I'm a ten year AF vet and though I moved on after ten to get a better paying gig with a military contractor, I enjoyed the hell outta the start they gave me. Anyway, I was a drifting twenty something year old and really found my place in the world via the AF. Met my wife there, had my kids on their dime, and was trained in a career I would've never imagined possible as a poor country boy growing up. My point was that there's opportunity there ... opportunity many can't get in other ways, and it's not all blood and guts ...
