<p>kk is obviously offended that anonymous posters on a forum have other experiences and suggestions or insights to offer.</p>

Unlike you I’m not going to spit off a whole bunch of jargon that doesn’t really help the OP at this point. I like to keep it simple for other future viewers/students to also understand. I’m not going to be the dolt posting on the web everyone I’ve met and everything I’ve ever done just to somehow prove my position on, once again, an anonymous forum where everything should be taken with a grain of salt anyway.</p>

Talk about conjecture. You’re right, the OP won’t be looking to AD for about another 4 years from now. If going on your own statement that the Army may be different in 4-10 years, then offering the argument that the OP may not be well suited for the Army today is a bit pointless. A LOT of things can happen in 4 years. It’s worthless to the OP if you are speculating negatively on their initial plan based on what may possibly happen or continue to happen in the future.</p>
<p>
This is one of your more correct statements. OP, as I’m sure you might have thought, your general plan will take some time.</p>
<p>OP, there are some people here that are trying to give the best unprofessional advice we can, but there are others who would rather pump their chests and try to be the know-all be-all. With anything you take away from here, just know that everything said is just a grain in the shaker. We are only one view point and outside resources may turn up some better suggestions (like an Army recruiter).</p>
