I think 2111 is the MOS he is looking for, metal worker/armorer. Thats what it is for us anyways.

me personally im in the marines and i love every second of it, i didnt get the joib i wanted but im still a marine so thats fine by me. like evryone has said though get it all in writing and just because they offer you a choice it means nothing to the military they will put you where they need you unless you have written proof, a signature is yuour best friend. but you can get any job you want with a good adsvab score. i only scored a 59 but got plenty of choices. just my opinion.

Go USAF, it's much better than the Army or marines and can set you up for a better 2nd career after ya get out...

heres a story to maybe change your mind about the air force and what some of our guys do


Afghanistan actions earn airman 2 Silver Stars - Military News, News From Iraq & Afghanistan - Military Times

People do not know/see/hear about the AF being warriors, just plane drivers and a blue suit company....

It's only about 10% of the USAF who are true Warriors, but they are there doing stuff you would never think they would do....

I had a couple troops (Security Forces) do the 1st ever USAF Combat Jump into northern Iraq.....they were attached to the 173rd Airborne.....but were USAF Security Forces troops....
