I agree with Wisbaker and JDSeller. I work on an installation as a Civilian and the Air Force or Coast Guard would probably be the best choice.
Very few Marines actually stay in and retire after 20 years. Your Son might benefit from the new Retirement rules that will probably be enacted to equalize retirement/cut costs but I've seen very few Marines serve beyond two enlistments. Most of my friends or people that I've known that went USMC got out after the first.
Coast Guard promotes the fastest at least for the case of my best friend. He's been in seven years and is ready to make chief and probably earn a full commission.
Air Force is going through a huge restructuring. They can't afford to replace the planes and keep the old ones fixed. My buddy who got an 86 on his ASVAB went Crew Chief...80s are what gets you into intelligence.
Learning how to navigate the newer weapons systems and programming will give him an edge.
Take it from a guy who had Math Anxiety and has ADD. Your son can learn the math. It might take him a bit, but if I can improve my math skills, he can too.
As much as I'd like to fly for the AF, when I graduate and apply for OTS this coming year, I'm hoping I get intelligence.Lots of fun toys and opportunities to do some really cool stuff.

I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
