US Army reviews

The 20th SUPCOM CBRNE Analaytical and Remediation Activity (CARA) is a relatively recently formed civilian unit - you allegedly get an opportunity to participate in forming the structure of the organization. It is a fully deployable unit, so people who want the opportunity to go on OCONUS missions should consider applying here. Like many Army positions, there is a big emphasis on training, so you will learn some skills. For civilians, it's a good place to get some tactical experience.

If you complete 20 years in the Army it will financially pay off better than the majority of other jobs. It is also a place to find yourself if you feel like you need a little direction in life. Working for the Army is sometimes like a box of chocolates...you never know what you are going to get. This can be good because if you are stuck with a less than capable boss or in a job you don't like, it won't be that way forever. If you are a person who likes variety and new experiences, the Army allows ample opportunities. There is also a sense of pride and accomplishment that is inherent in the job. Many people associate the Army strictly with a "shoot to kill" mentality. However, there is more that lies beneath and many jobs that don't involve shooting or killing--that's not to say that any Soldier will never have to shoot or kill. The Army is a community that provides most jobs that you can find in the "outside world". There is something for just about anyone however, it comes at a price. RECAP - Good retirement benefits - Endless support systems - Job security - Excercise leadership skils; given more responsibility than you might get in the "outside world - You will never go without food, housing, or work
