my dad was (is) in the air force. i would go to college first, then do the air force though.
basically, my dad was a flight surgeon, and he served in desert storm. he made it to lt. colonel, but stopped a few years ago, and is on inactive reserve (i think). i'm not sure how long he was in the air force though. it was after he got out of medical school.
i think he had a very good experience though. but go to college before you go into the air force. that way you have something to fall back on if you end up realizing that the airforce isnt your thing.
