joining the air force, maybe

[tony]

I plan on joining next summer into the reserves and hopefully i'll be able to get a boom operator position, although they dont have an air to air refueling group here in Ga, still not sure about how that will work if it will work at all. im basically doing this so i'll already be in the AF before the cut-off age and then go on to be a pilot. a pilot is a lot of hard work but deff no out of reach. and as far as the flying goes, that wont be a problem considering i am getting my bachelors degree in professional flight. i am also a military brat, my dad was a ATC in the AF and i absolutely loved the atmosphere of the military, but once i get out of college i really dont care where i am stationed as long as i get to fly.

Shoot me a pm or an IM if you ever want to chat about the process.

What date did you go through MEPs?



I honestly cannot wait, I love to travel and being a part of an aircrew is a dream come true. Not to mention applying for pilot will become that much easier since I'll have a good understanding of aircrew operations.. it surely doesn't guarantee me a position but it betters my chances.

i went to MEPS around the end of october. i think it was the 21st
