What military branch is usually on the frontline in war?

Some of my friends are in the U.S. army Infantry and they were not on the frontline. So i am wondering which branch is on the frontline?|||Reagan and Jake are both wrong on here. I just love how idiots get the idea that the Marines are the "first to fight" and that they are the only ones that do an invasion.





A couple of the answer were partly correct when they are saying there is no real frontline. Right now, we are not fighting a conventional war. We are in the occupational stage of a war. There is no line. We have control of the whole place.





Now, when it comes to the conventional part of war and the invasion, that is where you have the "line". Both the Army and the Marines are used as an invasion force. The Marines didn't invade Iraq by themselves, nor did invade any other country during an act of war alone.





As for your friends that are in the infantry with the Army, they might not have been in during the invasion of Iraq. Or if they were serving during that time, they might have been assigned to a unit that didn't take part in the invasion.





So the answer to your question of who is on the "frontline", it would be the Army AND the Marines. Anyone that says that it is only Marines or only Army is WRONG.





EDIT: You got a point, Roken, on my "idiot" remark. Instead of calling those people idiots, I will just call their remarks idiotic. Whether they are idiots or not, the remarks they made and how the presented them was idiotic and anyone actually educated can tell that. As for your answer, that is a lot of good information about the Marines history and thier past numbers. But all that information basically had nothing to do with the actual answer to the question itself. You put all that out there, and all you could say in reference to the question was "As far as who goes first, DEPENDS!". When does it "depend" on who is on the front lines? Only time that can depend on is when asked about who is on the frontlines of specific battles. The Marines invaded specific areas at the same time that the Army was invading specific areas simultaneously during each of our wars. But I will say this. You did provide a lot of good information about the size of the Marine Corps in the past. That was something that I was wanting to know....lol|||Marines. They are the first to fight.|||Frontlines in the traditional sense don't really exist anymore. Especially in the Middle East. It's mostly patrolling, security, and raids.|||THERE ARE NO SUCH THING AS "FRONTLINES"


EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE READY TOO FIGHT


MARINES GO IN FIRST USUALLY SO FROM EXPERENCE ID SAY MARINES


OORAH





BUT IN THE MIDDLE EAST.. EVERYONE IS THE IN THE FRONT LINES, THE FRONT LINES NOW TURNS INTO A URBAN WARFARE COMBAT ZONE|||For the most part I agree with deftoneh except for the "idiot remark".





The first thing to remember is that the Marines are not an army, but a corps. By January 1944 the US Marine Corps had grown to a total of 405,169 personnel, comprising 28,193 officers, 10,723 officer candidates, and 366,353 enlisted men. The Fleet Marine Force now had two amphibious corps, four divisions, a separate infantry regiment, 19 defense battalions, and numerous support and service units.





Today's Marine Corps is 4 Active and 2 Inactive %26lt;reserve%26gt; divisions, plus Aircraft Wings and Logistics Groups.





Their first two mottos signified mobility, "Per Mare, Per Terram" "by sea, by land" and "To the Shores of Tripoli". "Semper fidelis" "Corps and Country" is the current motto! The mobility signifies the Navy and are so attached! Also, the Marines rely on speed of attack and hard hitting tactics. The Army has whenever possible, depended upon overwhelming firepower!





As far as who goes first, DEPENDS!

Do horizontal branch stars have a higher or lower temperature than main sequence stars and why?

Also, do horizontal branch stars have a higher or lower luminosity than main sequence stars and why?|||Horizontal branch stars have lower surface temperatures and therefore do not have the same spectral type they had as Main Sequence or hydrogen fusing stars. After exhausting all the hydrogen in the core and expanding into red giants, the core became hot and dense enough for helium fusion to commence. These stars are now fusing helium in their cores and hydrogen in a shell around the core, and because of this they are larger and much more luminous than a Main Sequence star of the same mass. Nuclear fusion generates energy are a much greater rate than before and that makes the star larger, and thus gives it much more surface area from which to radiate energy to space and puffs up the star's outer layers, driving down the surface temperature. A Sun like star that is on the horizontal branch phase of it's life will be a late G-type or early K type yellow star that would outshine the Sun 100 times over until the helium in the core is converted into carbon and oxygen and the star expands again into a red giant.|||A horizontal branch star will have the same temperature as a Main Sequence star of the same spectral class (i.e. a K star will have a surface temperature of around 6500F whether Main Sequence or horizontal branch). However, there will be a major difference in luminosity, given the difference in sizes, since horizontal branch are much larger (that's why it is often called the giant branch).

What branch of the military do Marines dislike the most?

It seems like every branch dislikes the Marines, or they talk bad about them at least. So, who do the Marines dislike/ trash talk the most and why?|||First off I have to clarify my belief as to why we're disliked...We're generally ornery put in tough situations i.e. short manned in a forward area, seeing as we're no where near as large in force as the army, we tend to train one Marine to cover duties that would utilize 2-3 soldiers or more. We Marines Just know we're the best, can't be bragging if it's a fact... Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" Not to mention the jealousy over how good we look in our Blues... So, we got a chip on our shoulder, and we're proud to boast it. Others are caught up in a long history of competition, and as far back as doing the dirty work of being a marksman firing down on mutinous squids on old school frigates, to being hot spot warriors in Vietnam, and assuming the army's duties as base holders in Iraq due to shortage of troops, we flaunt our skill and lack of resources, and general ability to overcome obstacles others fail at. Personally I've known solid and honorable military members from all branches, and while we bust their chops there's an underlying respect for anyone in uniform, serving our proud nation. Personally I chastise the Air Force more, referring to them as the "Chair Force". They fly drones remotely from the U.S., bomb from miles above, and used to get hazard duty pay for bunking at 29 Palms Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center. Generally in the rear with the gear, call them REM, or POGs...but I gotta say chow on an Air Base has got to be the best across the board...my two cents.|||Im a Marine, and to put it simple, we feel that we train harder than everybody else, and the fact is that we do. We have the higest percent of our branch in direct combat roles and we should be respected for that aspect,





on the other hand the people the Marines respect the most are the Navy Corpsmen because they are our medics and fight just as hard as we do.





I hope this helped, Mike|||When I was in the Marines, we hated the Air Force but only because for the most part, they have it easy, have better quarters and better food.|||Based on their own re-enlistment numbers....there own.





