Hey all,
I don't have any access to military mentor's right now. On a remote base and I really am dying for a brain to pick. And I'm hoping with how versatile this forum is, there will be someone here to offer insight.
I'm currently in 4th year of enlistment in the Air Force. I have an opportunity for retraining next year and I'm seriously torn between:
1. Combat Control Team
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Sta...ntrol_Team
2. Air Force Office of Special Investigations
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Sta...stigations
3. Special Instruments
https://www.airforce.com/careers/detail/...specialist
All three have huge travel advantages. CCT and SI both sending you all over the planet. CCT to where there is war and Spec Instruments to just where ever, including Antartica. AFOSI, you can just pick and volunteer for whatever base and do sweet gigs like provide guard for generals.
Other than that, I know that CCT will by far-and-away provide the most adventure, challenge, and fulfillment. I lust for all three, but the washout rate is a stunning 85%, and there's the high chance of death...but I get to be apart of an elite brotherhood and be apart of the fight in a way few ever will.
AFOSI will provide extreme career opportunity for when I get out, I know that. It will give me a nice easy way into the FBI, Marshal, CIA, all those three letter agencies.
And then there's the nerdy career option: Special Instruments. It's the easiest of all of them, a lot of travel, sounds easy, but from what I hear you can really get fucked into a computer desk job for a decade.
Anyone got experience in any of these? I have a year to decide, but I really want to start getting shit rollin in one direction.
