Tankies or gunners it doesn't matter, both are inferior to the Infantry... you're just in denial
If you guys could go back in time and again had the choice of joining any of armed forces branches of your countries, which would it be and which role?
Dad was Cav. I might and have often thought that the coolest combined arms element in our army was an armored cav troop (company sized for you Brits). Bradleys with dismounts, M1s and mortars all at your fingertips and at 35kph across open ground.

Nobody more popular in a rifle platoon or tank company. All the smokes and pogey-bait galore so long as he's the man with the plan for that groovy on-call, all-weather, 24/7, wrath of Thor!
Done well and you can shoot from your cot or hammock.
Good land-line or radio w/batteries, binos, grease pencil, compass, map, peanuts, soda-pop and some lovely lines-of-sight always make for an enjoyable day.
...Oh! And some bullets to shoot and targets to shoot them at...
Yup. Life's good in the arty.