DOD Average reenlistment rate: 71%





Army: 64%


Navy: 68%


Air Force: 81%


USMC: 34%





"But don't take my work for it."....*sigh*|||Civilians. The branches will work amongst each other. Civilians are the true hindrance to war and the objective of the military.|||what the heck? why would the marines hate the navy? you know what marine stands for, right? M-men A-always R-riding I-in N-navy E-equiptment. they should be thanking us, not hating us.|||Marines usually carry a grudge against the Navy but it's the Navy that gives them a ride to wherever they need to go.|||I like the Navy, they're good guys. I like all the branches. All the ribbing we give out is all in good fun. I don't dislike any other service member.|||Im army but last time I was in Iraq I was stationed at a marine COB. I had no problems with them but from the way they wrote in the port a johns, I think they hate about everyone.|||They hate everybody.|||I believe it's the Army because they are at the bottom of the food chain. But don't take my work for it.|||probably the navy because they are p ussies

How to hang a everlast heavy bag to a tree branch?

What branch of physics covers nano-science and nanotechnology?

I know nano-science is mostly a chemistry discipline (physical chemistry to be precise) with fermionic structures, but I just wanted to know: What branch of physics would mostly cover the topics of nano-science and nanotechnology? Condensed matter physics or quantum physics? I was thinking condensed matter with bosonic structures and all, but since quantum physics can cover many disciplines, I'm not even sure at all.|||"Nanoscience, the behavior of physical systems when confined to near atomic, nanoscale (%26lt; 100 nm) dimensions together with the physical phenomena that occur at the nanoscale, is currently one of the most dynamic and rapidly developing areas of interdisciplinary research in applied physics. This is in large part because nanotechnology, the use of these properties and phenomena, is believed to have the potential to revolutionize a wide range of scientific and technological fields.





Applied Physics faculty research groups have played central roles in establishing and advancing the state of the art of nanofabrication and applying the resultant tools and capabilities in a wide range of nanoscience and nanotechnology research efforts. Today, Cornell Applied Physics investigators continue to lead innovative world-class research efforts in a broad range of areas concerned with understanding, manipulating, and applying materials and phenomena at the nanoscale. Because nanoscale science and technology are at the cutting edge of so much of today鈥檚 applied physics research, there is considerable overlap between these activities and others discussed here.





Nanomagnetics, the study and use of nanoscaled magnetic materials, is another area of inquiry. The recent discovery that the electron-spin polarized current flowing to or from a thin-film ferromagnet can reversibly switch the magnetic orientation of another nearby nanomagnet by a "spin-transfer" process is opening up the prospect of a new means for ultra-high-density information storage. It also could lead to the development of new nanoscale components for high-frequency electronics. Research concerned with the injection and manipulation of electron spin in normal metal and semiconductor nanostructures could lead to the development of quantum computer elements as well as to a number of other "spintronics" applications.





As discussed below, the control and use of the optical properties of materials at the nanoscale is a key aspect of efforts by Applied Physics faculty to develop new devices and systems for future photonics and optical communication applications.





An essential aspect of the nanoscience and nanotechnology program is a broad array of research activities that seek to develop new tools and techniques for the characterization and study of materials at the nanoscale and for the fabrication and processing of nanoscale devices and systems. These enabling nanoscale sciences and technologies include, in addition to the development of innovative approaches for ultra-high-resolution nanolithography and materials processing, the development of powerful, new scanned probe instruments for the measurement of electronic and magnetic properties at the nanoscale. Nanocharacterization research includes the development and application of analytical scanning transmission electronic microscopy techniques for determining the electronic structure of interfaces of heterogeneous materials with atomic resolution."

What branch of the military can I join if I have eczema?

I really wanted to join the marines, but eczema after the 9th birthday is disqualifying, so what branch


can I join?|||My senior scout has eczema and he's been deployed 3 times. Granted Iraq definitely has it's harsh conditions but I gave him some prednazone and aquaphor it didn't slow him down at all.





Just don't tell anyone. Treat it to where it won't be noticeable when they examine you and once you're in, you're in. Don't tell anyone about it until you're in Basic Training. By that time, the Army needs to get it's moneys' worth out of you.|||I think for now you better treat your eczema first because after all there are a lot of natural remedies that you can choose from. Eczema is not disabling so why limit yourself? You might want to try these proven remedies for eczema such as taking grape seed which has resveratrol know to be a potent anti oxidant against eczema, essential oil medications to be applied topically two to three times a day intended to relieve the skin from eczema. Your diet also counts in your quest to fight eczema and be free naturally. Avoid foods that could stimulate allergens use oils such as olive oil instead of the tradional vegetable or palm oil.|||The medical enlistment standards are the EXACT SAME for EVERY branch. They are governed by the Department of Defense...not the individual branch. So a disqualifying condition in one is a disqualifying condition in all.|||redleg is right but there is such a thing as medical wavers. You can talk to your doctor about this and see what he can do.

What branch of service is best for a person who wants to become a Firefighter?

ok im 17 and i know i can join now but i was wondering what branch would take me further into my dream job of becoming a firefighter but i dont want to just be any norm. firefighter i want to be a fire chief.|||Perhaps I am biased because I was in the Navy, but the Navy has a fire department on every base and on every ship, so there are many opportunities for such a career. Furthermore, learning to fight fires while underway onboard a ship is a unique type of training for fighting fires in enclosed quarters that you won't find anywhere else.





If you want to be a civilian fire chief, I would also plan on finishing a degree or getting some training in hazardous materials disposal, as many fire departments are being called on to handle this role.|||Air Force has their own firefighters. So perhaps the AF?|||probably the Marines.|||The Navy has the best. They are all good but the Navy is really the best.

What branch of the military has the shortest service length?

I'm not really happy with where I am in my life, and I really want to join the military. I just don't want to be away for so long. What branch of the military has the shortest mandatory active duty service length? Also, when I get out of the military, where can I go with my life? I'm already certified in security, so I could probably join a private security firm right?|||All military branches have a standard 4x4 Active/Inactive Reserve obligation.





There are certain programs that will allow you to go 2x8 but it's difficult to take your military experience seriously with only two years in. That's not even long enough to get your GI Bill benefits.





If you want to do Private Security, I would recommend going Military Police. The training you'll get at the MP School will prepare you for similar "Security" jobs in PMC's after you get out.





