Reserves or Air Force Active? My friend is deciding to go Army National Guard and I am deciding to go Air Force Active.
I just want to know the positive aspects and negative aspects of each when compared to one another. I saw Air Force active as a better opportunity for life in the future than something temporary like Army National Guard, known as the "Weekend Warriors".
Do you think that if you had a choice to stay as a civilian than go to army reserves you would stay?
I heard not to go unless you had a choice. Military is something to fall back on when everything else seems to not be an option or not able to work out. I'm going to use the Air Force for the education but my friend is going in for the bonus and everyone else he recruits. will he be able to support himself later even after joining? He is set on life but he seems to be impatient on waiting for life to settle down like all the debt he owes. He has an option of waiting it out and busting his butt to pay it off but hes taking the easy way out.
I just need personal opinions, advice to help my bro out. I think hes just making the wrong decision. Maybe hes doing it for the money? he said its because he wants to do it, the bonus, people he recruits means more money, sets his life up for the future, likes the physical activity. There are a lot of options open for him but hes taking the easy way out in my opinion.
