Enlistment US Military Checklist

September 11, 2008 By admin

We live in a technological and media age, but there is a large amount of information that is available for a person who wants to enlist in the United States Military. One of the main issues to military enlistment is knowing what you want to accomplish, and also what choices and programs are available to you. With the advent of the Internet, and the availability of information it literally is possible to research, and find out all about the different opportunities that are available to you as a potential US Military enlisted recruit. It can be a scary proposition to join the Armed Forces, but much of the anxiety can be eliminated by becoming well informed, and making a list of the questions that you want to know.

One of the main issues is knowing what is available in the military for you. You can learn a lot of information, and asking and searching will also give you a great deal of information. Believe it or not, visiting with a recruiter can also be a great source of information. Just because you visit a recruiter doesn?t mean that you have to join, in fact the people that report the greatest satisfaction with their military enlistment are the people that make more than a single trip to talk to the military recruiter in the service that they are interested in. The job of the recruiter is to help YOU, even though it does not always feel like that is the case. You should always take a friend; parent or family member with you when you go to talk to a recruiter, and being prepared as much as possible also is a big help. You have to have information to be informed; otherwise you cannot make wise and sound decisions about your future. Searching on the Internet is an excellent idea; take the time to look up different jobs with different services and branches of the Military.

Know Yourself: What are the things that you want to get out of joining the military? It may sound like a trite, or obvious question, but many people do not sit down and think about what their exact goal is in joining the Armed Forces. If you have a good grasp of what skills and abilities that you have within yourself, and a good idea of what you want to accomplish, what your goals and ideals are, then you are likely to be a great deal more successful.