Good luck.|||IF U MEAN CONTRACT? THE ARMY HAS A 2 YEAR CONTRACT. I WOULD THINK THATS THE SHORTEST

In what ways should our judicial branch be different?

We talk a lot about he executive and legislative branches, but what changes would you like to see in the judicial branch? Could be improve our economy with changes to the judicial branch? Things such as caps on civil suits, for example? Or malpractice caps? Or frivolous lawsuits? Even in criminal cases, how could we improve?|||The U.K. has a system I like in which the defending party can counter sue for damages if a frivolous lawsuit fails to win. That would discourage probably half of them.

What branch of the military is the best choice to be an MP?

I plan on enlisting within the next few months. I've taken the ASVAB. My AFQT is 65. I would like to know what's the best branch to join for MP's. Where do i have a higher possibility to actually go up in rank, and have a high chance of getting a federal or state law enforcement job after my service?|||If you are looking at having the job guaranteed before enlisting, Army. The Army is the only branch that will guarantee Military Police training prior to shipping to training. If you are looking at using military training for federal, state or local law enforcement jobs after your time in the military you may not want to lock yourself into 31B. There are many jobs that provide a better background for civilian law enforcement (11 series, 74D, MI, ETC) than M,P,|||Army or the Marines, both branches have their advantages. 1st their schools are in the same place, so the training is similar but with the Army, MP school and boot camp are together. Marines go through boot camp then MCT, then they go to the school (which means more training). The Army is bigger so there is more room for advancement. They both get deployed and they both get gate duty so it's really up to you.|||The Army being the largest branch and still growing we are the best for promotions and bonuses. We also have the most bases and thus you have more chance for mobility. I don't know which branch would give you the best leg up with other agencies in law enforcement.|||Definitely Army.





Just being in the service will give you that 1up on other people applying for the same job and the MP training will help as well.

What branch of military is best fit for a law inforcment canidate?

Iam planning to join the military to pruseue my carrier as a police officer. What branch of military service would suit me best?

Serve, get on to the streets and clean them up|||Infantry is a major bonus on the police force. Especially if you are looking to SWAT.|||Sniper, %26amp; sharp shooter|||-Work on your English before you pursue a military/police career.


To be honest, being in the military has nothing to do with being a police officer. If you want to be a police officer, go to a police academy or technical school.


BEST OF LUCK!!!!|||Improve your english first, because the number one priority of being a police officer is a good communicator. When you are in the streets you are the man in charge and if citizens cannot understand your instructions then SOL, you may face a lawsuit!





Good luck!|||You're not a citizen until you've been here for 13 years. Second, you don't have to join the military to be a cop. If you want to anyway, I'd say Air Force or Navy since we're currently at war and if you join the Marines or Army then it is likely you won't return to have your chance at law enforcement. There is also always the Coast Guard and National Guard, but often for them to have the same "weight" in an application you need more years of service. If you want to get into law enforcement right away find a local agency that needs people, sheriff's departments are generally good starting points. Military time is good, but when you're pursuing law enforcement, the best experience is law enforcement experience, so find a department that will let you on and move up from there.|||Before you consider joining the military, I'd first look into getting your high school diploma or GED. Without one of those you won't make it into any branch of the military and more likely than not, would also be declined for application into any sort of law enforcement training schools, etc.|||U S Army, the school is located at Fort Leonard Wood, MO.

Is this an actual branch or a special costume. Also where can I get it? The ultimate deliverable for this question is a link to a place where I can buy the black uniform.|||That could only be the U.S. Navy. Of course...according to Big Navy our uniforms are really, really, really dark navy blue. But those uniforms are typically called Johnny Cash's after the man in black himself.|||The police and even fire department do have military style dress clothes.

I'm thinking of going into the military, but i want to make video games. Which branch can best prepare me for that type of career?|||airforce or navy... unless you think its ok to find yourself walking patrol in iraq or afganistan instead of behing a computer monitor. in any case do not sign anything unless you have in writing what your assignment will be. dont take anyones word, if it aint in writing you have no guarantees.|||Any branch of the military has IT and electronics communications people. The Army has Signal Corps for instance. If you can do well enough on the ASVAB, ask your recruiter if any positions are available.

What is a good branch and mos of military?

I want to be in communications like a radio operator or one of the guys that watch radar so what's branch and mos of that branch would be good for me?|||The navy is always using communications all the time. im in the navy as an engineer and i just hear how much Combat Systems and operations department does. best bet be an OS (operations specialist) they dont really do anything inport at sea they dont do alot though but you also have nothing better to do. the school isnt to long either. Electronics Technican (ET) and IT deal with the radios the school is longer though i believe around 1 year 6 months long but you come out as an E4 ( Rank in the navy) and you get paid pretty decnet money plus like a 25000 bonus you have to be in for 6 years though be smart. its also probably the safest branch.|||That's definately navy. The army also has their MOS based in communications, however the Army does not guarentee an MOS at the time you enlist. The Navy on the other hand will offer you a selection of rates (our version of the mos) if IT or ET is on your list you choose it, sign your contract, and are guarenteed to go to your schooling straight after bootcamp. There is no funny business like "do this job for two years andy then we will see." Also the navy is the only branch where your advancement is solely up to you. We take tests based on our occupation and if you score high enough you advance. Recruiters from other branches will try to sell you on how great their advancement is but after advancing from E-1 to E-6 in 6 years I speak from experience. I would reccomend you talk with your local navy recruiter soon if you are even remotely interested in joining any branch because the process can be overwhelming and no matter which branch you choose, they will most likely help you and give you the real deal.|||every branch has it's different stuff, you should really look somewhere other than yahoo answers to find which branch is right for your career path. i would go marine or air force. marines are some of the most respectable people out there, the training is intense and the amount of discipline required to be a marine is amazing. you get so physically and mentally fit, just wow. air force is more on the easy side, laid back, less organization, they take good care of the dependants and tend to get more leeway. their bases are also nicer. you could wear a ponytail in the airforce but if one little hair is sticking out of your bun in the marines, lol. I come from a navy family, and so far everything has worked out great. no matter where you go if you work hard you'll succed. but most importantly, GO TO COLLAGE! if you sign on in the military for x amount of years sometimes they will give you a full ride to collage and you get paid for it! they do more than just college too, training courses, seminars, medical schools, whatever. you get so much more money and because so much more litterate. please, for society. anywayz about which branch, you need to look into which one is right for your career path. good luck!|||13f

Which is the best branch to serve when joining the military?

