Hi-
I'm a first time poster posting because other threads have not completely answered my question. I am a 2/C Midshipman , and I'm here to seek advice on the matter of having a family in the aviation community to help advise my choice for service assignment. My specific question is: what's the best path to take to have a family and what are the risks involved in going that path (for instance, what if I don't get the platform of my choice?). I don't like sounding like a baby, because I know I joined the military, and I joined to serve my country, but I also feel a responsibility to my family. My wife-to-be is very supportive of whatever I decide to do, for which I'm very grateful, but I also want to make a choice that will be best suited for our future together. I've come onto this site at the recommendation of my brother, a future P-3 pilot, who just got his wings at Corpus to seek the advice of some more experienced members of the military. Thanks for any help you can offer!
