I am 17 years old, a photographer, and I am going to be a soldier. Is it useful to take photos in the army?

I have been in the army for so many years. I came to be a soldier from the foundation. Any specialty is waiting for the appreciation and support of the leaders. Don't think too well of the army. If you come to the army with the attitude of being a photographer, you will probably regret it.

Photography is generally in the propaganda department (unit), backed by many awards. If you can find a job, there are opportunities in this field. If not, I have never heard of a petty officer majoring in photography (maybe I am ignorant ...)

Of course, the army also needs propaganda, and the army attaches great importance to propaganda, but taking pictures alone can't explain anything, and it needs to be able to write and speak.

Anyway, I came to the army to do a good job. You'd better not come if you want to be a photographer. There is a gap between military work and your ideal. ...

When a recruit can bring a camera, most of them are forced to put it in the storage room, and the daily schedule is very tight, so there is usually no time to take pictures of you. ...
