Hi Everyone,
My boyfriend is considering joining either the air force, navy, or marines to become a pilot and i'm a little bit scared because i have practically no knowledge about the military. We're becoming pretty serious and i'm wondering what the level of risk is for this type of job. He told me that the miliary pilots have a lower risk of injury than someone doing another duty such as ground combat, but how much lower is this risk? I'm also wondering what the average time of deployment is and how often he will be deployed. I know he will be joining for a good cause, but I'm sure all of you can understand my concerns. If any of you have any other information to provide me besides the questions that I have asked it would be greatly appreciated.
