I am a Navy officer about to transition to the Navy IRR in October 2014. I have a very intense interest in switching gears and becoming a Marine Corps pilot. I know that the Marine Corps is downsizing like no other. I also know that I cannot switch from reserve to active duty. I would have to switch from Navy Reserve to Marine Reserve, then to active duty. I was thinking about going to back to school and getting an aerospace degree and a private pilot's license since I have always loved aviation. I do not care how painful the path will be. I just want to get there.
Does anyone else have any ideas/words of wisdom to offer on this difficult situation?
