Military careers are both interesting and challenging. Every military service constantly places you in a new environment, a new job, a new situation. That means you're always learning and adapting if you want to retain your edge. Military careers offer wide-open opportunities for promotion and progressive responsibility, enlisted and officer.
Early promotions are more or less predictable.
However, to be promoted beyond a certain point means your intellectual, moral, and leadership qualities have been recognized. That said, advancement in the military is usually more dependable than in the civilian world. Career military members are also attracted by an impressive array of military benefits, the job security, and the ongoing personal development and education opportunities. There's something else, though, and it's important. Career military members are proud of what they do and of the values they represent.
