im going in to the army in oct. and wanted to go 13b, cannon crew member, but whenever i tell someone that they tell me i should go 13f, forward artillery observer. what makes 13f so much greater than 13b? im having a hard time deciding.

13B is the half wit we have sit in a HUGE target and pull the trigger.
13F is the genius that has to do all the math, calculate the charge, plot the grid, adjust the fire, and tell the half wit to pull the trigger. |

Well, if you're a 13F then you could watch your target get blown up. |

13F is better because it involves maneuvering as a forward element with the Infantry, Cav, and Armor or acting independantly as scout teams with other 13Fs. It is better than your regular combat arms jobs because it gets you a security clearance, it requires a slightly higher ASVAB score than most combat arms, and it takes a physical of all 1s. You maneuver and work as a rifleman, but your primary task is to provide target information for your integrated mortars or artillery assets or air support and naval gunfire. You prioritize and acquire targets and direct the appropriate fires on it. It's a blast.
13B is a gun bunny... but you're so far away you'll never see what you blow up. There also isn't much of an artillery mission (esp in Iraq) so you'll get tasked out with BS work a lot of time, or if you're lucky they'll just use you as 11B.
Go FIST (13F). You'll see and direct more explosions than you can imagine. |

a FO doesnt call artillery strikes in iraq, just in stan.
you could call in close air support too.
a 13b you are looking at loading a heavy projectile into a thing that goes boom. its a tough ait.
go 21b and you will blow sh*t up and have more options in the civilian world. combat engineer. its easy, its fun.
in iraq, 13b's have been doing convoys and patrols. its not a war ideal for artillery. |

If you want to blow stuff up then pick 13B. The way it works is that the 13F sees the target, then sends the grid to the 13D. The 13D turns the grid into data and sends it to the 13B. The 13B then shoots the target.
However, it is a little more dangerous for 13F than for a 13B and the 13F might make rank a little faster. |
