Big question I am considering.?
I am doing research and whatnot into the different military forces which I might join. I am considering going into NROTC or if possible, the USNA. My plans consist of either going from NROTC (Through a chemical engineering program) into the USMC in either an Infantry Officer MOS or a CRBN Officer MOS, or going to college for Electrical Engineering, or Mechanical engineering, and going in to the Navy in an EOD Officer MOS. Outside of this, I also have a small nagging feeling in the back of my subconscious that makes me want to fly, so I am also considering going to college for Aerospace Engineering and going through ROTC or OCS and then flight school to be in a pilot MOS in either Unit, presumably for an F-35 or F/A-18E/F role. Another small nagging feeling in the back of my subconscious is having me consider going to college and specializing for an MOS in the Army that would involve working with Artillery...
What are the Pro/Cons for each of these possibilities and which in your eyes would be better?
So far the only answer has been good, but Forgot to mention that I have always loved looking into the navy and navy EOD and that would provide me several years of experience to help not only do, but GET the job that I've had a big nagging feeling on since I was a little kid.
US Navy SEALs.

First, figure out what it is mostly that you want to do. I say mostly because there may be some overlap.
If you want to go Marine, go Marine. It's not easy to get into the Marine Option path either through NROTC or the USNA. It's also not easy to get out of it as a midshipmen.
If you want to go SEALs/EOD, orient yourself in that direction (there's similar work you need to do to get selected for both). Good luck-NROTC gets 17 slots a year for both communities, out of about 1000 midshipmen. Lots of people want to be SEALs/EOD. Very few make it in.
If you want to fly, concentrate on flying. Studying aeronautical engineering makes you no more likely to get an aviation slot than studying mechanical or electrical engineering. And you won't be able to pick what platform you fly in until about a year into Flight School for the Navy. Saying you want to fly jets could get you into a P-8 or C-2 just as easily as it can an F/A-18. You have no control over that right now, and won't for another 5-6 years. Oh, and are you physically qualified to fly? You have no way of knowing that.
You can't do all of these things that you want to-that's life. Research exactly what you have to do for each of these different field/branches, and how hard they are to get (out of all those, I would say the choices from easiest to hardest are Army artillery-not necessarily on active-duty, though- Naval Aviation, Marines, EOD, and SEAL). Carefully weigh out the pros and cons of all of them
You're deciding based on what you want to do and not what you can do.

I think you should pay attention to your 'small nagging feelings,' for they are speaking to you and you can choose to listen or not. As far as flight school or artillery...uhhhhh flight school would definitely give you a skill that you could transfer into the private sector, artillery not so much. You HAVE to think about the future, you know. Haven't you heard all the veterans complaining now because they really don't have marketable skills that can be transferred to the private sector? Pay attention. Get training for something that you can use in the future to have a great carrier. Artillery is only a position that is needed in a military-type position. Flight school can prepare you for many other possibilities in the future.
