Life What do you think about enlisting in the Air Force?

Bump..
Jenson, did you end up joining the Air Force?

I've been looking diligently into joining either the Navy or Air Force. I'm tired of what I'm doing-- my job is of little consequence, and I'm really wanting a military field that can lead to future success. From what I can tell, I'd really like to pursue the Intel/Cryptology duties. I really wanted to go Navy, as I could be an Information Warfare Officer (I have my degree), and hopefully attend DLI. But, the problem is, I'm 26 and married, and most seem to think the Air Force is the closest thing to resembling a normal family life (and, yes, I'm prepared to travel).

So, some feedback: I'd really like to do cryptology (not the fancy, mythological novel stuff), language, and intel. The post-military job fields are incredibly lucrative, and I can combine that with my current tech certifications.

Ari, did you enjoy DLI?
Jenson, are you liking the Air Force?
Any thoughts on my joining either branch?
