Jetjok-
Your comments are fair enough, but I don't think I am that stupid. I have done the research and I wrote that UPT was 2 years. I should have been more direct UPT 1 Year, then depending on what air frame you get, 6 to 10 months more, plus commissioning comes close to 2 years. I am not trying to "diss" military service, I highly respect it and respect any advice regarding military service.
Believe me I know how valuable a UPT slot is, but to say "why would they give a slot to an outsider", most units I have applied to say they hire the most qualified applicant, regardless of their background. Every guard unit seems to be different, but at all the interviews, they always say it is the best deal around, "I would not have done active duty if I knew about the guard."
I know I am offending alot of people by posting some of those comments, so I apoligize in advance. I am just trying to make the best educated decision.
