My girlfriend has spoken to me about her joining the military in order to pay for gradschool. She has a mo-tard AF guy shes friends with who wont shut up about how awesome it is, and one of her friends was also in the airforce, got out and is collecting 3k a month and going to law school for free.
She is worried about paying for grad school. She's 27, has a criminal justice or some such degree from UF, and has a decent legal job, and is looking for more hence the interest in the military.
I told her she'd hate it but she wont believe me and shes asked me about joining for benefits and i pretty much just laugh her out of the room due to you guys, several guys ive spoken to ( 2 Nam era SEALs and a friends friend who was a green beret in afghanistan) and generally all the bullshit i hear about military life.
Can someone give me some reasons why she shouldn't join so the next time this comes up I have something other to say than you're loving retarded?
Military paralegal work sucks. Since that's her area, she'll hate it. Almost no true paralegal work, more akin to legal secretary.

What looks better for graduate school: spending time as an officer in the Army, or enlisting in the Air Force?
EDIT: Both would be either a public affairs or intelligence position.
Officer time is better for almost all purposes.

e: on second thought nevermind, dumb question with obvious answer
e2: on second thought, maybe I should use this wasted post for a different question. I've always heard that the air force has a higher quality of living than army, at least for enlisted. Is it the same for officers?
Yes.
