None of the other branches have Airborne Rangers, I wouldn't change that experience for anything.

At one time I did try to get into the Air Force as a Combat Controller. It didn't work out due to having PRK. Looking back I would do it all over again. The only difference I would make is that I would try to commission earlier.

SGT Sergio Guifarro -

Here is what their website says.
Mission
Air Force Special Operations Command's combat controllers are battlefield Airmen assigned to special tactics squadrons. They are trained special operations forces and certified FAA air traffic controllers. The mission of a combat controller is to deploy, undetected, into combat and hostile environments to establish assault zones or airfields, while simultaneously conducting air traffic control, fire support, command and control, direct action, counter-terrorism, foreign internal defense, humanitarian assistance and special reconnaissance in the joint arena.

Their motto, "First There," reaffirms the combat controller's commitment to undertaking the most dangerous missions behind enemy lines by leading the way for other forces to follow.

I would still do Army. But, the condition would have to be that I retain ALL knowledge I've amassed.

I would still go Air Force but, with college out of the way now, I might have to go officer.
