I do not mean the stereotype soldier, a member of the army. air force technicians are still soldiers. There's a reason why Air Force is often joked around and referred to as the Chairforce. Like the Navy, the Air Force has little to no fighting or combat unless you are a pilot or a marine/navy seal. Being enlisted in the Air Force you will more than likely spend the better part of your enlistment working on jets or helicopters specializing in a certain part or engine, and making sure equipment is combat ready. Being as the majority of the Air Force are not in combat on a daily basis they aren't as lenient with recruitment. In face, the Air Force is one of the most competitive branches to get into at the moment because of their technical positions and the fact they don't need a bunch of grunts to send into the sand pit. If you are just looking for a paycheck I would suggest talking to recruiters for the Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard. You will be almost guaranteed not to die or end your enlistment with less body parts than you started. | ||

She is definitely super lucky; plenty of people have had really bad experiences as well, although perhaps some of the Korea-located denizens could help him avoid this. I think in general though without a college degree he wouldn't be eligible for many positions. How large is the debt if we may ask? And what stakes do you play--so we can get an idea how long it could take to repay it. | ||

They, along with the marine corps, have the longest promotion waits and lowest sign-on bonuses. I would also HIGHLY recommend army intel. Hell, if you sign on as army intel, they will pay u a 25k enlistment bonus and teach you korean, and then send you to South Korea to interpret radio signals from North Korea. You just have to pass a very basic intelligence test. Check out MOS 35 in army. As long as your a reasonably bright guy who doesn't mind saying "good morning sir" 4034302484 times a day, you'll make a great intel soldier. At least joining to Navy means that there is one less retarded now  | ||

It's really sad to see people having to join the military because there are no jobs. But I guess if you find something useful to do it could be a good experience. I really don't find it shocking you want to become a monk and I think you'll make a good one. Best of luck! | ||

I've had thoughts of joining the military and this line of thought is basically where I ended up. | ||

Less risk than other military jobs, but I wouldn't use the word 'safe' in regards to any military position. Plus, you're still always a number—if you somehow get stationed in the States and they suddenly have a bunch of voids in Iraq, you get to go, even if you didnt sign up for that specific job in that area. | ||
