Could use some advice from Marines..Thanks

[casualdecay]

My original MOS was Supply Administration. I thought about changing my MOS to something more combat related. I feel that since I have the possibility of going to a combat zone I should choose a MOS that is combat related so I can have more combat training and be ready for any hostile encounters. Plus I may never have the chance to do something that is combat related ever again in my life and will be a experience I never forget for the rest of my life. I will be truthful and say that I am afraid to do combat and just be in a combat zone but I won't let fear get to me. Being afraid is something natural in human beings it's what you do while your afraid that counts. If I was really so afraid I wouldn't join the Marines or the military I just don't let the fear get the best of me. I will utilize all the training I receive to the best of my ability and be confident in what I do. I am unsure what MOS to choose from either
Artillery-MOS 0847 Artillery Meteorological Man
MOS 0811 Field Artillery Cannoneer
or
Infantry MOS 0341 Mortarman
....Google couldn't give me advice so hopefully some Marines would tell me what they feel or think. I apologize if any of my facts or opinions are wrong sorry in advance if I sound ignorant....Thanks for the help

How do you go from supply admin, which you probably won't even deploy and if you do your ass will be so far inside a main base you'll never see the wire, let along leave it...to mortarman, which you'll probably get shot at on a daily basis?

(hears voices say).....just leave and don't say anything..... leaving, I sir.

I originally picked supply admin as my second choice and mortarman as my third choice artillery was my fourth choice

My first choice was combat correspondent but I didn't have the asvab score.

Don't be a 0847. They just play with weather balloons and survey tripods all day (its no longer just weather, its sensory support/survey). Its pretty gay if you are looking for combat related jobs.
