Winter break this year was 3 weeks, usafa goes back on Sunday the 7th, the other two academies go on the 2nd.

Active duty you won’t move around a whole lot. I’d say you would be at a base for a year or two at least, with maybe a couple temporary duties (TDY) in there. UNcynical would be the best to comment here.

I thought reserve you got to be out in the civilian world with a few weeks of training a year and a part time job in the AF still. I’m really not sure here too.

Doubt you would be called up to active duty in reserve AF by the nature of the wars today, the Army and Navy is a different story though.

You will have plenty of contact with the rest of the world, if you can’t handle being a little cut-off, not the right career choice IMO.