I am a year 12 student in Australia. I have a question asking which branch i would prefer to serve if i were to join the military and why.





First i don't even know how many branches there are, so can someone tell me what they are and the good and bad points of each or explain the differences to assist in making my decision. Also, what tasks are the most difficult and dangerous?





I have tried google but i didn't find anything helpful.|||People who don't know anything about Australia should pipe down - Australia does not have a 'Coast Guard", save for a completely civilian volunteer organization that sails around on bright yellow motorboats.





The three branches are:


- Australian Army - the land force of the ADF. Recruit training here is physically tougher than the other branches, and plenty of work and training is done outside your posting.





- Royal Australian Navy - consider if if you're interested in a life out at sea. Long hours, shifts and a lot of technical jobs available. Good opportunity to visit foreign ports.





- Royal Australian Air Force - a bit like the Army in some respects, but most of your work is done within the limits of your airbase.





Each branch has dozens of specific jobs and specializations, some of them overlapping with jobs from other branches.





My advice - do not look for the ideal branch of the Australian Defence Force to join - look a particular job that interests you from across the three branches. There is no point in picking a service if you're just going to get enlisted into a job you don't like.





What tickles your fancy? Policing - check out the RAAF SECPOLs. Apprenticeships - check out the RAAF and the Army. Infantry work - all three branches have it in some form or another, with varying levels of toughness. Flying - all three branches require pilots, but for different types of aircraft.|||This was very helpful to me also. Thanks!

What branch of military should I choose and what job to be stationed where I want?

I am debating between Air Force or Army right now. I am not interested in combat but rather I am interested in a position that would have me stationed in a military base in some exotic place of the world (islands, Europe, Russia, Japan (so on and so forth). What branch of the military should I choose for that? And what jobs would more likely land me in a base somewhere exotic like that?





Thanks!


-David.|||You would need to choose a generic job that each base would need in order to be able to travel to lots of different places like you are interested in.

There is no initial entry job that would ensure you are assigned to Europe. There isn't any initial entry jobs that would get you to Russia (specifically) either. You could join as a linguist, hope for Russian and then after proving yourself request further linguist training and assignment to DTRA. But even that would likely get you stationed in the DC area with frequent trips to Russia. There simply aren't any jobs that get you to a particular area.|||i would say the Navy would be your best bet if you want to travel. Which it sounds like that's one of the reason your joining.

You can also go Blue side which means your gonna be in a hospital on Base checking IV's and diagnosing people.Now where that base it at is up to you because based on your scores when you get out of A-school(Tech School for the AF) that will determine were you you will be stationed.

With a decisive victory in 1865 over Southern secessionists in the Civil War, the United States became a united and powerful nation, with a more powerful national government. Reconstruction brought the end of slavery and citizenship for the ex-slaves, but their political power was later rolled back and they became second class citizens under a "Jim Crow" system of segregation. Politically the nation in the Third Party System and Fourth Party System was mostly dominated by Republicans (except for two Democratic presidents). After 1900 the Progressive Era brought political and social reforms and the modernization of many areas of government and society, such as new roles for education and a higher status for women.





In an unprecedented wave of European immigration, 27.5 million new arrivals between 1865 and 1918[2] provided the labor base for the expansion of industry and agriculture and provided the population base for most of fast-growing urban America.





By the late nineteenth century, the United States had become a leading global industrial power, building on new technologies (such as the telegraph and steel), an expanding railroad network, and abundant natural resources such as coal, timber, oil and farmland, to usher in the Second Industrial Revolution.





There were two important wars. The US easily defeated Spain in 1898, which unexpectedly brought a small empire, of which Puerto Rico and (and some smaller islands) became permanent possessions (as did Alaska, added by purchase in 1867, and Hawaii, which was annexed by the U.S. in 1898).





The United States late (1917) entry in World War I on the side of the Allied Powers led to a decisive Allied victory thanks to American financial, agricultural, industrial and military strength.|||The armed citizens IE the militia that is talked about in the second amendment.

If you want to get the advantages of the military and make a difference as well as be brave and loyal, go Army.





If you like ships and being out in the sea (and don't suffer from sea sickness easily), go with the Navy.





If you are more on the intellectual side (don't get me wrong, you still have to bephysicallyy fit) and don't really want to go one on one with the enemy, go Air Force.

(a) The Amendment鈥檚 prefatory clause announces a purpose, butdoes not limit or expand the scope of the second part, the operativeclause. The operative clause鈥檚 text and history demonstrate that itconnotes an individual right to keep and bear arms. Pp. 2鈥?2.





(b) The prefatory clause comports with the Court鈥檚 interpretation.|||Proving AGAIN that the Second Amendment is an individual right of citizens, not a collective right of the National Guard or any other organization to exercise that right "on behalf of" the citizens.





Imagine what would happen if the government decided that some of your OTHER constitutional rights are not really for you, but for some organization to exercise your rights on your behalf.





So you don't have the right to freedom of speech, some elite club of speakers will exercise that right for you.





You don't have the right to freedom of the press, some goverment agency will write all news on behalf of privately owned newspapers.





You don't have freedom from illegal search and seizure, the government will designate a certain building to be off limits to illegal search and seizure to exercise that right on your behalf.





You don't have freedom of religion, the government will choose one specific religion, and it will select only the most religious individuals to belong to it, to exercise your freedom of religion on your behalf.

Thanks.|||While my personal experience is entirely in the CG, I'd submit finding the "action" has more to do with seniority (or lack thereof) than service. The junior officers - O-1, O-2, O-3 - are generally in the middle of the action, all services. When you get more senior than that - you often find youself in a supervisory, non front line role.

I was just curious which one makes the most money?|||They all make the same according to their rank/time in. An E-3 in the Army (Private First Class) will make the same pay as an E-3 in the Navy (Seaman) so on and so forth.





EDIT: Well the down voting happy freak doesn't seem to realize that all pay is the same but some jobs and situations get extra money. But hey I can't control the anal retentive people on this board that get their feelings hurt when people don't get all text book informative on them and write 5+ paragraph answers|||All branches pay the same. Every single one of them. The only difference comes with bonuses and special pay. The Army has BIG enlistment bonuses, the AF does not. The Navy has sea pay and Dive pay, the Army does not.





