TRAINING Unlike the other branches of the Armed Forces, the ARMY must hire people for specific jobs, based upon their qualifications and preferences. In no case does the ARMY promise a particular job, and then not keep our end of the deal. There are more than 200 jobs in a variety of career fields available. ALL SELECTED JOBS ARE GUARANTEED WITH A CONTRACT THAT BINDS THE ARMY, BY LAW, TO HONOR THAT COMMITMENT. Select a job from these career fields Infantry Engineering Artillery Air Defense Armor Communications Electronics Civil Affairs Journalism Chemical Mechanics Ordnance Aviation Operations/Maintenance Administration Data Processing Supply Petroleum Transportation Medical Military Police Military Intelligence Bands Cryptographic Operations |
