At the end of this year i'll hit the 5 year mark in my military career. Although I do enjoy my MOS I truly doubt i'll continue doing this throughout my military career or even my civilian career once I do decide to get out. In your opinion which MOS do you feel benefits the most when switching from military life to civilian life?

If you can get a 4 year degree 51C will directly get you a Contract Specialist job with any government agency

Honestly bro, there are some MOSs that better translate to civilian careers, but it comes down to the individual. What are your interests and what potential career path or at least industry do you think you'll want to pursue when you get out?

If you want a cush office job after the Army with a security clearance, I suggest Cyber or Intelligence.

I second that. Even entry level contracts for deployment are starting at $75k. If you're 22 and have no degree, that's not bad when it's tax free. The clearance really helps with a lot of other jobs too, depending on your post-service interests.
