...guidance!? I really wanted to get Aviation Ordnance, I wanted to work in Aviation, and I wanted to experience life on a flight deck, the LAST job I wanted was HM (Hospital Corpsman) I'm a Nursing Assistant now, and mainly don't want to do it because my father is pushing the medical field on me so bad because "that is all you can do in this economy" But, that is the only job they had available for me, so I took it, and I don't think I'll be bad at it, I absolutely LOVE to help people, it makes me feel good to help people, I'm just sad I'm not going to get to experience life on a flight deck while on deployments, and I see what the nurses do at work ( I work at a nursing home) And it looks so boring! I wanted a job that was exciting, and gave me some adrenalin..but, I have HM, so what is life like as a Hospital Corpsman...which is basically a nurse right??

Like what is a daily day like while on shore duty, and on a ship at sea duty??
By the way, I plan to stay in till I retire out. So this is a long term career.
