Welcome to the forum

First of all, welcome GreggK to the group and I wish you well in your military endeavors. Now about that Fire Support Specialist job. Hmm where shall I begin? First, never believe everything your recruiter tells you. Second, consider the job description.

A Fire Support Specialist is a member of the Army’s field artillery team. Artillery are weapons that fire large ammunition or missiles to support infantry and tank units in combat. The Fire Support Specialist is primarily responsible for leading, supervising or serving in intelligence activities such as target processing, division artillery and maneuver brigade.

The key words are "serving in intelligence activities". By definition, inetll calls for you to be up close and personal with the enemy without being detected yourself. If your good at it, you'll be OK. You will get the training you need to do the job. To excel at it is up to you.
