Keep in mind as well that it takes a certain type of man to pull off an ascot. Are you that man?

So, Mr Cracker Jack,... do the Navy Boys still wear their Dixie Cup? That's very cute.
And, jink all you want, but: Soap-on-a-rope = Navy.

That's Mrs. Cracker Jack, to you, Huggy. Daughter of career AF man and wife of a Helo bubba, so I'm not really hating on the ascot. Oh, and I'm the one who drops my Navy boy's soap, thank you very much. ;)

Wow, a lot of great points I didn't even think of including. It definitely seems to me that the Navy places significantly more emphasis on leadership than the Air Force, which is more technically-based and business-like (literally). So keep in mind that in the Navy you will be an officer first and a pilot second. Also, there is a lot of strongly-held tradition in the Navy, especially compared to the Air Force. It is a vastly different culture.

I agree. The OP stated that he wanted to become a pilot at all costs. In that case, I would suggest United Airlines or whoever is hiring this week.

In the Navy, you are an officer and leader first. The back to back flying tours are getting rarer. You an easily fly 3 years and then spend 6 years on shore duty and in a disassociated sea tour (no flying).

If you want the guaranteed flight spot, then you need to talk to a Marine Officer Selection Officer. Guaranteed flight school and no obligation until you get commissioned. Plus you already passed the ASTB, so all you have to do is apply for OCS.
