Thanks guys this sure has given me a lot to think about!
As far as all the flying talk goes, I kind of figured even if I could get past my physical, it's too late? I mean, I'm 24 (and would not join until i'm 26 [I will have my degree then, and hopefully will have a much much much better financial foundation to start something new]), doesn't the military have nice fresh 18-20 year-olds to fill flight crews with?
Regardless, I still have a year or two to figure out which path would be best for myself (and also for my family). I've begun to start talking more seriously about it with my wife, and she could not be more supportive.
Once again though thanks guys. I really appreciate it. I don't have many people in the office who know the military ins/outs well, and every time I talk to a recruiter, it never goes very well either.
