Okay...I am really starting to get confused. I have known for a while I wanted to join either the Air Force or the Navy. I grew up as a military brat and liked it for the most part (I just DID NOT want to join the army.) If anyone read my previous posts, I am supposed to be signing my papers tomorrow, but today two of my uncles came and jumped down my back telling me don't do it! They said tell them never mind and go to the Air Force. They are saying the Air Force is better, better benefits and all. They say the Navy won't honor what I want, which is: to spend MAJORITY of my time on-land as a nurse in a base hospital (I know I will have sea time, but how much), a bonus (the recruiter said not everyone gets a bonus), to travel some, and room for promotion. My uncles said that you get promoted slower in the NAvy than any other branch. Thing is, I actually liked what the Navy recruiter said (I guess I am supposed to though, right.) I am confused. In your opinions, the pros/cons of both?
