Army Career Cluster: Military Careers Isabella LaPinta May, 5th 2014 4th hour Career Tech Foundations
Introduction “Members of the U.S. military service train for and perform a variety of tasks in order to maintain the U.S. national defense.” I got interested in the army from my family. Both of my granddads, uncles and my dad were in the military and the story’s they shared with me sound so exciting that it made me want to experience what they did. I also feel like I am being guided towards that career which doesn't bother me, in fact it gets me excited for when I go into it. In order to get a better understanding of my choosing career field in the Army, I will be researching: nature of work, working conditions, training, qualifications, advancements, job outlook, earnings and my backup career.

Summary After researching my career, I do still want to join the army. I don’t like how I have to Participate in, or support, combat and other military operations, such as humanitarian or disaster relief; but its something I will have to do and if it means me going will let someone that was there come home to their family I think I can live with going into combat or other military operations. I'm most excited for either traveling around the world. I learned more about my career is that you only need a high school education to join.
