Not uncommon.

I heard if I pass medical &amp; AFOQT and all my items are submitted, it will take 6-14 months for me to get my start date after Sept. A recruiter told me that with my degrees not being in high demand, I have a 15% chance of being selected. Is this true? I am interested in Space Ops (satellites), then public affairs 2nd. I&#39;m looking into non-rated jobs and not interested in rated. I would like to become an officer just not sure what the AF needs are with my background. Is this a &quot;hail Mary&quot; pass or is this a possibility for me and my degrees? What can I do to stand out? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. Kyra Y.

I bet dollars to pesos they will take them. Just a thought.

Our military has become much more in-tune to psychological issues than any time in our nation&#39;s history. Come on in, we need you!
