I’m beginning to near my 20s and curious about what I should NOT do.

Joining the Naval Reserves. It actually cost me money when I had to take time off of work to do my weekend drills... Ironically, I would join the active Army in my 30's and found it to be one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. Go figure.

Why did you switch branches? While I was in the air force I met a lot of former army crossovers to air force. Mostly pilots. Guess they had the need for speed.

When the Iraq war started (or resumed depending on who you talk to), I decided to rejoin the military. I called a Navy recruiter and they said that the gap between the time I got out and that time was too long. I called the Air Force and they said I was too old. The Army took me in with open arms...

Too old for the AF?! They aren't even ground troops which is hard labor. Air Force is best known for having the NCO club up and running before the flight line is complete.

I know, right? Well, if I were just a fresh recruit they might have taken me, but since I was prior service they said that 34 was too old (The cutoff for the Army was 35)
