Your brother-in-law is mistaken.
Not only is the Air Force the best branch for a military career, it is also the branch that has the best opportunities for a job in the technology field as a civilian afterwards, and is the branch that gives you the best chance of surviving to see it.
“Your brother-in-law is mistaken.”
What an Asinine statement.
You Don’t know what his experience was during his job search when he separated from the service.
This was in the Eighties and No he could not find anything for almost Two years. He had Four children with another on the way.
Ended up he became a Policeman.
So much for Good Jobs after the Airforce.
