> (typically the dumber the job, the greater promotion potential) the army will give you a job in writing, most other services won’t.

actually its usually the better jobs that promote faster because the military does not pay that much so people with the chance to get a high paying civilian jobs get out and leave room for lower ranking people to move up.

and every service will give you a specific school in writing (assuming you score high enought of the asvab) but, the as far as i know the marines are the only ones that will change your job
