I checked to see if there was a topic like this, and didn't find one, so I hope I am not repeating anyone here.
In regards to the topic itself, I'm not looking to get my heart set on anything yet, but more-less to see what options I are available to me.
I am sixteen, and I do have my heart set on the military, and my dream is to be in special forces. I've got the drive and motivation, as there isn't anything else I've wanted to become, but I don't really know what is "out there".
What are some "all around" type jobs that the US SOF has? I'm leaning towards the Navy, and becoming a Corpsman (SARC?) in MARSOC or a SEAL medic, but was wondering if there are any other jobs to be had that deal with even more variety.
While I still have a lot of time to make up my mind, I'd like to be able to get an idea of what I will shoot for when my time comes so I can further prepare myself. My dilemma is that I want to "do it all". I'd like to parachute, dive, shoot, work with languages, and anything else I can fit on my plate. I could very well be getting ahead myself, and please let me know if I am. I'm not looking for an answer or directions, just some places I could go.
All in all, the needs of my country are going to come first, but if I can aim for an occupation that I will enjoy doing in the process, I feel it would only add to my enthusiasm and motivation.
