I have definitely made up my mind that I am going to Re-enlist....My choices of MOS fields are medical or Admin, since I now have a family. I must leave Combat Arms alone for the rest of my career just out of respect for my daughter which is number 1 and to calm down the fears of my family. I am just basically stuck on which one of these MOS's I should choose. Trust when I say my ASVAB scores are high enough for them. I dont need actual advice just persuasive Info on each MOS. Those of you who have experience ONLY please... again... I stress the word EXPERIENCE.... I am prior service once again and I need no statements on the Military, The Army in general, or Personal Opinion... Thank you all...
All Disrespect will be reported... including Ranting, not answering the question, or Insults....

If you are looking to stay out of combat do not go 68W, which is a combat medic, being prior service I'm sure you already know that they are often deployed with combat units, and march right along with them wherever they go. Even seemingly "safe" jobs like a radiology tech are sometimes very close to "front lines" taking pictures to send back to a level 3 facility (a Combat Support Hospital) If your ASVAB scores are so high you might think about going to Nursing school. Uncle Sam will pay, you will still be active duty, and you will have a better shot at being a little further back from the action. However, in today's theater there really is no "safe" MOS. However, with a nursing degree you will have a very marketable job when you retire. Talk to your retention officer. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your service.
