Hey guys,
I know i've got a couple months till i ship out, and even longer before i even have to decide this, but i'm trying to decide which specialty i should choose in SF, either Communications Sergeant, or Weapons Sergeant..
I'm really good with computers and networking, especially wireless, which is why i'm interested in comm sgt, i'd get to do lots of computer stuff, and have some really good job training if i ever decided to go civ, but weapons sergeant would be more fun it seems.
If i become a comm sgt will i just be a radio monkey with a big radio strapped to my back all the time, or will it be better than that? Like i saw a thing on landwarrior where they have laptops on them, and really advanced communications equipment.
Could any of you comm or weapons sergeants out there describe what it's like to do that kind of stuff? I know that i'm going to have to train in 2 specialties anyway, so in the end, it really doesn't matter, but thanks for the help guys.