Base pay is the same for everyone.





The only way she can be a doctor in the military is to get her medical degree and THEN go in as an Officer. ALL doctors are Officer's. She would be unable to complete medical school while on Active Duty. There is just not enough time. It generally takes about 4-5 years to earn an Associates while on Active Duty and about 8-9 years to earn a Bachelor's. If she truly wants to be a Doctor, she needs to go to school first.|||Though all the answers here pretty much cover this question one thing was not mentioned. Doctors and Lawyers get higher pay than other officers of the same Rank as an incentive to get them to join the military.





That being said, the best thing for your daughter to do is get her doctorate first, then join.





One other thing just came to mind, I believe the military will pay off part of her college debt as an additional incentive but you would need to check with a recruiter on that.|||All branches of the US military pay the same exact base-pay, form the same exact pay-chart.





So within the limited context of base-pay it is all the same.











The Navy pays more more than any other service.





The Navy's SRB is the highest.





Every time you Re-Enlist they are offering a cap of $90k in front of you. [it changes depending on what your rate / NEC is. If your job is hard and requires a lot of schooling, then your SRB is higher].





The Navy routinely sees tax-free service. It is common to serve for decades where your salary is completely tax-free. I was tax-free from 1983 until I retired in 2001. The Army, AF, Marines will only see tax-free status while they are being shot at.





While most solders, marines and airmen are being paid 'base pay'; sailors routinely will bring home three to four times more.





In my case, base pay was commonly 1/4 of my take home paycheck.





If you want money to party with; if you want money to invest with; if you want money for college; then go for the highest pay.





Their will be folks who will lie to you, they will say that all military gets paid the same. Just ask any navy recruiter how much the current SRB level is for a ET1 Nuclear Reactor Operator, buckle your seat belt, as it will take a few minutes for him to look it up, but then $90k will be his answer.





I was not a nuc, but I got $65k every 4 years when I re-upped.





Also when you look at the paycharts, keep in mind that the Navy commonly pays sailors bunches of the extra pays and allowances.

Financially, each offers the same set of pay grades for the enlisted (E-1 to E-9) or the officers (O-1 to 0-10); the names of the ranks are different not the pay checks.





Each service has the same education opportunities for the GI Bill and the tuition assistance programs; they just have different opportunities to use them while still serving.





The big difference is lifestyle that is offered by each branch. The Air Force and the Navy have fewer positions that are directly combat related though both have positions that are extremely tough (pararescue and combat controllers with the Air Force; the SEALS in the Navy).





There are special programs that do offer more money in each of the different services. Those bonuses are not being offered because you are a nice person; they are offered because those positions are difficult to fill (based on qualifications or interest).


You need to contact your local recruiters to get the specifics offered at this time.





You should ask veterans that you know which service they would choose if they were to do it all over again, then ask what their second choice would be. Those opinions should matter to you more than a bunch of unknown people going through Yahoo Answers.|||depends on what you're looking for...

The only problem I had is that I realized I had never made to a branch of mathematics that deals extensively with circular motion!





I know it will eventually be one of my courses throughout school, but I would like to begin studying it now.... Where should I start? Am I looking at an introduction to Trig, or am I missing something entirely?|||For circles, you'll want to learn trigonometry - look up the unit circle, it sounds like this is exactly what you are looking for.





If you want to expand your project to deal with other kinds of curves at a later date, start learning basic calculus.|||There's a number of ways you could approach this, I guess.





Maybe CO-ORDINATE GEOMETRY which would get you working with points in two dimensions, the equations of straight lines, the distance between points, and the equations of curves, including circles.





Later you could move on to three dimensions.





All of that is going to need a certain ability to handle ALGEBRA.





If you're particularly interested in motion, then maybe some MECHANICS is going to be needed, but I'd say that comes after the other two topics I've mentioned.





As always, Google is your gateway to a ton of goodness :-)





There are some free graphing software packages out there, stuff like Geo-Gebra and Graph which you might want to get hold of.





Hope that helps.

You don't get to choose where you go. They tell you to go someplace, and you go there. You are THEIR property...or the property of the US government.





I would not recommend any branch. The reality of it is that they most likely will not even look at you because you are a mother. You did not say if you had a significant other, but if you do choose to try to get in the military, you will need to have another person be totally responsible for your child and be willing to take over guardianship of your child in the event you die while in the service.

I am prior Army, Air force and present Navy dependant and I can tell you the Air Force is a lot better to their men and women but you will be most likely stuck in one place. And more then likely the US. With the Navy you are most always guarunteed a chance to see some of the world. It's a bit hard on the family emotionally if you have a wife and child along the way because you are 75% of the time gonna leave for a period of time. So you need to look at the whole picture.

The only thing you can refer to as a boat in the Navy is a Sub. You'll travel more in the Navy but most people say the Air Force is a cushy job.

Jonnie|||Air Force, better food, better skills and a less chance of coming back in a body bag!|||If you want the job done..........call the MARINES ;)|||marine corp|||Think of the mission/purpose of each of the services.





The army is to shoot a rifle, canon, or be part of a tank crew, with a little bit of helicopter flying. Everyone in the army does or support that.





The Air Force purpose is to fly planes to support the war, fighters, bombers, all kinds of support aircraft. Mission is to fly and all Air Force personal either fly or support that.





If you want to walk and crawl on the ground, join the army.





If you want to repair or fly aircraft, and sleep in a comfortable bed,


join the Air Force.|||a lot ot ppl say that the air force will treat u better, i'm planning on joining the marines though|||I would say the Navy or Air force because they seem to have more technical jobs to train for which can be used for college credit. Also, the comfort level was better than laying out in the mud. The Air Force bases I visited were nice and had a lot of things to do also. The thing that I noticed about the Air Force when compared to the Navy was that the potential to advance in rank was slower. I was a 2ND Class Petty Officer (E-5) at 21. When I went to an E-5, E-6 club at an Air Force base, I was the youngest guy there. People don't seem to want to leave the Air force so there's not much room to advance.





Another perk in the Navy was that I was able to circumnavigate the world. I visited Hawaii, Australia, Philippines, Turkey, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Panama, and Canada in 3 years.|||Well it depends on a lot of things. From my personal experience, the Air Force can give you the most 'normal type' life. Most AF jobs are 9 - 5 type Monday thru friday days. Well many, at least. You will share a small room in a dorm with another airman, until you are probably E-4 or E-5, depending on if it's full or not.





