  1. Dude, go Infantry, Excel and become a Ranger. Or go marines, Excel and become Force Recon. Don't settle being basic in any branch.
  2. Depends what really interests you- DHS is pretty big. You say school- are you going through ROTC or planning on enlisting? If you're in ROTC your branch choice isn't guaranteed, but no matter what you pick you'll get some good experience and leadership training. The MPs will give you the police training Infantry will give you some leader training but from what I've seen it doesn't always translate as well to the private sector. Military intelligence has great crossover to those, but it's hard to get into. You may have to do a 2-year "branch detail" with someone like the chemical corps, but you'll be in MI from then on out. Civil affairs branch may have some interesting stuff as well, depending on your interests. They deal with the local populations and stuff- may translate well to government-civil sector interaction jobs. http://www.goarmy.com/RotcViewCareers.do
