If you have signed your enlistment papers you are contractually obligated to serve the term of your enlistment.
It's just like any contract, if you try to back out, there can be legal ramifications which could result in your receiving an Other Than Honorable Dischage. This is something that can have a negative impact on you for the rest of your life. If you have obligated yourself to serve in the Air Force, you need to fulfill that committment.
If you haven't signed anything that obligates you for a term of enlistment, then you can still change your mind. But if you back out at so late a date, you might want to consider that you may be killing any chance of ever getting into the military.

Yes my recruiter told me you CAN still back out even at BMT. Its after BMT that your stuck for good.
And ignore the funny guy saying Air Farce and what not and putting down the Air Force. Remember its the hardest branch to get into and you actually need a brain for the Air Force.
The people talking sh%t are probably guys who got rejected or have some physical condition and got turned down.
Make sure you make the right decision since it is 4 or 6 years of your life.

You are not in yet. You have no current obligation. It is fine to not want to go to Iraq (I dont either and neither do 90 percent of those who will criticize you). I am ex-military and will say this If you don't wanna go dont. You can always rejoin later if you change your mind. Just tell them you want more time to decide. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING ELSE AT MEPS.

you are not officially in, just contact your recruiter and pull out. Don't wait till the last minute or the day you go back to MEPS to get swore in again, just get out now.
If you go to boot camp you can't (well won't be easy), so do it now.

Most of these idiots calling you a wimp are sitting comfortably in their homes. If you're so brave, why don't YOU go enlist and get your head blown off so your president can have an oil dripping out of his ears?

There are some ways, but one needs to think if it's necessary, really!

are you sure you want to give up this wonderful opportunity? it sounds like you may be a little nervous. what do you have going for you presently? a good job? lots of money? unless there is something really holding you back i think you should go.

Bless your heart. I wish I knew. My 11 year old son said he wanted to be in the military when he grew up...I told him they didn't take people with broken feet, he said, but mom I don't have broken feet....I told him he would when he tried to enlist. I can't go through that. I have saw first hand what those countries and that war can do to someone.
