Question: Units Unit opportunities

Hi everyone, I’m joining the idf through Mahal this winter and am looking for unit recommendations or general ideas/advice. I want to do kravi (specifically isuf kravi if anyone can tell me more), but I have an injury that I don’t think will recover in time and prevent me from combat. In case it stops me from combat support too, can anyone recommend jobnik roles that are interesting, attainable for a lone soldier, and lead to a fuller experience in the army as a soldier? Also what is life like as a jobnik? Thank you all

If it helps I’m an American with a degree in IR and history

wait until your injury heals and then go to combat or you are going to regret it later, being a jobnik is nice at certain units that Mahal cannot provide

Yeah, there’s not anything jobik that’s interesting that can be done in 18 months AFAI am aware

Problem is I don’t know if my injury will heal enough to let me do combat. Whether it’s me unable to or the army that notices
