Hi there,
Thanks for your question. It is great to hear that you want to help people and to make a difference, I think that is why a lot of us join the military.
It sounds like you want to avoid Ground Close Combat, if so that is not a problem as there are lots of different roles available; from being a Nurse or Combat Medical Technician to being an Intelligence Analyst. There are too many options to go through here and without being able to have a conversation with you so I would recommend that you visit a careers office to see what will suit you best. Also have a look at the Army Careers website at the Role Finder function which will show you just what is on offer.

Good luck, and if you have any further questions please feel free to come back to me.
