Echoing the pulse-racing, high-tech spirit of contemporary military recruitment advertisements, this series reveals the astoundingly wide array of stimulating and rewarding careers available in the Armed Forces. The books detail the specific jobs available within each field, their duties, and the skills that are required and taught. In addition, each book includes information on enlistment, basic and skill training, and personal and professional life after military service. Some of the challenges of military life are also discussed, including the real possibility of combat, deployment, extended separation from family, PTSD, etc. Each of the five services--Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard--are covered through lively, dynamic body text enhanced by sidebars that highlight inspiring Medal of Honor winners.
