[QUOTE="NEp8ntballer, post: 14661999, member: 137316"] Yes but just to satisfy the what if but I wouldn't have taken this assignment and continued knowing what I know now. If I was smarter I would have picked up on the hints being dropped by the SOF guy I worked with a lot in Afghanistan when he was asking what I wanted to do next and said that I wanted to be like him instead of saying that the AF had already figured out my next job for me. Or I would have punched as soon as I could have like I was originally planning to and hit up some of my contractor friends to get me some gainful employment. I've learned some great skills and worked with some truly amazing people but the more I think about it there's absolutely no way that I'm cut out for a 20 year career as an AF Officer. I enjoy serving, leading people, getting to wear the uniform, and making a difference but pretty much everything else is slowly killing me. If I was really smart I would have started out enlisted so I could get a few years in toward retirement and then cross over so I could retire as a Captain or Major before any of the really political bullshit happens.
