Gentlemen,
I have spoken to a few USMC pilots in TBS and they love their job. I am here on an air contract, and need to let them know tomorrow if I will be dropping to ground. I initiated this after expressing an interest to do so based on the length of the commitment that could amount to 10-12 years. I will be married soon, and certainly want to start a family between now at 26 and when I would get out at 39. My question to the USMC aviators is would you do it all again if you could go back? Why did you choose this route as opposed to something like the Army WOCS program where you would fly more? I made sure not to get my heart set on fixed wing since it all depends on needs of the MC. Any advise and experiences would be appreciated.