Anyhow, Military bases/posts have normal type things on them - shopping, arcades, movie theatres, stores, coffee shops, Burger King, all that stuff.





The thing to do is, consider whether or not you are looking for a life time military career, vs. learning a skill you can use in your adult career life.|||None. If you have to.... the Coast Guard.

Which branch of military is the least likely to be stationed overseas?

I really would like to join the Air Force, and I am going to. Just out of curiosity, I was wondering which branch is the least likely to be stationed overseas. Thanks for your answers!|||The Coast Guard.|||All four branches, including the Coast Guard, which is under Homeland Security, get stationed overseas equally. When you enlist you sign a contact and become the property of the US government and you go where they send you.|||its a crap shoot where you go....





I would say Army since we have the most people...





if by stationed you dont mean a rotation overseas as in deployment...and you mean where you actually are working for X amount of years....|||I suggest you join the Salvation Army, but stay out of Detroit, St. Louis, New Orleans, ETC. they are more dangerous than Iraq.|||Coast Guard, then the Marines. There are no Coast Guard bases outside of the U.S. and there is only one Marine Corps base overseas(Okinawa, Japan). The other branches have a good number of overseas bases.|||Coat Guard or reserves in any branch...even then you have an almost 100% chance of going overseas at some point in your enlistment...|||Coast Guard!|||Army. It seems they go a lot overseas in Germany.|||Coast Guard even though they do go over there sometimes|||They all get deployed and they all go over seas. sorry

What branch of military will pay for nursing school?

I already have a BA, but would like to become a nurse. What branch of military will provide financial aid to get my nursing license and then serve?|||None.





You could apply for a ROTC scholorship.





You would then have to go to summer camp ( think basic training )





And take the last two years of ROTC at your university.





You would also be paid a stripend of $300 or $400 a month.





Then you would be commissioned after graduating.





Two years would be enough time, to get a nursing degree if you already have a BA degree.





Some schools like Vanderbelt University have interdisiplinery


Nursing programs.





They are designed, for people who already have a degree other then nursing.





They are two years long and you graduate with a masters degree in nursing.|||I know the Army and Navy do. The Marines use the Navy for their medical needs (as far as I know). I have no idea about the Air Force.|||Army, Navy, and Air Force. They will pay for your school....but also know that you will owe them a set amount of service time %26amp; obligation (not sure of exact amount) in return.|||Army|||All of them but what the goverment wants is for you to die then they dont have to pay for anything. You cant cash in if your dead. Sorry but thats the truth also the benefits went way down when you work for the military you sell your soul to Mr. George W. Bush he tells you what to do when to do it and you have no say sorry to anyone who disagrees.


Goverment is terrible you wont believe what they hide from you they kill people to keep the secrets o.k. your life means nothing to them they see you as a number|||Well, I can tell you that everyone on here is wrong except Jeeper but he is wrong also as you already have a degree and cannot do ROTC. None of the services will pay for you to go to school UNLESS, you are already in and apply to the Armed Forces School of Medicine and get accepted. Now if you want to join and acquire a job in the medical field and go to school why you are in, the services all have tuition assistance of some sort. As far as nurses go you already have to be one, then there is a selection process from there. Good luck

What branch of communications major can you choose that requires travel?

Im going to major in communications and i love travel and learning different languages,cultures ect.. what branch of communications should i focus on that will require lots of traveling?|||A Communications major does not train you for any particular job which is why so many communications majors are unemployed. You will need to find a company that requires lots of travel, but your major won't help you.


I know two communications grads who are unemployed and they graduated over two years ago.|||Journalism might give you an opportunity to eventually travel (especially if you are a reporter). Other than that, it'll be the job you get--not necessarily the degree you have--that will dictate if you travel. But I don't believe there is a specific degree that will guarantee more travel than any other.

What branch of the service will give me the best shot at working with military working dogs?

I want to be a K-9 cop in the future but i also want to do 4 years in the service which branch will give me the best opportunity?|||Master at arms. Navy.|||I know most services have K-9 units but the Navy has a big program because it covers and patrols all the ships and submarines. I have seen the seasoned dogs and the trainings come into my work place.|||Most defiantly Air Force! Since your planning on being enlisted the AF has security forces and then if you do well enough you can work with the dogs!|||They will ALL give you the very best training in K-9 control, but you must first become a military police officer.|||the air force got an enlisted job, security forces, that's working with military dogs.|||I'm guiessing anything civil like doctor or something

Which branch of the US military gets the most comprehensive medical training?

I know the Marines don't have a medical branch, it is supplied by the Navy. And I mean in a general sense, not counting Special Operations. I was led to believe that the Navy did.|||Yeah I think your right, my dad was in the Air Force and I'm pretty sure there medical branch wasn't nearly as extensive as Navy.|||Medical training for what ?



You need to be more specific.



General medics/corpsmen are EMT trained



But there are 40 or so enlisted medical jobs in each service.



2. If your talking about medics in general, each service branch offers higher levels of training



Army flight medics are now paramedic trained and they have LPN positions.

Air Force flight medics are LPN trained

Navy has independent duty corpsmen who are pretty much paramedic trained.|||Depends on what MOS as a medical practitioner. Most likely though, it would be the Navy. The next best would be the Air Force.|||Combat Medic. You're in the field out patrolling with people, not on a ship or airbase, so of course they receive the most training.|||navy or air force

What branch of chemistry deals with the study of psychedelic drugs?

I'm a junior in high school, and I'm starting to think of some possible majors for college. I am very intrigued by psychedelic drugs, having some experience with LSD. I've been considering pursuing medicinal chemistry, because i think it would be mad cool to synthesize beneficial drugs, and improve on already synthesized drugs. What branch of chemistry deals with psychedelic drugs, such as mescaline, psilocybin, and LSD?|||If you wish to synthesize any type of drugs or other molecules then you want Organic Chemistry. You will need to take that before you can do biochem or pharmacology.|||biochemistry and pharmacology.

What branch of law travels abroad the most?

I want to practice law, but I also want to travel a lot. What branch travels abroad the most?|||There is little foreign travel in any branch of the law. International law, which is a very small % of the legal field, might have some overseas travel opportunities.|||International law. (Which there are few jobs in).





