Post-high school military joining process?

Heya people, hope you all doing great. I've been pondering about the process, what happens when you join the military after high school? Is there a particular training I'll need to undergo first or there’s something else to the story?

Certainly! The process to join the military after high school involves a series of steps. Here's a brief overview:

1. Contact a Recruiter: First, you will need to contact a recruiter affiliated with whichever branch of the military you're interested in - Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard.

2. Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS): After initial contact with the recruiter, you will visit the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) where you will undergo a thorough physical examination, and take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test which is designed to determine your aptitude for specific career fields within the military.

3. Discuss your Options: Based on your test results and physical examination, you and your military counsellor will discuss the career options available to you depending on what each branch has to offer and what specialization you prefer.

4. Enlistment: This is where you will officially commit to serving a term in the military. You swear in at your local MEPS.

5. Basic Training: After enlisting, you will attend Basic Training, also known as Boot Camp. This introduces you to military life and usually lasts for several weeks, depending on the branch. The training is physically and mentally challenging and is designed to teach you the core skills required for your service.

6. Advanced Individual Training (AIT) or Tech School: After Basic Training, you will attend further training specific to your chosen career field.

Remember, the joining process can vary a bit between the different branches, but this is a general idea of what you can expect. Be sure to talk to a recruiter to get the most accurate information for your situation!
