A Career I would like to pursue following my enlistment with the USMC is becoming a Private Military Contracting. Gunsmithing and weapons dynamics would be a great introduction to this career field.
In todays world there are growing number of threats thats militaries cannot deal with. Private Military Contractors (PMC’s) are a great asset to be used in many situations. PMC’s can be used to protect executives around the world outside of the U.S borders. They can also be used in controversial missions where governments can’t be used in due to politics.
Contractors make a decent living. Entry level pay begins around $600-$1000 a day. Most contractors spend eight weeks on and four weeks off. Those pay periods equal about $150,000-$250,000 a year and even upwards of $450,000 a year for those who served multiple contracts over many years. Contractors lack many of the benefits that military personnel receive though.
PMC’s are mostly discharged military personnel with combat experience. This job is dangerous and rounds will fly. Those in this industry have already tasted combat and are typically special forces guys looking to keep a shooters job for years to come. Also first aid and combat medical skills are a must for this job. When rounds connect with friendly guys keeping them alive and going is a must. especially when protecting a high valued client.
Contractors are in high demand and is a fast growing industry. Oil companies are hiring Contracting companies to defend oil rigs and executives touring facilities. Military contracting is a $200 billion industry and is growing non-stop.
Contracting is a great transition from Military life for me and will be able to provide with plenty of funds to begin a life and possibly support a family. Military contracting is a great career to look forward to.
