Both are good choices.  He should decide based on his own likes and dislikes, though.  I can speak about Intel jobs, as I was Army Intel for 6yrs.  I worked with alot of AF imagery intelligence analysts in Miami, FL.  They all told me the job was great and promotions were plentiful.  Seemed to keep them all quite high and dry, too.  They spent hours in front of computer screens identifying military targets, equipment, etc from satellite surveillance imagery.  The medical personnel were just like any normal hospital personnel, though.  They have jobs for nurses, aides, assistants, records, etc.  The Air Force has its own community college that grants degrees for schooling and experience in a job as well.

I don't know how old you are but the military has some good schooling, and afterward some great training.  you tend to do more in the medical field in the military and can gain lots of knowledge and experience, and also have many opportunities to go to more schooling both in the service and civilian schools where you're stationed.  It's just a regular job once you're through the schools.

We had two airmen who left during basic from my flight for being gay.  Typically, the Air Force has so little invested in you at that stage of your career that it makes no sense for them to do anything other than give you an administrative discharge and send you on your way.  You could also simply fail the physical requirements, or a number of other tests they give you.  "Failure to adapt to military life" is a valid reason for discharge as well.

(i am assuming you are from the United States)  depends on what you are skilled in and what you are interested in.  the military will look at your strengths and weaknesses and train you for what you're good for.  If you are extremely intelligent don't be surprised if you get a desk job.  in the army or marines you'll probably become a foot soldier or a tank operator or something, but you may also be trained in helicopter flight.  the Airforce will likely have you as a aircraft mechanic but there is a small chance of becoming a pilot (less than 7% in the Airforce fly, i think).  If you want to join the military but want to be safe as possible, join the Navy.  those ships we got are pretty safe considering all the wars the US is in is with terrorists in mountains, not against countries with a well developed Navy.  these are just suggestions of things to look into.  basically just go into whatever branch that can help you build your strengths.  sorry for the lengthy post.

If your intentions are to possibly leaned towards a career I would highly reccommend the choice you have already made. The Air Force is an excellent choice family wise also. If you like to spend months onboard a ship, then by all means join the Navy. If you like walking, marching or bouncing around in a vehicle, join the Army. If you think you are the macho type and enjoy running errands on a ship, plus like to march or strut around like a tin soldier and think your the badest ass in town, go with the Marines. It's as simple as that. There is no such thing as the best, we're all in this together and should act as such. To me there is no single hero, in my personal opinion anyone who puts on a uniform and serves his country (USA)honorably for a full tour of duty in any branch of the services deserves to be called a hero.

I'm thinking about joining soon too.  I found a few good online resources to help me out.  My favorite is military.com.  Check it out:

Air Force. The Air Force is the more technical of the brances and rely on computers to run their very foundation. Plus they treat there personel better. Better living arrangements, food, spousal support, etc. Good luck with what you choose.

Joining as a medical assistant is probably one of the better branches to join although qualifications and job are not really comparable to a nurse or paramedic. The first year or so in training is nothing like serving with the fleet so if you join dont expect to see much of the real navy until you get on a ship. If you can stand it its a great experience and you will get to do and see things that you would never get a chance to do otherwise.

I joined the AF right after the start of Desert Storm. I din't join because of the war that's just when I went in and I loved it. Spent 7 yrs in before I was diagnoised with type 1 diabetes. I think it's a great chance for one to grow without just being dumped on your own right after high school. MOST AF people are behind the scenes We didn't go on on the front lines. Not to mention the AF treats their people really well. IF you do join, just remember boot camp is a mind game, the real AF is not like what you will endure in Boot camp. I say DO IT!!

I'm in the Air Force, but I dont understand your question.  What exactly are you asking?

as far as QOL is concerned, the Navy and AF are pretty comperable, although there will always be those that prefer one over the other.  \n\nBe aware that it's EXTREMELY hard to get into the AF right now, even through Interservice transfer, as the AF is more overmanned than the Navy is, and unless his Rating/NECs translate directly into a much needed AF equivalent, he may have a rough time being able to swap services.

The higher the better.  Air Force is very competitive.  Also, your ASVAB score will determine which MOS (jobs) you will or won't qualify for. You only get a couple shots at the ASVAB, so study your brains out!

All I know is I hope all of our USAF pilots are flying those aircraft with fully functional & alert brains at all times. Even Crew Chiefs & Mechanics should be 100% drug-free & continually alert.\n\nMy advice is if you occasionally use a recreational drug, find another line of employment because the USAF has much more important issues to monitor, other than who is suspected of going back on drugs after they passed the pre-entrance drug screening. Even past addiction can show it's ugly head again, and the USAF =Will= find out!\n\nJust remember there are urine, blood & hair folicle tests that they can subject a person to "without Prior warning", even after you're admitted in. So if you have something to hide, look into selling real estate or maybe selling insurance. Both have higher income potentials anyway. :))

Look, check with the U.S. military bases. Lots of americans (not military) get overseas jobs that way. try "AAFES"  I think that means army air force exchange serves

i actually tried to join the air force when i was 18.  this was in 1990 during desert storm.  i scored very high on the asvap test and the recruitor said i could have any job i wanted but every job that i suggested he denied because women weren't allowed to do those jobs (this was back before women had been in combat).  so i kept suggesting jobs, he kept saying no becuase i was a woman.  finally he said i should just play in the air force band.  i went off on him and told him where he could go, and at that time i realized that if i was telling off a recruiter, perhaps i didn't have what it took to join the military anyway lol
