I deployed to Italy 3 times, stayed in a 5 star hotel, got $80 a day in per diem and a free rental car. Air Force gets by far the most money from the government so Air Force folks have the best facilities and are treated the best.

The Air Force is kind of picky about who they hire and keep. They prefer collage grads in good physical shape even for the enlisted positions for good reason. The trade off. Maybe you could do just as well or better in the civilian world if you have a STEM degree. Note: Less than 15% manage to climb to the 20-yr military retirement platform.

@@77space-vt8wi Correct, the Air Force has the highest standards because they treat you the best. Most people join other branches because they couldn't meet the AF standards for enlistment. When I joined all you needed was a GED, no college, and that hasn't changed in 2024. If you meet all the requirements they'll let you join. It's black and white, you either qualify or you don't. College degrees don't determine if you can join the AF or not. Unless you have at least a BA most people won't do as well in the private sector compared to the AF. My son's been in the AF for 3 years. He makes $62,300 a year or over $30 an hour, he has full medical and full dental for 100 kids if he chooses to have that many, and the job security is the nearly the best in the country.

I joined the AF in 1963, probably many decades before you were born. Interestingly, I would agree with the majority of your assessment on the various services. I spent 20 years in the AF working in signal intelligence. Many of my assignments were at locations that did not even have airfields. I traveled extensively, and ended up in locations most people never heard of. I also did several assignments with Army, Navy and on occasion Marines on their bases/facilities that did the same type of intelligence work. I thank my lucky stars that I chose the AF. While in the AF, I obtained an Associate of Science degree from the Community College of the AF (a great opportunity and benefit). After 20 years in the AF and retiring 37 years ago I went to get a BSEE and an MBA using my GI benefits. What I've learned in my life is that there will be buttholes in the military and civilian life as well. Ignore them and press on. If they are you superior in the military, just do what you have to do to stay out of trouble. Eventually either you or the other person will move on and the problem is gone. In the civilian world, there are usually opportunities elsewhere. My take on the military branches goes like this; the Army and Navy are administered as you would expect most traditional military organizations to be, the Marine Corps is more like a cult, and the AF is run more like a corporation. I'm not sure what to make of the Coasties. Never had much contact with them. I do know that in times of war they become part of the Navy. In fact maybe they are now and no longer part of the Treasury Department?

Air Force takes top honors for living conditions. On a deployment with two Air Force guys, 82 Marines and Sailors stayed in lare double wall tents in Tamp during the summer. The AC units they used were so good you had to use an extended cold weather sleeping system to survive the cold. The Marines and Sailors were pretty happy with that. The two Air Force guys had one of those tents to themselves, and were given hardship duty pay for that. Had those been GP tents I would not have been surprised, but we got great tents to stay in during the job project.

My friend was a Load Master on an AF C-130 and flew to Italy, Spain and other places that people actually WANT to go. Army pilots are lucky to catch a ride in the back of a 2 1/2 ton truck from the flight line. The Air Force has crew busses. The AF treats their aviators like royalty. The Army, not so much.

Your assessment reminds me yrs ago when I was still in the Army and decided to change over to the Coast Guard. Sitting in MEPS listening to these kids oorahing and hooahing and talking about how badass they were going to be for their chosen branch. There I was sitting there with my “Hi I’m joining the Coast Guard” sticker badge, the only one that day as it were. Well these kids eventually saw my sticker and unsurprisingly started to berate this choice of branch as I’m sure most could imagine. At the time I was 6 months out from ETS from the Army and assigned in Spec Ops. I was former Infantry with so many identifiers I lost count. Anyways, I said nothing, just reached into my wallet and presented them with my ID card that showed I was a NCO in the Army. After they realized I then asked them “ Now what should that tell you?” They sat down and stayed quiet the rest of time in that room.

