For both branches your training is completely paid for. When a member of the military is enlisted they are guaranteed specific training. Any training outside of the military will cost money, depending on the type of training.
All branches of the military are paid the same base pay depending on your rank/ rate. The rating/ or MOS that you are enlisted under decides what you will get paid. For example, if you are out in combat you will get significantly more than a basic mechanic. The reason for this is because you will get awarded special duty pay.
The length of time of the training will depend on what job you choose in the military. For both branches the average training time is about 5-13 weeks. If you are doing a specialty job then your training time will, in turn, increase. For example, if you were enlisted as a SEAL or a Ranger then your training would take 1-2 years.
NAVY Could be on a ship for upwards of six months. Dirty work if you’re a mechanic Risk of death is moderate/ low, but possible. Told what to do Very structured ARMY Risk of death is high Out in the dirt frequently Told what to do May see others die Very structured
I believe that Navy Enlisted is the best choice for me. I want to serve and fight for my country, but I do not want to do something that everyone can do. If I plan on serving 20+ years in the service, I would like to be apart of, what is my opinion of, the best team in the military.
