What I didn't know what that even Marine Pilots can serve as ground pounders if needed. And I think that KICKS ASS. I'm 22, married, and have a son. My whole life I've wanted to fly. But recently I've had a really strong desire to go infantry (sniper if I could manage it there later on). The wife isn't thrilled about the military, but she is supportive and knows that's it's all I've ever wanted to do. She is fine with me being a pilot, but really not OK with me doing infantry.
I assume that if I went pilot and ended up doing a tour as a ground pounder, that sniper wouldn't be an option, but that's fine. I would really enjoy doing either and although my wife wouldn't like it, she would accept it if I had to do an infantry tour.
I'm a mathematics major with 1 year left of college so I've got some time to decide. It's a really hard choice. Not because I don't know what I want to do, but because I'll be happy in any way I serve (sans cook or something like that).
