| College and Career Planning - Military Options |
Many Presidents and great American leaders started their careers in the Military. The Military offers more than 4,100 unique jobs for both officers and enlisted personnel. And each year the Armed Services hire a combined 365,000 people to fill those positions. Benefits include classroom and on-the-job training, help paying for college, qualities for a successful life, and the pride that comes from serving your country. And military service often gives applicants for jobs the edge with corporate recruiters. You can save for the future, enjoy the benefits of military life, and learn skills for life.
