OP degrees aren't necessary, I assist a photojournalist for travel assignments and they and most of their colleagues don't have college experience, at least not college experience in formal journalism classes.
Work experience and internships will do so much more for you than a degree in journalism will. Start building a nice portfolio and CV now, that's all an employer will care about.
>>2949473I'm 1/2/3/3, there's a trip on here in the Air Force that does field photography. No combat stuff but somewhere foreign.
I don't know what the policy or copyright practices are for specifically combat photographers, you might not be allowed to publicly show them.
I had a friend in the navy who just photographed navy training exercises, I heard photographing in the military is fun but kind of hard to get into(low volume of openings) and you might be waiting on it for a while.
