As a AFRes squadron ops officer, I sent 2 LMs to UPT. All worked hard at being a load and getting uni done. One is a UPS FO, the other a senior ART. I also had a pilot that came up thru ms to be an FE, then did college and UPT. Tough, but doable, he's a DL 767 captain. All will get good retirements, too.
