hi guy,
i,ve been in the rearcrew game for 33yrs and have been fortunate to have served in the sh ,sar ,and aeop roles and its been fantastic, there is no comparison , in any fashion, to civilian experiences u will see and undertake operations that make hollywood seem like ballamoray, i kid u not...........BUT THERE IS A PRICE TO PAY, often that is a relationship issue because the nature of what is required demands a certain amount of dedication , i dont think your age is too much of an issue , but you are more likely to be nearer 40 before u r even looked at for a sar pre-select,in the present climate thats just about a fact ( thats taking in all your course time .....2 fl tours, aacmt etc,).sounds like tho you have doubts already ,this particular post perhaps,anyway guy i would go for it ( the sand crap wont last forever,i hope) and worth remembering maybe the gf will commit as much to both your futures.see u on an ocu
