I agree with the pervious post - The military has excellent benefits as far as school and training. My 5 year contract with the Army is over in 2 weeks. The benefits added up is a total of 8 years paid in local and federal benefits. I am starting my flight training in January using the post 9/11 GI Bill I pay nothing out of pocket because I am training through a community college working for a AAS Degree. I plan on Transfering to a University to finish up the bachelor's degree. Many have made it clear that a Aviation Degree is a waste but I have nothing to lose. What the worst that can happen? I dont find a Job? I have 4 years extra to work towards a different degree.
Congrats on the son being born
