What do you think about enlisting in the Air Force?
Anyone and everyone...
Sorry, I'm asking for someone else I know. Last edited by Jenson71; 05-11-2009 at 02:44 PM.. |

Only time I ever considered it was when a recruiter came into our classroom and told us to enlist right out of high school because it was the college grads that became officers and were sent off to the dangerous spots. We'd be safe guarding some hole in the ground in Wyoming.

Not at the academy to be an officer or pilot. Being enlisted.

Why not do ROTC or OTS?

Winding up the rubber bands was hard work, eh?

Depends on where you get stationed. My best friend was stationed in Bitburg Germany and traveled all over Europe. He loved it - got out, went to college and went back in as an officer. He's a major now. My uncle, OTOH, spent a year and a half in Okinawa and a year and a half at some pisshole missile base in Montana, 60 miles from the nearest town (and the nearest town sucked) and he hated it. I can't say the words "air" and "force" together in a sentence to him without him getting pissed, and he's been out since before I was born. If you go in the Air Force you'll get treated better and have better accomodations than the other branches.
Now, if you go in the Navy, and are assigned to a ship, you'll live in a small room with 100 other guys and have no privacy, but you'll travel all over the world. True, military pay is shit, but if you are smart and STAY SINGLE (trust me on this) with room and board paid it's not that bad. Obviously you should take advantage of the college thing (another mistake I made). You strike me as the sort who would have no trouble with the discipline. As ****ed up as the economy is now, seriously, you could do worse things. Hell, you might even find a career there. |

I've got a cousin in the AF. He went through ROTC in college and is an officer.
He's doing fine as an MP or something, and he was one of the wussies in my family tree. There are AF members on this board who I'd ask if considering. Ask for the good and the bad. |
