Some members of the military are deployed to other countries or regions to defend U.S. national interests.

Members of the U.S. military service maintain the U.S. national defense. Although some service members work in occupations specific to the military, such as fighter pilots or infantrymen, many work in occupations that also exist in the civilian workplace, such as nurses, doctors, and lawyers. Members serve in the[Army](https://www.goarmy.com/),[Navy](https://www.navy.com/),[Air Force](https://www.airforce.com/),[Space Force](https://www.spaceforce.mil/),[Marine Corps](https://www.marines.com/), or[Coast Guard](https://www.uscg.mil//), or in the Reserve components of these branches, and in the[Air National Guard](https://www.ang.af.mil/)and[Army National Guard](https://www.nationalguard.com/).
