    I’m a 42R (Army musician), and I just arrived at my first duty station. In one of my in-processing briefs here, the 11B E6 told us to share our name and MOS. When I said 42R, he asked what that was, and I replied that I play guitar in the band. He was all like, “No way! Dude that is totally badass!!!” Yep, it is pretty challenging to get into the bands (my AIT class was tiny), but definitely worth it. Everyone comes in as an E4, regardless of whether or not you have a degree. Additionally, if you can get into one of the Premier Bands (42S), you go to E6.

      Also an army musician here.
      Giving a heads up to those wondering why 42S become E6. Those positions are symphony level competitive, and musicians of that caliber wouldn't bother with the military when they have way better opportunities elsewhere.
      42R is also hard to get into but your chances of getting in are much higher if you're good. You can also always try again if you dont pass the audition. 42S auditions are sorta like once in a lifetime chances, and you're competing with hundreds of people who are qualified if not overqualified for 42R.
      Also yeah, promotions in 42R are pretty damn competitive

    I'm a 42R with 3 years TIS. You are mostly right about the band; you'll definitely be playing whatever music your unit tasks you with, although heavy metal wouldn't necessarily be off the table. We're the Army's connection to American civilians, so if it has appeal and isn't controversial or too difficult to pull off, you might play any kind of music.
    The only thing I'll say is that promotions can be tough. Because 42R has such high job satisfaction and, like you mentioned, a ton of college-educated enlisted personnel, it can be really hard to go from E4 to E5. That said, you do get to enlist at E4 regardless of your education because of the skill it takes to pass the audition.

    I started my career as a 25m multimedia illustrator. "Computer graphics". I was a professional photographer and wanted that job but there wasn't any slots open for 1 year. The school was at ft meade Maryland. Very nice quiet base close to everything in DC. The training was amazing. But i stopped in the 25v (photographer) course to look around. The equipment was the best in the industry. $30,000 lenses etc. All available for your use. You also learn video. Imagine flying in a helicopter taking video or stills of cool action packed stuff. Just an incredible opportunity for anyone. Great job Chris.

      @@marlonmoncrieffe0728 just so you know. Keep an eye out for the 2 MOSs you wanted. You can reclass into those gigs. As far as i know you can only do the reclass when your current enlistment is up for re-up. But there are many many times the military will have shortages for slots and will allow lateral transfers into the mos. For them its a win for the receiver unit, because they dont have to wait for you to go through basic before they get you in unit. They can pull you into the unit, slot you as mos 00 which means you're waiting for school. So they get a body to help out and then send you to reclass school for the new mos. Also nice for you as you can get idea of unit daily ops so you know what you'll be doing when you get back. Good luck too you. Keep your eye on the end goal. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon. Pace yourself.

    I assume the 46S is a combination of the quebecs and romeos but I did quebec and it wasn't for me just because my unit could have disappeared and the only change that would have happened is the BC and Bn Commanders and SGMs would have been a little sad not seeing a paper with their exercises or initiatives in it. Maybe I just needed a mos with more concrete effect on the mission. One bonus though, for Change of Command ceremonies I showed up 15 minutes before, took photos of the change and then went right back to the office to process them so that's a nice thing.

    Veterinarians go thru most of the classes in college as a doctor does, I heard it is harder to get into veterinarian school that regular medical school. They have phd’s in veterinarian medicine. They have to know pharmacology, how to do surgery, they have to know if the animals lab values are normal, and they have to understand pathophysiology. So, being a vet is no easy job. You have to pass a test and board to get your license. You also have to pass the DEA backround screening to get a license to prescribe medications.
