What do soldiers do in the marine corps?
The Marine Corps is defined as a 'force in readiness' and stands as the first responders to an executive order. Unlike the United States Army, the Marine Corps is geared to be a smaller, lighter, faster attack force. The Marine Corps specializes in amphibious assaults and in conjunction with the United States Navy, provides an unparalleled capability to project power from the sea.The basis for Marine Corps attack strategy is built on the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF). This allows for full dominance of a battle space (air, ground, sea and space) and essentially gives geographical commanders an all inclusive, self-sustaining attack force.In the simplest of terms, the Marine Corps is generally considered an immediate response force, capable of overwhelming the enemy. Whereas the Army, is better suited for engaging in conflict over a longer term, while consuming more resources with more personnel, heavier equipment and wider spectrum of ground combat operations.OR:In a nutshell they: close with, and destroy the enemy, through fire and maneuver.

What MOS should you go for in the Marines?
When seeking a good MOS in the Marine Corps you should take in several considerations. Are you considering a short or career enlistment? Are you looking for action or a job skill to carry over into the civilian world? Do you want to continue your education while in the Marine Corps?It depends...If you ask a Marine what a good MOS is, he'll tell you something in the 0300 series, which is Infantry. Even if he's not in the infantry. They raise Marines to believe they're all infantrymen. Keep in mind that unless you want to be in the Marines until you die you'll need skills which can transition into civilian life after retirement. At eighteen, blowing things up as an Artilleryman may seem the way to go, but your career options will be somewhat limited unless you want to go into law enforcement.Some to keep in mind, especially if you want to work in the Federal government or as a Defense contractor include 0231 - Intelligence Specialist, 0511 - Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Planning Specialist, 0629 - Radio Chief, 0656 - Tactical Network Specialist, 0699 - Communications Chief, 1341 - Engineer Equipment Mechanic, 2841 - Ground Radio Repairman, 4341 - Combat Correspondent, 5711 - Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Defense Specialist, 5974 - Tactical Data Systems Administrator (TDSA), or possibly something in the 60/61/62 Aircraft Maintenance or 63/64 Avionics school.Hope that helps.A quick comment about artilleryIf you want to go out and blow stuff up in your youth, then get a good job in the civilian sector, artillery's not that bad of a way to go--IF you can get crosstrained as a surveyor. All artillery units have them--it's hard to lay a battery without surveyors. Another answer!The best MOS is 0311 baby!! (RIFLEMAN)
