E7 out of bootcamp? O6 after commission? Is this the right choice?

9.31K

An update to an article already posted, it seems that the military as a unit may possibly undergo a major change if congress gives the go-ahead. What does this mean for our service? Is this really the right decision?

*Note: At the moment, only licensed physicians can come in as O4 or O5, and that is only with Congressional and Presidential approval which may take months to years.

Discuss.

For all positions save doctors and lawyers, I disagree. Vehemently.
