I have a bachelor's degree and am on track to receive my Juris Doctorate (law degree) in 2 years. The hope is to become a Navy Officer for 4 years and receive top clearance, and eventually work my way up as a government lawyer.

Bravo Zulu to LT Gannon! I'd serve with him any time! HOOYAH!

So far I'm trying to learn more of the Navy and it's really becoming of interest to me...but I still want to learn of the Marine Corps. In my opinion serving in any branch would be honorable but I want to serve in something that suits my interests. Personally, and currently, I have two friends in the Marines and one in the Navy, and two classmates that might be going to the Air Force once we graduate on June 1st. So it's a tough choice.

I’m an English citizen living in the US under a green card and my goal is to get US Citizenship and become a naval officer

So I have been looking into the SWO/N route through the NUPOC, but I hear that SWO lifer is really hard. People have told me that SWO's will look back on OCS as the "easy part"... Can anyone comment on this??

Thanks!

Proud Navy veteran - but I just still can't grasp the damned camo pattern working uniform <giggle>. I come from the days of khakis and dungarees.

@JROTCCG09 i'm glad you understand my thinking :D i'll be happy either way!

The military should try to be super honest as a recruiting strategy.

I'm curious to know if you could study a medical career while having a job like this? Vet medicine, pathology, anything

@MusicProness901 SEALs and all Special Warfare officer slots are generally promoted up from the enlisted ranks. Most SEALs have college degrees even if enlisted, so you should really start enlisted if you want it. Army is the best if you want a Special Warfare billet, because they have many more.

In the civilian world, what a former special warfare officer do?

[scottferris]

This video makes absolutely no sense.  If you are already have your SWO pin and are a Lieutenant, then why on earth do you want to leave the Navy and become a firefighter?  If you are an O3, then you are probably already a department head.  Your next step is executive officer.  Why throw away all the time and effort you have spent to get to where you are now and start all over again as a firefighter?  Dumb, dumb, dumb.
