    Got drafted in the Navy and treated so badly at boot camp (same with the others), that I said that the less people above me the better. I applied for OCS, made it and got my commission, all within 8 months. I served the required 36 months of active duty and 6 years in the Reserves. That was the end of my naval career. Circa 1950's.

      It all depends on your area of preference like medical or information. There’s a lot of fields for officers to go into so best advice is find your niche and research it then when you’re ready talk to an officer recruiter. Even if you’re 4yrs out from your degree at least you know what you should be shooting for.

      Hey, buddy! How are you? To become an officer you necessarily need to be a US citizen. Even if you get your Green Card you'll need to wait at least five years to get your citizenship. If you marry an American, this period will be compressed to three years. Anyway, hope I've helped you. Good luck!

      You may be eligible to enlist if you do not have a GED or High school Diploma, by acquiring a score of 50 on the Armed Forces Qualification TEST/ ASVAB.

    The military isn’t supposed to be a career path. Nor is it supposed to offer fringe benefits like free college, free housing, and free health insurance. It’s incredible how much money the military spends on each pair of boots.
    All that needs to end. Eventually, the cost of a soldier needs to be brought down to $30,000 a year; all inclusive. The military isn’t supposed to provide pensions, disability, or a private hospital system. Just a four-year one-page service contract. After that, it’s time to find a job. And remember: it’s a volunteer army, so anyone who signs-up knows that he’s taking a chance. That’s life.
