    Default Ordnance Officer

    Do you have to have a certain bachelors degree to be an ordnance officer or can it be any bachelors degree?

    No. Strictly speaking, you need no particular degree to serve as an officer in any particular branch. Of course, I recommend playing to your strengths. If you don't have any interest in maintenance and support activities, then Ordnance is not your best choice. Check out www.branchorientation.com

    EOD is a very small part of what Ordnance branch does, and they don't need many officers. I think North Carolina has an EOD unit, but be careful about making career plans with such a small field.

    I should consider the Army Reserve instead?
