the air force
so i’m pretty sure i’m going to enlist in the air force in a couple of weeks.
it all started when i didn’t have enough money to continue school. i started thinking about my options and realized that an excellent solution would be the air force. it will provide me with a full time job and up to $10000 in payment on my current student loans. on top of that, i can continue my education as an airman with 100% tuition assistance. after finishing my degree, i can apply for officer training school and rise from an enlisted member to an officer (which comes with more pay and better living conditions).
as well as the up front benefits, i will be given free medical, dental, and eye care for me and my family, i will have housing paid for along with a check every month for groceries, and i will have access to all of the military bases’ ammenities including the bx and the commisary. i will be able to go anywhere in the world, finish school, train for a job i really enjoy, and comfortably support the family i’ve always wanted.
i started talking to recruiters about two weeks ago gathering information. i took the asvab today and made a perfect score on it (99’s across the board) which qualifies me for almost every job the air force offers. i am going to take a second qualifying test (the edpt) to try and get into the computer programming and data analysis field.
that is about all the recent info about it. i don’t know when i’ll be getting shipped to basic or what job i’ll have. i’ll keep posting here as more things develop.
