service members, and consider your long-term career goals to make an informed decision.
