  • i want to go into the guard tobe a FIREFIGHTER or a MENTAL HEALTH SPECIALIST or a WATERCRAFT OPERATOR if anyone knows anything about any of these jobs in the milatary please contact me this is a big decition....

  • Answer:

    You're asking about very very very uncommon MOS's. You're going to have to find out if your state even has those positions available. Don't expect a bonus and don't expect to use those skills to directly translate to civilian work either. You need to have a plan to use your GI Bill to get you the civilian education and certifications you need to qualify for the job you want rather than just using your military experience as your entire resume. Good luck.

Those are pretty easy jobs man, it doesnt sound like you want to have a combat MOS. If you want to make a career out of the National Guard, pick an MOS that will help you get a good job... i would say that a Firefighter is a good job but the training is pretty hard...so ive heard, and you probably will never get deployed. ive never even heard of a Watercraft Operator because we dont have those in my state but it sounds pretty cool. Go to the national guard website and check them out

I think 9 out of every 10 people who ask on YA about going into the military want to be a firefighter. I think I'd definately want to be on base if a major fire broke out because we must have a boatload of people waiting to put it out.

the firefighter is a tough job..not many open slots. Its good one if you can get one. Mental Health is another good one..again tough to get into. I would call a recruiter.
