Hehehe, Air Force Auxilliary- CAP! I'm assuming Junior member, and not a licensed pilot or senior member in an administrative position.

USAF, 474th TFW, 430th TFS, Nellis AFB, Nevada plus a few overseas TDY's during the 70's.
AFSC was 32172P WCS tech, F-4D Phantom II fighters "Bent-wing Bug Suckers".
Secondary AFSC was 81130 Security Police.
"Did you know you could cook a TV dinner from frozen in just a few seconds with the attack radar? Just use Back Bias or Heavy Clutter setting and make sure the CW transmitter is on."
(valuable information told to me by my trainer Sgt. Striefeld, fairly early in the morning, the very first day on the flight line)

I used to want to go into the military.
However, I came to find out I'm medically incapable of doing that.
Too many medical problems after all.
However, I've had 3 uncles and a cousin in the military.
They all came home safe thankfully.
2 of my uncles were in Germany (one of whom worked in Intelligence), my other uncle was in Vietnam and my cousin was a Marine in Iraq.

Hey, Assbutt
So you're saying Haiti was an inside job?
Myself, I applied for the RAF for engineering, but decided that I didn't want to commit 7 years of my life. Besides, I can already use duct tape and zipties.
I was intrigued about recon or something like that in the army, cos I used to be able to move damn fast and quietly when I needed to (Hide and seek champion. I could nearly always get back to home base without being seen.). But, fuck that shit.
Grandad was in the Navy though, stationed on a sub in WW2. Awesome.

Nah, I was a part of the Quick Fix team. We had stuff going to Haiti quite literally right after it happened.
I had no sleep that first week.

Hello
Now I know what the other countries' soliders are doing.
I am proud in my army that is not like others.

I took the ASVAB in high school. Does that count?
Oh, as for going into the military to go into space? Possible, but unlikely, if you go Air Force. Forget joining NASA's astronaut corp, tho. They're getting out of the manned spaceflight business. They're now tasked with planting flowers, hugging trees and singing songs about how wonderful the Earth is and how horrible humanity is for fucking it all up.
If you want to kick it in orbit, get a business degree and make a $million times 30 or so. That's how the cool kids are doing it these days.

Huh. Hadn't thought of that. Still, it sounds like the future of spaceflight will be in the commercial sector, not the government.