The law is different in every country, so your law degree is generally worthless in a foreign country.

What branch has the least amount of grunt work?

And more skills that involve intelligence. Someone that just came out of college and was smart, what branch would be best for him?|||The chair force|||Coming out of college, you'd want to go through Officer Candidate School and become an officer since you have a Bachelor's Degree and it would allow you to make more money that way.





Air Force pays very well and has a lot of technical jobs which pay very well. The only "grunt" job would be special forces within the Air Force. You'd need to specifically apply for this though. They take care of a lot of extremely extensive equipment (to include Intercontinental ballistic missiles, aka nuclear weapons)





However, the Navy also has their nuclear program, which produces highly proficient nuclear engineers. Officers in the Nuclear Navy (ships that are powered with nuclear reactors: certain submarines and aircraft carriers) can make well over $100K a year, with benefits that meet or exceed the civilian sector, especially with the tax advantage. The bigger subs (called "boomers") carry nuclear weapons as well.





A "grunt" is a slang term for an infantryman, and since every Marine is a rifleman, even if you take a technical job (since there's a host of support jobs in each service, not just infantry, artillery and other Combat Arms jobs) you would still learn the grunt aspects of the military in the Marine Corps. This is one of the things that makes the USMC intrinsically different from the other branches.


The Army also has a number technical jobs, to include grunt jobs.





In short:


Air Force or Navy (especially if you go through Nuclear Power School in the Navy)|||Navy or Airforce. As actually grunts are used to describe Army infantry or Marine infantry. Hope that clears it up for you|||Depends on your degree. If you are engineer then the Air Force or Navy. Possessing a degree does always equate with intelligence. Many colleges have turned into diploma mills.|||Grunts are in the Army and Marines. I repaired avionics electronics in the Air Force.|||The chAir Force.|||if you havent noticed we are at war so all branches are doing grunt work|||What makes you think they would want you?|||air force

What is the least restrictive military branch?

What is the least restrictive (medically) military branch? I've HEARD from different sources that none of them have the exact same requirements and I have been unqualified for service from the Navy. Any suggestions?|||all five Branches use the same standards. what each branch will waive differs. currently no branch is granting many waivers at all.





IF you have any shot at all it is with the Army. but depending on what the issue is, don't hold your breath.|||The medical requirement for enlistment are governed under the same DOD regulation. A DQ in one is a DQ in all. That is why you go to MEPS and not AEPS or NEPS or AFEPS|||try army, they'll figure out a way to get you in, either with some kind of waiver or just straight up lying to the military. depends on the recruiter.

How does Congress limit the Executive Branch of Government?

Also, what are the legislative processes of the executive branch? I'm not sure what legislative processes mean! Please give examples for both questions if possible. Thanks!|||Somebody needs help on their hooomework|||independant prosecutor reporting to a congressional grand jury...

How do you contact your branch manager for pcs?

Stupid Question: How do you contact your branch manager to see if there is an opening at a specific duty station? I want to pcs to a specific duty station (up for re-enlistment) and was told that there were no openings. But after speaking with a superior, it was suggested to contact "Branch". What is "Branch" and how do I contact them? I do not have an email or phone number; it appears that no one else does either.|||Army HRC

When is the best time to prune a large branch off a cherry tree?

Should I do it now, while the tree is still dormant, or wait until later this spring after it flowers, or in the summer or fall? This branch would be about one fifth of the tree. It is growing toward our house, and encroaching upon a smaller dogwood. I want to remove the branch to make sure the dogwood has room to grow.|||i would say in the fall. you cant really tell if the tree is dormant right now. i would consult a local nursery that sells cherry trees.|||The right pruning time for a Kanzan Cherry Tree (clustered frilly pom pom pink blooms) is in late Spring or early Summer. The Kanzans produce flowers for next year in late Summer and if you wait until Fall to prune, they will all be lost.

Report Abuse


|||All pruning should be done when the tree is dormant in the winter. NOW NOW NOW.|||I tried to get a hold of George Washington but he did not answer allways after it blooms the branches will be better developed lessing your chances of killing it|||Late summer or early fall. Protect the freshly exposed cut with caulk or tar.|||All fruit bearing trees should be pruned in the winter while they are dormant. During that time, virus' and insects are not out and about so the tree has time to heal over the cuts. The state conservation and extension ed. dept say to never put tar on tree wounds or cuts. Be sure to prune at an angle so water doesn't gather in the cut. I am a master gardener and this is actually on the test I had to pass. Good Luck and God Bless|||If you live south of Zone 5, you will need to wait until late fall as it is already too late to prune any fruit trees except peach (which are purned just before flowering). If you live in Zone 5 or farther north, prune now. Don't wait.

The founding fathers thought the legislative branch is the most important?

Is that right?


If it is, why did they think that the legislature branch was the most important?|||Yes, it is correct. the legislative branch was the most important because it concerned the needs of the people. this is why article one is the longest because it details the rules that house of representative, senate, and congress needed to follow like how old they had to be or where to live and the proceedures they needed to follow. hope this helped....

How to freehand paint a tree branch on a wall?

I am painting my soon to be baby's room. The theme is Winnie the Pooh and I want to freehand paint a branch coming out from the window. What would be the easiest way to do that?|||http://mariesmanor.hotusa.org/NURSERY/Wi鈥?/a>





http://mariesmanorbedrooms.com/projectio鈥?/a>





congrats to you.|||You may want to use graphite paper first. Draw a branch onto a large sheet of drawing paper until you have a look you are happy with. Tape the paper to the wall and lay a piece of graphite paper underneath and trace, it will give you the outline of the branch. Then paint. What a cute idea! :o)|||The projector is a good idea - also if you want the branch to look more realistic, mix up 3 shades of paint - light, dark and medium. Blend the light color on the tops of the branch(es) and the darker underneat. Look at a branch outside and see how the sunlight hits the top making it lighter and there is a shadow under it - that's what you want to replicate.|||You could also rent a projector to place a picture of the branch exactly as yo uwant it then just trace it.

Can I use a regular tree branch for a crystal tree in the wedding?

