Good input from everyone. Here's my take on it and what 12 years of rated (Navigator) USAF experience has taught me. 1) You make your own career 2) Timing is EVERYTHING 3) It's not what you know but who 4) There are costs involved with everything you do. Army- Bases suck, they don't get top billing for Federal funding. Future jobs involve flying for a local TV station getting Barney or Susan to the "2-car pileup on I-5" Navy- Ever want to get married? 6 months on a ship. Cool time flying for 1.5-3.0 hours at a time and cool to hang with your buds, but... USAF- Good bases, newer jets, Airlines love you, can rack up some serious hours in the heavies. Regardless of your decision, fly jets with ANYONE. They're/we're hurting. Best of luck
