Is this job a good mos for a new recruit? How fast do the promotions come? Is it exciting? Where is Basic and AIT? What is its role in Iraq and Afghanistan? Thanks.

well its a good job to me but it depends on what u want out of the army. If u want to be a shooter then choose the job but u have to take into account that they do shoot back and even though u will look cool jumping out of a stryker or brad its hard work no sleep and its hard to get a day off but u will go to knox and stay there for 16 or 17 weeks and u will learn alot but in iraq your just another shooter, this is not a real war so they dont need scouts or recon teams so expect alot of patrols mounted or dismounted and maybe lp/op's but remember that u wont be in a office shit will happen and u will lose friends or maybe they will lose u but u have to be tough and understand what is expected of u...
