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.
