ok, I'm 18 and in college, but my last semester I droped the ball and I'm reconsidering why im here. I've decided to enlist, somthing I had intended to do out of highschool. I want to do it smartly though.
My goal in the military is to become a pilot, this is one of my main motivations behind joining. I have the eyesight, the asvab scores ect but I need to lay a path. My recruiter has helped me out with this but i still have questions.
I want to go in as a chopper repair person but I need to decide what kind. I score a 92 asvab so im qualified for whatever I want assuming the position is available. As part of a chopper crew I would want to be a side gunner (or otherwise be able to ride along) I also want this MOS to make my application to WOCS easier...
1. What MOS would best lead me to WOCS after ~2-3 years?
2. Does my choice in chopper to work on effect what I will be flying after WOCS?
3. lets say you are part of a UH-64 crew, who is the side gunner / and or who flys along with the crew?
thanks for your help (and I do understand that it's not my wants but what the army needs but there is no harm in trying to be happy in my career)
