Two years from now I plan to be qualified to enlist in the US Air Force Reserves as a RN. I want to do this to have money coming in while I do my RN to BSN. I also have about a 7K student loan that I would love to get off my back. Will I be able to get a nursing scholarship from the Air Force, have them take care of my student loan, by just joing the Reserves for now? I plan to enlist full time when I complete my BSN! Also.. if I am in school and I want to enlist in the Air Force, will they put off me going to basic until I atleast finish my associates? My ASVAB score expires this coming up summer(I made an 89) and I don't want to put it to waste. I hope my questions are clear! Thanks in advance.

North Korea can have all the atom bombs that it wants as strategic deterrent. It may be tempted to sell to terrorists, and terrorists may destroy one or two western cities in the worst case scenario. If they do, North Korea will be destroyed.

Sometimes, reverse psychology is the best step forward. Perhaps it's time to tell the North Koreans "Go ahead, do whatever you want, we won't be blackmailed by providing you with aid or lifting economic sanctions against your repressive regime. But bear in mind you will face complete and utter annihilation if you paddle your atomic bomb technology or hardware itself to other rogue nations or terrorist organisations. There will be presumption of guilt."

Don't have to negotiate further, don't have to give them anything. Let them self implode. They will be more than willing to negotiate then. Like USSR, they will be beaten by spending on bombs, economic collapse and effective propaganda aimed at the population.

Any thoughts?

History lesson number 1... John F. Kennedy was a Democrat.

History lesson number 2... John F. Kennedy was the president that started sending Army "advisors" aka Special Forces into Viet Nam

History lesson number 3... we had no exit strategy

History lesson number 4... we pulled out without winning the war

History lesson number 5... 50,000 Americans died for basically nothing.

History lesson number 6... Kennedy almost got us into a nuclear war with the Soviet Union making a stand with the Cuban missle crisis.

So the Democrats are not so pure afterall.

My Husband has been In IRAQ since April 2 of this year, and he got home about two weeks ago a TOTALLY different person!!! I'll admit, things on my end were different too, I had a first baby In July and I started my internship at a teaching hospital, but he's just so............strange. I the middle of the night, If I go to kiss him while he's sleeping, He jumps and starts freaking out. He won't even play with our daughter and says that he doesn't want to be alont with her. He seems REALLY withdrawn and distant from me, He's so quiet. His best friend (Who's my big brother) came over to take him out the other day, and my bro told me that he just set in the corner all night. He won't talk to me..........about anything, and all I want to do is help. I want to throught my arms around him and tell him that everythings gonna be OK...... but I just can't do it. I miss the man I married, He won't tell me anything, He leaves back out on Jan 4 and I want to know if anybody else has been through

I was abused by my husband, we were abandoned when he left to a new base. and now after JAG and IG cant get him to pay the BAH we are now homeless. The SGT major wont let us have an AER loan because he believes its best to send us home. Home for us is Alaska. We are now in FT Drum NY. This sgt major has made more hurdles to jump through rather than help us with a small loan that my husband and his unit has agreed to already. the only person in our way is this one sgt major. How do i get around this guy to get AER to approve of this loan.

A di threw hard cover books at their heads, i was sent to the pit just for making an unauthorized water call. another thing about water, some recruits were made to do bends and thrusts after a 5 mile hump just because they drank water from their ccanteens without asking permission. a few recruits been held back a week in training for violations they never done, a guy was blanket partied, he ran to the DI's duty hut, banged on the door, and the DI laughed in his face and slammed the door shut. my question, is, why the army, nay, and air force dont use these sadistic tactics but the marine corps feels they have the right to do so?

(In this movie Travolta works for the government deep undercover)

Jackman: War? Who are we at war with?
Travolta: Anyone who impinges on America's freedom. Terrorist states, Stanley. Someone must bring their war to them. They bomb a church, we bomb 10. They hijack a plane, we take out an airport. They execute American tourist, we tactically nuke* an entire city. Our job is to make terrorism so horrific that it becomes unthinkable to attack Americans.

(*I wouldn't say nuke a city, but maybe do some damage.)

he's been briefed by every expert on the war. he's talked to every official involved in the war. why does it seem that this war is just a waiting game for him to stall and stall. don't say that he has to make major decisions here and it takes time because he should've thought about that before unless you're willing to admit that he operates on bad intelligence.

First, everyone is entitled to an informed opinion.

If you have never been to Iraq and seen what it is like there can you really form an opinion on weather we should be there or not? Most people form their opinions on Iraq by what the see on the evening news and listening to politicians. But they don't stop and consider the fact that the main stream media is extremely bias in their reporting. The news is historically pro Democrat and is quick to push the Democratic agenda.

Why is it all the news reports is how many Americans were killed today? Is nothing good happening in Iraq that is news worthy? I can tell you the answer to that is yes! I was there in 2005 and the military does alot of good things that is news worthy but that would not make President Bush and the military look like a bunch of incompitant fools, so the news ignores it.

Until you are ready to pick up a weapon and go out on patrol with us just thank us for doing our part, so you don't have to.

wouldn't Bush try to go out with his head held high by saying something like our military is needed in another bad situation like Darfur or South Korea blah blah blah. Hasn't this tactic already been used.

I heard from some friends that have loved ones home from Iraq that their next missions were to go to South Korea or Africa. this has been very recent. considering that the brits and italy etc...have already announced troop withdrawel in the spring and with the fact that many say more troops are needed in Iraq to win why would the Iraqi trained soldiers be deploying to these destinations?
wouldn't this be a good exit strategy for Bush to say we are needed elsewhere.

I want to finish my bachelor's in Japan and join the Air Force as an officer. I am an RN but I don't want a BSN. I just want to know if the Air Force will pay 100% of my studies at Temple University in Japan? Especially when I plan to serve on their base in Okinawa.

I know several families that have loved ones in the military and they are being told that their next missions will be either in South Korea or Africa. Does this mean we are pulling out of Iraq considering the fact everyone says we need MORE troops in Iraq.
