NOT EVERYBODY FALLS EASILY INTO A CAREER. Some careers require more soul-searching than others. Careers in the military certainly fall into this category. Military life is highly regimented and makes many demands that most other careers simply do not, like spending long periods of time away from home, moving every few years, and requiring careerists to assume great risks in the service of some very abstract ideals.

If so, you might have what it takes to serve in the United States Army.With more than a million personnel in the active duty Army, Army Reserve and National Guard, the United States Army is by far the largest American armed service. Its soldiers are deployed across the United States and around the world 365 days a year, ready to defend the United States, its allies and interests against all enemies. The Army needs soldiers with every skill imaginable, from infantry soldiers to man the front lines, to intelligence analysts, helicopter pilots, cooks, musicians, graphic artists, linguists, scientists and many others. In fact, for every soldier posted at the front lines there are 11 soldiers in the rear, supporting their colleagues at the front.
