Wooooo! You struck my area of expertise! The Air Force...your right, some don't have to go over seas OR if they do they are in non-lethal areas doing their job, because the information gets there quicker and with less intelligence hassle if your close to the action without seeing any. As for paying for college, there are many ways to go about this: 1: Reserves/National Guard both pay some, but varies from state to state. 2: AFROTC - The one I'm taking, you can apply for their scholarships which are competitive but you're guaranteed college as long as you maintain grades and physical fitness. 3: Air Force Academy - The hardest and most competitive...process is extremely complex and I won't explain it unless this is really what you want to do. *Note: This one is a stretch since the process should've started your Junior year. 4: Then depending on where you are, they may fund you to go a college specific to your job...and that the benefit will be so great that they see it as a positive investment. Now, remember in number 1, you first have your obligation to serve for the Reserves/National Guard...then you have your obligation to serve after college, you have to serve 4-5 years for every single program listed above (2-5 years for NG/R program, but you want 4 or more so you can have time for college). So, don't do it unless your sure you want to. Also, when your in college, your marked "undeployable" if it is working towards a commission as an Officer. And further on you have to get your Masters, which they also are able to pay for and offers more benefits and bonuses, but at the same cost of obligation...which makes sense they pay you for college, you pay them in work and they pay you for that work. Well I've done enough rambling...any other questions...just ask...and also, if you don't mind telling me what the recruiter said...they tend to sugar coat things...but they can't lie, they can stretch, but no lie.

air force! yay Joanne is in the Air Force!

Dont trust a recruiter, you have to get everything in writing, the governoment does try to screw you over........... atleast according to my cousins in the Army.
