I guess I‘m batting for the artillery...

As a gunner, I‘d say you‘ll get trained on maybe 60 to 75% of what the infanteers are trained on.  Not to the same extent naturally, but you will get familiarization training at the minimum.

On top of that you‘ll also learn all about the guns, or depending on which regiment you apply to, the 84mm mortars.

Hey baskin...I‘m in the arty its not as hard as you think man.  If your in a medium battery (155mm 100pound shells)  dont worry they‘ll teach you ways of gettin that round up the spout and down range. I know I‘m just a little guy myself.  I loaded and fired 16 consecutive rounds no problem.  PT helps you as well Basic will help you get ready for things to come.

The mortar is 81mm. The only weapon we have in 84mm is the Carl Gustav.
Study of conspiracism

The central belief of every moron is that he is the victim of a mysterious conspiracy against his common rights and true deserts. He ascribes all his failure to get on in the world, all of his congenital incapacity and damfoolishness, to the machinations of werewolves assembled in Wall Street, or some other such den of infamy.
