I do not know enough information nor would I trust a recruiter to give me a good picture of what I may face to draw a good conclusion about what opportunities I could be presented… I have a passion for physics, blowing things up, guns, programming and engineering. I have absolutely no desire to be the man behind the iron sights pulling a trigger, but if there is some way to get involved in some R&D with the military and I was given some realistic information, I would have a much firmer basis for what path I wish to follow, being non-military affiliated or performing some kind of engineering under subjects I am greatly passionate about.
I simply wish I had a source of honest information lacking the patriotic propoganda that the advertisements for the army and the recruiters could try to press into my mind.

Engineering Opportunities?
Posted on January 11, 2011.
If you want more info. go to someone you know in the military(DEFINITELY NOT A RECRUITER)
I would say that if you want to do engineering in the military, enlist in the Navy(or airforce[Navy has better plains]) and Build/do maintenance on Airplanes. I can’t tell you all of the details(i don’t know them all…) but that is a great engineering opportunity in the military
hope any of this helps….
Engineers blow things up and build things like bridges. It isn’t going to be like you’ll get a degree, though. The military doesn’t do R&D, they pay civilian contractors to do that.
