Im currently doing ROTC and i know everyone says Cadets are bitches but hey whatever. I personally would love to enlist and get those experiences but how could i pass up free college at an expensive ass school to be an Aerospace Engineer, and then get paid to do it. not to mention i come out as a 2nd LT in the United States Army. Anyways im a huge military buff all around so i give props to anyone who has the courage to go military in any branch. BTW I still get to go to schools like Airborne, Mountain, Sapper, Air Assault, etc etc.

what exactly is a sapper?

my dad has been in AF for almost 20 years flying (was out, went back in cuz airline industry is so crappy, now flys reserves) im currently in the process of applying for AFROTC scholarship- seems you've chosen army so i cant convince you otherwise ; ).
its all good stuff with great benefits ive been an brat my whole life and love every aspect of it- one of the guys my dad flys with has two sons in the TX Air Guard and both got 10k plus signing bonuses, plus get paid to drill etc. you really can't go wrong

side note to 6g94celica-what kind of questions did they ask in your interview- Ive got an ALO (Liasion officer) that is supposed to be contacting me soon and i want to be ready- kind of freakin out

Hey man sorry i ddin't get back to you right away, but it for the army it was real simple, just the basic stuff and security check. AF may be more strict i know they are alot more mental based than the army so im not real sure.
