Dox, I was in my late teen's joining the air force a decade or so ago, and I was on this very website doing my research and read through all 110+ pages of the air force recruitment thread on top of later asking and emailing every single person that I could who was ex-air force.
If you want the job bad enough, you do whatever it takes, guess you just want an easy eventual command and some decent $$$. Sorry the world doesn't work that way.
