Question about MOS choice?
I am a senior in high school and have my heart set on becoming a Marine. After my service, I would like to pursue a career in law enforcement. My question is whether or not I should try to become an MP, or try to do infantry, which is what I really want to do. I have been told that I should pick an MOS that will help me in the civilian world, but that really isn't the reason I would like to serve. Infantry would be my first choice because it will be exciting, fast-paced and always something new. I've been told that most Marines hate MP's, and I understand that garrison MP's have a pretty boring job. Do field MP's see combat? And what are the chances that if I become an MP that I will be stuck doing garrison work? Also what is life an an infantryman like?
