[QUOTE="bunk22, post: 9668767, member: 7921"] The OP asked about either pilot or intel which I believe is probably a bit different than ground pounders. Different communities have different lifestyles and leadership challenges and the focus seems to be on a different aspect of military life in the discussion thus far. With one exception, it's good to hear from actual military folks however, regardless of rank. As a Naval Aviator, the chance to lead sailors will take some time as API, Primary & Advanced flight training and then the FRS means an aviator won't hit the fleet until at least an O-2. Possibly as an O-1 if he started from day one with training but right now it's not the case. I hit the fleet as a brand new O-3, it took 18 months just to start API and flight training. Often, actually being in charge of folks will be limited depending on the job in the squadron. The challenges of leadership and listening to your NCO's and senior enlisted, using thier experience and knowledge is probably the same across the board. [/QUOTE]
