Crewmen have it hard, we look at them and feel bad for them and they look at us and feel the same way. Ironic.
Top, I am in school with a guy who knows you and has great respect for you. Sgt Martinez, he also remembers the red Hawk and how hard you took it's loss.

what intrests you? every Marines, well, almost every Marine, will tell your their job is best. bla bla bla.. what do you want to do? every job has it's perks. every job has it's pitfalls. The Crash crew guys make have a blast, but their hours suck ***. as do most of the air wingers hours. some of the more ground orientated MOS's you'll get to spend some time humping your pack around for 15+ miles every two weeks.
it really depends on what you want to do. Just make sure it's something you might beable to do when/if you get out. maybe you can find a job that requires a security clearance.. (being you can obtain a clearance.) because the govt will pay for it. and many employers dig that **** when EAS.

I don't know how much more ground you can get than tanks, other than infantry. We don't really do humps all that often, maybe once a year for 'tank appreciation day'. We do however, spend a lot of time in the field training. Good time and great to build a strong bond.

Well of course I like working on car's but I want to be a cop more then anything, alos I would love to get it SWAT. Also what kind of job's are there where you need security clearance?
