Default cook to pilot?

Hey guys,
I was a cook in the ARMY for 5.5 years. During the last year of service I delivered for Dominos and payed for my private pilot's license. I then got out and went to college and earned my commercial multi engine and instrument ratings. I still have a year of college left and I am working on my CFI ratings. Do yo think i would have a shot at getting into the ARMY or AIRFORCE as a pilot when I finish my degree? Or the guard or reserve now? I am 27 and will be 28 when I graduate from college. Thanks for the input.

Yes and if you have a year or less of college to go many ANG units will interview you without the degree. Check out:www.baseops.net for starters.

If you are within 12 months of college graduation you can apply now, all you need is a letter from your school listing what classes you need and when they will be offering them.

Go for OTS for your pilot slot.
