Taking full advantage of AA would get them to a major faster with less potential for harship anyway.

Excuse me. But i do not thik the military is racist. That was very offensive. I have been inthe military for 18 years. I just returned from Iraq in JUn and I wasnt a jet jock flying over and returning to a nice Air Force base. I am an Infantry Officer. That means a ground combat soldier. I lost 9 persoanl friends oveer there so I am really not interested in your comments about the molitary.
Actually, I encourage people to go into the military to fly ( I promote the AF and the Navy) Its a great career.
