I noticed that we have some EOD people on this board, and thought it'd be a good place for a question. When I was researching careers in the military, I noticed that only Ordnance was listed. Is there any way to request EOD in the contract, or is it luck of the draw? From what I've heard, a lot of Ordnance duties are supply jobs.

When I first enlisted in the Army I chose EOD, my mom freaked out. She absolutely flipped. I changed the MOS to settle her down a bit. I didn't tell her I changed it to 11B1P (airborne) till after I was shipping out. She said Airborne duty to her was preferable to EOD. |
I was 11C1P when I came in, well after basic. Came in as 11X with Airborne option. Decided I wanted to try EOD when I was at Knox after three years in. Didn't make it past the suit test. Mom thought I was nuts for even thinking about it.
