The Infantry soldier definitely faces a tough lifestyle, since much of the work is very physical in nature. There are long road marches with heavy rucksacks and field exercises that have you sleeping on the ground for nights on end. However, much of the training is fun as well, and allows you to do things you couldn't do in any other job. I found my job as an Infantry Rifleman to be pretty fulfilling; I got to train on numerous weapons systems like the M4 rifle, the M240B machinegun, and the M2 .50cal machinegun, among others. I served overseas in Afghanistan as an Infantry soldier, and was able to do my job on real world missions, which actually gave me the opportunity to help the Afghani people in ways I couldn’t have in other jobs; I saw combat in Afghanistan, but my experience there was positive overall. There is much public misconception about what an Infantry soldiers does, so don’t let negative stereotypes dissuade you from choosing a job that is invaluable to the Army. Although there are many other jobs in the Army, the Infantry is one of the oldest jobs and is still the foundation around which the entire organization is structured; every other job in the Army is in some way there to support the Infantry. If you want to do a real soldiering job, then Infantry is the way to go. |
