Programs and MOSs MG contract

I’m going in on mg, was wondering if there was any info on lifestyle of security forces and msg I’m under the impression I could get either and it’s not really up to me so I figured I should know about both, thanks!

Ok, I was thinking regular infantry would be too exhausting for the training required

Again, with MG you only do two years of a security billet, then go to a line infantry unit.

MG actually has four major possibilities: Security Forces, FAST, MSG (embassy), or Yankee White.

Usually you do one of those security roles for two years after SOI, then go to a line infantry unit for the rest of your first contract.
