HELP!!!

Well, kinda. Anyone who is a member of the group, Art For Fanfiction, has probably seen this:

One of the comments said:

P.S. a part of me now wants to see the 5 other mane 6

To which I replied, "challenge accepted".

With that said, I'm wondering which military branch would be the best fit for each of the other Mane 7

So in your opinion, which branch (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, or Navy) would be the best fit each character (Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Sunset Shimmer, and Twilight Sparkle)?

I'll check out the results and within two weeks, I'll have the pictures drawn and colored.

[Silent Echo]

Applejack marine
Twilight enginer
Fluttershy and Pinkie medics
Sunset Armour
Rarity Logistics

[Quillian Inkheart]

Twilight: Cyber and Electronic Warfare Officer; Army STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Careers

Sunset Shimmer: Marines

Fluttershy: Coast Guard

Applejack: Army or Marines

Rarity: Navy (for the outfits. There's probably a better choice for her.)

Pinkie Pie: Literally any of the choices. I feel she would go where the majority of her friends go, so with this lineup, likely the Marines.

[The Voice in the Water]

Twilight and Sunset - DARPA
Sunset - If not DARPA then the Marines (commissioned officer - she's less front line fighter and more tactical / strategic leadership material)
AJ & Pinkie - Army. Infantry for the former, Armed Forces Recreation Center morale officer fo the latter.
Fluttershy - Army Medical Specialist
Rarity - National Guard

RD looks weird with her hair like that. Sorta reminds of the Nightmare Moon AU in the Season 5 finale.

[Speedy Silverstreak]

AJ: Army
Fluttershy: Coast Guard
Rarity: honestly can't see her doing military
Pinkie: Marines (demolition expert)
Sunset: Air Force
Twilight: Air Force (Nuclear Aircraft Carrier engineer)

But wouldn't an Aircraft Carrier be under the Navy's jurisdiction? Or does the Air Force have mariners that I'm unaware of?

[Deep]

AJ: Army
Twilight: General
Fluttershy: Medic
Pinkie: Artillery
Rarity: Weapons manufacturer

I'd say it's under both control.

I decided to look it up, and this is what I found.
Apparently, at least the US Navy has its own aircraft and aviators specially trained to operate from an aircraft carrier. So, no. Aircraft carriers are, indeed, fully under the Navy's jurisdiction. At least in the US Navy.

After taking a bit to think it over, here's what I believe each of the other Rainbooms would do in a military career.

• Applejack: Army; specifically operating some kind of heavy machinery like a tank or something.
• Fluttershy: Any. I could see her joining any branch and serving as a doctor or nurse, or utilizing her connection with animals.
• Pinkie: Explosives expert in either the Army or the Marines; and would most assuredly have some sprinkles on hand in the event she needs some magical ordinance.
• Rarity: N/A. While I can see her fully supporting the Military's efforts, I can't see her considering it as a career option. At least, not with her canon personality.
• Sunset Shimmer: Marines.
• Twilight 'SciTwi' Sparkle: Some form of engineer; possibly aboard some Nuclear-powered ship or sub.

Aircraft carriers are 100% Naval jurisdiction. Each branch, however, has their own types of aircraft.
This has a list of each branches' current aircraft.
