I was 19 and hated going to college and with no job outlook, it seemed like a good idea at the time. I have been in the USAF for 7.5 years its been a pretty good deal to me. I work in aircraft maintainence and its pretty demanding at times, I think the worse thing right is that we are undermaned and I am deployed pretty much all the time I just got back in June and I am heading back out this week.



Though I am glad that I went into the Air Force, over other branches of the military, I sometimes wish I did quite a bit more research before going into the job that i do.

i joined cause i was dumb. I drove M1Abrams and flew on CH47D helicopters. I got smart and got out, now i work for a civilian company doing the same thing. *IF* you want to go to Iraq or Afghanistan for over half of your enlistment...then by all means, join now.

If you're the kind of guy that can tough it out for the long haul, the gov't takes pretty good care of it's retirees, and you can retire a fairly young man and sell your talents in the private sector. Or you can always sell your privates! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif
