Armed Forces

"There is a wide range of exciting and satisfying military careers available without a college diploma. The military offers thousands of specialized jobs, and the majority of those have direct civilian counterparts. In the military, you earn a steady paycheck from the moment you sign up. If you join at age 18, you can serve a full 20 years and retire at age 38! What's more, the U. S. armed forces offer excellent educational benefits. After your tour of enlistment is over, a program called the Montgomery GI Bill provides financial support for you to continue your education. As a member of the U. S. armed forces, you are part of an organization that is important in the world. You're helping to defend the national security of the United States."--Provided by publisher.
