The Weirdest, Dirtiest And Wildest Jobs In The Military

Infantryman

Infantrymen are the backbone of the army. They are responsible for defending any threats by land, as well as capturing, destroying and repelling enemy ground forces. When they are out on a mission, they have to trek through whatever natural or man- made obstacles that present themselves, whether it be swamps, torrential downpours, deep mud pits, dead bodies, etc.. They patrol areas for security risks, or seek out enemy combatants. They have to engage in close range combat with the enemy, and usually suffer the greatest number of casualties during a war.
