They all get deployed...

In Reply to: Air Force question... - anyone?
My daughter just joined the AF last December. Finished BT and tech school in June. She is getting deployed Christmas day.
She has an environmental job, was told during MEPS, etc. that she would likely never get deployed. They lie. Thankfully she is getting deployed to some AF base near Dubai, not in a war zone, so I can sleep at night. I think deployment is 167 days or something like that. Anyway.... take anything the recruiter says with a grain of salt. They lied to my daughter about a lot of things - BUT - she absolutely loves the AF, loves her job, and I think she made a good decision. Try to support your son if you think his reasons are good for wanting to join, let him do it and hope for the best. :)