We would spray paint it white or silver, just wondering if it could hold the crystals and candles. The wedding wouldn't be until August of 09 and the bride already has the branch.|||If you secure the branch into a pot with cement it will be weighty enough to hold the crystals and candles.|||by then, the branch may have dried out and be unable to hold any weight on the smaller parts of the branch.... dead and dry and it will snap off....suggest she choose one later.... the cemented in the pot trick works good.....

What made you decide to join the military branch you joined over the other military branches?

What did you see in your military branch that you didn't see in others?|||Originally, I was looking for college money - so I didn't have a degree. I wanted to be in the action - but without a degree, I couldn't be a fighter pilot, so the Air Force was out. I didn't want to be brainwashed so that left out the Marine Corps (don't judge... it's what I thought at the time. I learned since then that I was wrong!). I considered the Navy, but if something goes wrong, I may be a strong swimmer, but there are oceans that are THOUSANDS of miles across, so they were out. That left the Army - and I became an Infantryman.





After several years and some urging from a good friend, I got out and moved to the Coast Guard. I like the military lifestyle, but the Coast Guard treats our members more like people instead of just numbers.





I never regretted my decision, and will soon retire from my career - and it's been a blast!|||For me it was job selection. I wanted to be a door gunner on a helo. The army did not offer that position. I was originally going to join the army when i was looking to enlist, but the Marines offered the exact job i was looking for. Other people join branches because of the living conditions, or the hope of traveling. I think that's dumb. Sure, you go home to your own dorm every night, but you hate the job you do in the morning. If you are looking to enlist, go with the branch that will guarantee you what you want to do.|||I basically used the process of elimination. I refused to be on a crappy old ship getting sea sick for months on end (this excluded the Navy). I refused to spend months being brain washed in basic training (this excluded Marines). I didn't want to end up all manly (this excluded the Army). I didn't think I was strong enough for extreme physical activity (this excluded Coast Guard). So I was left with the Air Force. I'm so happy with my decision.|||I talked to the Air Force recruiter to get avionics (aviation electronics) and they wouldn't take me because of some minor legal things. I asked the Air Force recruiter what he would recommend for avionics. He told me to avoid the Army because it is huge and you can get lost and not get what you want. He told me the Marine Corps went to Navy schools and Navy schools were the best in the military for aviation.





I talked to the Navy recruiter and he wanted me to join for 6 years. I found out, later, I could have joined for 4 years. I finally decided to talk to the Marine recruiter and he was straight forward with his answers. He even called to get my test scores to see if I could get avionics. I ended up getting exactly what I wanted. I got avionics and I flew as a door gunner in Vietnam for two tours.





I see that Cook MC was a door gunner. I never looked at the avatar close enough to realize this. Semper Fi!





Swing with the Wing! That's the Marine Corps Air Wing!|||That is simple. The capability to chose my specific job as well as the short promotion time, granted that also depends on what job you pick. Now you have to ask yourself this, what is most important to you? Do you value the high state of discipline that the Marine's are know for? Or do you admire the working with air crafts, the ability to almost nearly pinpoint your next duty station the Air Force can provide. Or do you enjoy working with a very large section on a massive battle ship? After factoring all these things and more I ultimately chose The Army. Because unlike the Navy and Air Force, we do not promote on occupational competency we promote based on how well you do at a board and points. As for the Marine's I really don't know much about them|||For me it was elimination.





I got glasses and couldn't be a pilot anymore, so I didn't want any other Air Force jobs before lasic was accepted.


I hate ships and being confined, so that left the Navy and Marines out.


That just left the Army. And I still spent a tour on fricking ship.|||Always wanted to be a sailor, would watch the ships when I was a kid.|||needed a challenge and wanted to be in the best branch so there was only one option.. oorah devil dogs|||MARINE CORPS!!

How should one determine which branch of military service to join?

Whichever branch, I am interested in becoming an officer.|||By talking to an Officer Recruiter from each branch and seeing what they have to offer you and determining if that's the direction you want to go in with your life.





GOOD LUCK!!!|||What do you want to do with your life? It you like being around the water, the navy would be good, if you are more interested in armament then the Army or Marines would be good, and if Air, space, and technology are your bag, then the Air Force would be good. Your choice. But i can tell you this. The Air Force officer will have a better quality of life than any other branch. In fact the Air Force enlisted have it better (living conditions) than most other branch officers.





USAF Veteran|||Sheesh! If you're an adult and you have to ask...maybe you shouldn't be joining?


But if you're young and just starting to look into or considering military careers then...go to all the different branch websites and learn what each branch actually does. Then, go talk to all your local recruiters (but don't agree or sign ANYTHING untill you know what you want for sure. See what they have to offer, programs, education, etc. See what MOS's (jobs/career fields) are available.


If you want to become an officer you HAVE to have a college degree. Maybe look into an ROTC program. Decide what job you want to do. Do you even know what an officer does, etc? Research and READ. Also, consider the level of intensity you want to work under. Marine Corps and Army are known to have a tougher boot camp. Airforce and Navy are generally a little more relaxed.


Hope that helps!

What Military Branch should I join for CIA Clandestine Service/ ROTC?

Hi





I'm a Senior in High School and I finally decided that i want to go into CIA Clandestine Services. Just wanted to know what Military Branch would be best for the CIA, also I'm planning on applying for ROTC from the Branch I choose.





Also, what should I major in college? I have to choose some technical major or Science for ROTC, I was thinking Physics or some type of engineering major.|||Doesn't matter on the branch... They only look through Special Operations and Special Forces.





Basically, they need to have 300 PFT (which most guys do in SpecOps), 2nd or 3rd language speaking skills, well-educated (they mostly look for college grads), no waivers for drugs, Top Secret Clearance...





Basically the Special Operations community creates a Pool of possible recruits for the CIA.|||Well obviously you'll want to go into a reserve force, that way you can go to college at the same time and ROTC will keep you away from being shipped overseas. You can't be too picky right now because each branch's reserves are pretty full. Because of this, training slots are few which means that you'll have a very limited selection of jobs. Intel would be a good way to go, but so would any combat roles. I would go National Guard, personally, which is what I plan to do. Ironically, I was thinking about the Clandestine Service myself. I thought I might go to college for two semesters, hit up basic over the summer, then miss one or two semesters next year for AIT. Then, the summer after that I was hoping to be accepted into the Clandestine Service's internship, which I'd do for two summers if I was accepted.|||You cant just sign up for it like you can the Army or Navy.
