Which branch of the military offers the best officers program?
I am very conflicted as to which branch of the military I’d like to join through OCS. I’m seeking the branch that will have the most options for training, expertise and opportunities. While the Marines are enticing to me because of the rifle training and emphasis on infantry, I want to make sure I would have options to branch out beyond infantry. Would the Marines provide that, or are there more opportunities in the Army or Navy?

While it is commendable that you want to be part of the action, you also need to think about your career after the military. If you are set on infantry type positions you would be best to focus on the Marines or Army.

The Marines are limited as far as the things they have to offer. The Army has more choices. The Air Force and Navy have numerous options as well. I’d look into the Air Force or Navy first, then the Army and lastly the Marines if options are what you are looking for.
