The reasons that I'm in the Air Force now, and when I joined are pretty different. When I was preparing to come in, I was applying for the Air Force ROTC scholarship. I decided that I wanted to be in, instead of waiting four to six years, and at the time, being in meant that we could get married sooner. Now that I'm in, I've met so many people that I'm proud to know, I work for some really good and hard working NCO's, and I feel good at the end of the day, knowing that I've acomplished something important. When the opportunity presented itself to me to deploy (not our rotation), I jumped at the chance to come over here. I love my job (2e2), I get a month of paid leave a year, all the holidays plus my birthday. That's beside the point though. I'm now in the military because of my family. I do my job because I know that if I do, they'll be safe that night. As much as I care about my friends, and as much as I care about my country, my real motivation is my family. That's the reason I'm in.
Oh, by the way, Viper, when are you testing for staff? From what I've heard, I can test in July [img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img] , and had my waps material sent to me last month.
