U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Ken Scar, 7th MPAD

It's a job that's more than a job. It's an adventure that also provides 100 percent universal health care and dental - housing benefits - education opportunities - child care - subsidized groceries and burial benefits.
It's the job of being a warrior for America's military.

But is it really just a job with great benefits?

Or is it a social welfare program in camouflage?
