Hello, I'd like to get some perspective from some miltary guys about enlisitng in the guard. I'm 19 years old and I'm working on getting my civilian certificates and ratings; including CFI/II. I'll have an associate's degree in one year. I'm considering joining an ANG unit as an enlisted member for three basic reasons:
1) I want to serve in the military
2) I want the college benefits accompanied by enlistment
3) I'd like to make contacts with pilots in a given unit and possibly get commisioned as a pilot once I get a bachelor's degree.
My reasons for enlisting are prioritized in the above order.
I'm considering a particular unit, the 104FW in MASS for two basic reasons:
1) MA has the best education benefits and enlistment bonuses
2) the 104th flies A-10's, my favorite airplane.
I should also mention my eyesight is 20/100. Other than that, my health is fine as far as an FAA Class I is concerned.
So can I get some opinions on my plans?
Respectfully
TE
