And the Air Force really does (or did) take care of its people.

I got wait listed for JAG and took another job. I had that job for a few months when the JAG slot opened up but by then I felt committed to the people I was working with (still am) so I didn't take it.
I'm not sure if I regret it or not. Like you've said, the USAF seems to destroy pretty much every other branch of service when it comes to how they take care of their own. I'd be sitting at Major right now which would be a pretty sweet gig but I'd also be looking at getting moved every 3 years or so. Getting stuck in Minot or Canon sure sounds shitty and I'm sure my wife wouldn't have bothered with her masters or anything. All told, I think I made the right call but there are definitely times I wonder.
