I always wanted to be in the military. I think it is a great oppertunity to serve my Country and fly. Its the best training in the world too. I know that there is more than flying the plane. The commander has to make many other important and intellgent decisions.
What about the coast gaurd? They got awesome planes and you stay in the US most of the time. Do you chose if you fly fix wing or helicopters. Or is it that only officers for a while get the fix wing jobs in the USCG? I love their helicopters see them everyday in Miami.
The USAF gives you FAA ratings? If they do I never knew this.
