Question for the military rotor guys...

Sorry if this is a bit off toppic but can anyone offer some advice?

Short background:
Im 18, just compelted my PPL(H) and really really want to fly turbine helicopters in the most challenging and difficult situations possible, quite simply because I like a challenge and enjoy scaring the out of myself.....I could take out an enormous loan and pay for the CPL stuff myself but then I wouldnt have much experience, no turbine time etc...

Now logically going into one of the services would provide adventure, challenge and the awsome flying that im after, but....which service does the most challenging and varied rotory flying?

And is it wrong that the only reason I want to join the services is because I want to fly helicopters and not because I want to fight for my country etc?

Any comments or advice anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

N.B....This is not an argument about which one of the services is the "best"...you all do a great job and wouldnt really work without each other!
