"The military teaches teamwork, fitness, and decision-making. It also trains service members in skilled occupations that are useful while theyre in the armed forces and, later, in civilian life. There are hundreds of these military occupational specialties (MOSs). Youre free to choose any MOS, depending on your qualifications, as soon as you join up. For many recruits, the chance for paid training in a job they enjoy is one of the best aspects of joining the military"--.
