Seperated by DUTY, United by LOVE, worth it?

Question

I am currently a student in college who is very interested in join the Air Force. I plan to take the HPSP program, to become a military physician, and become a commissioned officer, most likely a captain.
I was wondering if anyone knew the role of the military doctors in the Air Force? Such as how their daily lives are and during war, their training, and their pay.

Also I have wanted some opinions on what people think on the idea of joining the military. My parents are DEAD AGAINST it and telling me to change my mind, because of afraid of me getting shipped to war and dying. Lately after watching the video called "before you enlist", I myself am very perplexed. For I must go to 8 years of schooling, and what if I become wounded or terminated at an early age.
For those who have not seen the video, please watch or the gist of it, to really see what i mean

Answer 1

pay its the same as everyone their rank basically they get some pay that others dont. go in and talk to a recruiter. you need to decide what you want. its your like we cant tell you what or how to live your life. if you want to join go ahead the military will help you get your education while you serve.
