What military jobs teach survival skills?

I'm really into learning wilderness skills and was wondering if there are military roles that revolve around teaching or using survival skills? Any specific branches or positions come to mind?

Based on the interest you've shown in wilderness skills, looking at certain roles in the military might indeed be beneficial. There are numerous positions that emphasize survival techniques.

In the Army, one option could be the Combat Survival Sergeant. People in these roles often become experts in survival skills, including sourcing and purifying water, gathering food, and constructing shelter in different environments. They're skilled navigators and also are trained in first aid, mountaineering, concealed movement, and handling captivity.

The Air Force's Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) specialists are extensively trained in survival skills. They focus on survival, evasion/resistance techniques, parachute operations, and water survival, among other skills. Their role is to train others in these skills and to use them themselves if they become isolated during operations.

Members of the Marine Corps' Force Reconnaissance units and the Navy's SEAL units also undergo substantial survival training. In particular, these units focus on adapting to various environments and surviving in harsh conditions, as they may be deployed for reconnaissance, combat, or rescue missions in a variety of geographical and climate conditions.

Remember, any military role will require a commitment to service and likely includes elements beyond just survival training, such as physical fitness, mental resilience, tactical training, and more. Make sure to research thoroughly and consider reaching out to a recruiter for more information. Please note that admittance into these roles often requires passing rigorous tests, both physical and mental.
