You are the best person to answer your question based on what you want to do. What is your civilian job, and do you want a similar job in the reserves? Have you checked the reserve websites. Have you talked to any recruiters with a list of your questions?

Depends. What are you wanting to get out of your service? What are you wanting to do?

Depends on alot of things. Each Branch has a specialty but most Branches have similair MOS's they provide. Communications, Logistics, Intel, Aviation, Security, various types of Engineering and medical (except the Marine Corps who mooches their medical support from the Navy.). The larger question is what culture works better for you. The culture in the Army is different than the Marines which is different than the Air Force etc etc.

You can most likely find similar MOS's in each branch to perform a comparison but the question you should be asking you if what Culture is better for you because that is what will impact you on a daily basis.

The one that meets your overall goal(s) and objective(s). Certain MOS fields are not offered, and you must understand what you want and go to the Service that fulfills it.

All branches generally have different missions. So, it is impossible to say which is better, assuming your question is about waging war.

The one Your a member of is the best and not all of us are in the same Military occupation. My career was within the US Air Force and I stayed with that rather than starting over with another branch. It's a decision You have to make for Yourself based on what You Yourself want to pursue within Your own Military Career. If I had to do it again I'd still go Air Force but that's My choice and each of us must decide that for our own needs.
