Honest thoughts on Army Mi?

Hello I’m currently in the class of 2026 and thinking of joining the military and have whittled my 2 choices to the Army and Air Force. NROTC can kick rocks.

I have an inclination to Intel because of my love of foreign policy and languages and I’ve heard mixed things on army intel as an officer with people saying that all they get to do is sit in a basement and be the key guy and just get shit on which does not sound fun but I don’t know if this is true. I just want the opportunity to do the job and to do things that are meaningful, interesting, and allow me to travel.

AF Intel sounds like a great fucking time plus they commission into a lot of other jobs as well but army sounds more appealing to me because I am more fascinated on reading and seeing what’s happening on the ground vs 30,000 FT in the sky.

If any officer here was or knows people that had a chance to serve in this capacity I would greatly appreciate your insights. I hope this does not sound immature.
