It is great working for the Air Force if you are single, but family support is lacking.

Pros
The travel opportunities and benefits package offered by the United States Air Force are undeniable. Tuition Assistance for school while you are in, the Post 911 GI Bill for when you get out - Both great ways to get an education. The Air Force is also a vocational school, transfer general education credits from the school of your choice and get an Associates just by doing your job.
Cons
The Air Force would be great if I didn't have a family. While it is great to see the world (a benefit I actually sought) I spent almost 50% of the time at my last duty station deployed. If I didn't have a family or the AF had better family support, this would have been great.
