Yep, and it's still an all volunteer military so you can choose which one you want to be in...unless you can't meet the minimum Air Force qualifications then you have to join the Army.

Hey it pays the same across the board by rank so why not. granted, I'm in the air base defense/ground combat side of the air force but our deployed locations are definitely more accommodating.

actually I'm promoting early which should (might, cross fingers) put me in an early test cycle so I can be E5 by 3 years. which is the earliest an active duty person can gain E5.

I've met 14 year Chiefs, but they are the extreme minority, and likely not human. Depending on how well you test, most people hang out around Staff and Tech for a good chunk of their career. I've never met, or even heard of, someone making staff in 3 years, it's almost impossible to have enough points, even with a perfect PFE score. Some years are better than others, but I think it's been about a decade since the last Great Staff Giveaway happened. |
