question for navy and raaf pilots

gday.
at the end of the year after i finish my maths and physics i am applying for a position as a pilot in the defence force.
the recruiters tell me that you nominate by writing a 1,2 and 3 in boxes to nominate which services you want to be considered for. i was interested to know from pilots in the navy and raaf what their job is like as i am interested in both services. flying fast jets or maritime patrol would be great, more than great but i would also like to know what it is like to land helicopters on the back of a rolling deck in bad weather in little or no light. `if anyone could give me their experiences or pros and cons for their flying jobs in both services it would be great. i have freinds flying hornets and FAC pC-9s and i would like to know how to get in touch with some navy pilots to talk to them about their amazing jobs.
in the end i just want to fly.
cheers
