Pros

You get the pride of knowing that you are a small percentage of the population that is trusted with the ability and training to do both terrible and great things in all corners of the globe.

Cons

You can find yourself restricted in the places you can live and jobs you can do especially as a rated flyer. Some really great opportunities have passed me by simply because the Air Force hadn't gotten its number of combat flying years out of me.

Pros

Getting 2.5days of accrued leave per month is nice, which adds up over time. You can request leave whenever within your schedule and it won't be denied.

Cons

Not too much structure when it comes to squadron training. Depends on your squadron but leadership can really determine your experience.