Mik Ayala not so much that, since a lot of people aren't even thinking about "quality of life" or transferable skills. I think a lot of people join the army simply because they don't know enough about the other branches (and there still isn't a whole lot of crowdsourced clear detail put in perspective about them) and that the army is the easiest and fastest to join due to it having the lowest enlistment standards (a lot of people wanted to join in a hurry and couldn't qualify for the other branches anyway)

A pretty good video overall. My background was as a Marine Infantry GySgt. Now retired. My list included earning dress blues, my DI cover, and seeing combat and did all three. A couple of observations though; First, no one goes right into any of the branch's special ops (and yes each has them, to some degree) you go in to a field, then are screened and if you make it past screening, you go to school. I'd say most of the ops schools have around an 80 to 85% FAIL rate. Second, a lot of recruiters don't tell you, but they guarantee you the school not the job. It's up to you to pass it. If you fail your school, you're not out of your contract, but you may end up learning how to cook for four years. Now in the Navy and Marines (not sure about Army or Air Force) the Marines have what is called B billets, and I think the Navy calls it Neutral and Shore Duty. My two B billets were the Navy Base Rota, Spain, and four years at the Navy Air Station in Bermuda (now closed) While doing those various duties I was able to get a lot of education in as both bases had University of Maryland and City College of Chicago. Overall, my recommendations to youngsters I talk to are 1) Navy, see the world, get a solid job skill, never see front line combat (except for special ops, or those MOST AWESOME Navy Corpsmen assigned to the USMC) 2) Air Force, great everything but limited travel for most, kind of like being a civilian in a lot of ways 3. Marines, I spent over 16 out of 21 years overseas so did some traveling. 4. Army. Similar in many ways to Marines job wise but limited overseas bases to get stationed. As a whole, I would not recommend the Marines unless I personally know you, because even though the retention rate has gotten better I still hate to see youngsters fail. Hope this helps some.

I'd imagine that in Air Force you'd probably have more time for family since your deployments would be shorter (at most six months compared to at least nine months in Army) and you would't have to go to the field as often (if at all) and if you do go to the field you probably wouldn't be staying in the woods for as long (I doubt most Air Force people who go to the field would have to stay there for at least half a month at a time like Army soldiers do). So the Air Force might be a good choice. You just have to get past the recruiter. Of course you can always do guard or reserves if you don't want to do active duty. Keep in mind that if you do Army guard/reserves, you would still deploy for the same length of time as active duty Army (again, at least nine months). You probably know all this already though. Good luck.

I served 8 years in the Marines and had the great pleasure of working directly with the Navy, Army and Airforce. I was in a Unit called ANGLICO and had some good living conditions and some terrible living "holes". I got stay on ship for 3 months (tight!) and got to stay in Air Force Barracks. I did 4 deployments between 2008 - 2014 and I got to visit 13 different countries working with some awesome foreign militaries. For anyone who is trying to decide which branch to join. I would recommend asking people that served and research the specific job you are wanting. Its not an easy choice but tyipcally after your first enlistment you have the ability to change jobs or sometimes branches. Just remember that every branch has to do Bootcamp again unless you join the Marines first.

The Coast Guard, still a well kept secret hiding in plain sight. So many from other branches re-enlisting in the Coast Guard (If they can, it's much like getting into a good college). So what does that tell you? Maybe they get it right the second time? Even so, it's not for everybody! Having been in the CG, better you get your CG info from someone who has been in the CG. I enlisted 40 yrs ago. From the looks of KZitem videos, basic training is much easier now (Co-Ed, 8 weeks instead of 12, and more PC). But I suspect the job is harder, now that they have gone from DOT/DD to Homeland Security (Add that to what they were already doing). Salute to this channel, some don't even mention the Coast Guard.

Clarification for the Coast Guard regarding the travel opportunity section. There are opportunities to volunteer for Middle Eastern billets and the potential for European billets; however, the chances of getting a European billet are low and if you're joining the CG, you most likely won't be seeking a Middle Eastern billet. All the other branches most definitely still have more traveling opportunities.

On average I moved every 2.5 years. I went TDY to many other states and countries. I earned three associate degrees, one of which (avionics) opened the doors to good paying jobs after retiring from the AF.
