if you don't have to make top dollar to pay off school loans, I think this is a great option for you
I keep going back and forth on it and won't start process until I'm 100% committed
you can always say no
i say start the process ASAP
Im prepared to go 3 application cycles
as I said, I turned down 2 commissions
Did you end up flying?
no
and now Im too old
Assessment?
i waiver on it
i would have had to commit 11 years to looking at the guy doing the job i wanted to do
I was trying to join in the late 2000s under the obama downsizing the military pressures
If you aren't going to be your best - find where u can
I didn't go to an academy
there were very limited aviator seats
they really wanted me to go nuke, but I have no interest getting on a boat designed to sink
sometimes i wonder if I made the right decision, but then i look at our bullshit missions over in the ME and am glad I'm not fighting for zog
what you're looking at is totally different
Yeah 2000-today - yikes
you'd actually be serving the country
Well you become a DHS LEO basically
Which fits into what i do now
(I do defense)
Thanks for the encouragement
I haven't set a high goal for myself in a few years
I've got plenty of T left, I need to go get this
is this the direct commission program?
Yes
looks like there's not a lot of spots available each year, I'd look into this ASAP
6 per selection
2 selections per year
yea that's what I saw
Some goy on the forums actually put me on to this
I need to commit
do it man
start the process
you arent committed till you sign papers at the end of the process
officer life is pretty comfy
