Military Academy
Which Military Academy is best for a career in politics and internal security / foreign relations?
I want to go a military academy. Let's say I cogressional reccomendation supported. My goal is to stay in the military for 10-15 years, then use this experience to build my career in politics. Academy which would be best for me? Why? And if you have any information please Shair.
The United States Military Academy at West Point (New York), produced at least two presidents (Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower), and possibly others. All U.S. military academies are excellent schools, not only for academics and sports, but for intangibles such as leadership and integrity. They are hard to get in and drive to survive, which is as it should. A career in the Marines Army, Navy, Air Force and / or Coast Guard will be very useful in politics. Nobody will question the quality of your education or type of national service that you have made. He will have the right of these issues on the table. If I had to choose one of the academies, it would be the Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. The reason is that the Navy has all kinds of military forces (air, sea and land) and aspiring to learn to deal with tactics, strategy and logistics for all those and more. In a military sense, is a broader education you have in West Point or the Air Force Academy (in Colorado Springs, CO). Remember, the Navy has not only warships, it has many aircraft and Marines. No other force has everything from submarines to aircraft artillery to attack. Good luck!
