I’m located in Miami, FL and looking into joining the Air Force Reserve. My goal is to choose an AFSC that gives me good opportunities to deploy, travel, gain useful experience, and potentially spend more time on active duty orders while still being a Reservist.

For those currently serving, which Air Force Reserve jobs/AFSCs tend to deploy the most or have the most opportunities for active duty orders?

Also, are there good AGR (Active Guard Reserve) opportunities around South Florida/Miami? Can you serve as a traditional Reservist and later move into an AGR position, or how does that process work?

I’m trying to choose the best career field and path based on these goals. Any firsthand experience or recommendations would be appreciated!

I am in financial hardship. My car's transmission is toast. My unemployment is exhausted. The problem isn't getting interviews. For my line of work I have to go to the state capital hours away for the interview. Can't do that right now. I've signed up with a temp agency, but there's no work locally. It's a somewhat rural area. I went to some local fast food spots and not hired.

My recruiter only let me know a few days before I swore in that I would have UTA days BEFORE BMT. I was very transparent about my financial situation the whole enlistment process.

The Master Sargeant on the base excused me for Sept UTA under financial hardship. But for October he said he would need to let leadership know on Monday. The UTA date is on Oct 16th. As soon as I was connected to the Master Sargeant in August, I have let him know my current situation.

I live less than 150 miles away but still two hours away. So a car rental won't be refunded (you have to be 150+ miles away). Nor do I have the cash to even put down a deposit for one. It would be a little over $500.

I'm on my last few hundred dollars of savings. Not sure what to do.

In a perfect world I could find a civilian job on base and they could offer temp housing while I wait for BMT. Not sure if that's a possibility.

I already got my CAC card done. My friend could offer me a ride but they would need to stay in the hotel with me bc they can't afford gas to leave the two hours back on Friday and then come get me on Sunday. They're going through a messy custody battle and have a lot of legal fees. My recruiter let me know that's not allowed. Only I'm supposed to be in the hotel room.

What do you think leadership will say?

What are my options?

Are there any employment/housing services I qualify for pre-BMT?

For Those Who Joined the Guard/Reserve: How Did You Qualify for GI Bill & VA Loan Benefits?

Im planning on going reserves or guard and want to make sure I get a job that will get me some flight time.

I want to make it through the process before my 40s. I just scored a 288 on my GRE. I have nearly 20 years of healthcare experience, and hold an MBA. I currently serve as an associate hospital administrator. How competitive does one need to be to make it through the process?

Anybody work at Patrick SPB and are avid Disney goers? If so where do you commute from? Looking at housing near east\south Orlando and was wondering what that daily drive is like.

Looking for a bit of advice , I F(25) am looking to join ARG for either Air Force or army . I have a college degree graduated with cum laude honors however my degree isn’t a competitive Air Force degree it’s multidisciplinary studies . I’m looking to weigh the pros and cons of enlisting in the Air Force or either commissioning into the army . My husband is prior AF so he’s saying AF but I’m just not sure

TL;DR: Need advice for navigating palace chase with a potential change in afsc in the reserves while seeking civilian employment in police department.

I am currently trying to weigh palace chasing into the Reserves in order to move into law enforcement. I would need to retrain to a different afsc as my current afsc (1N3H) can't be stationed in the state that I would be moving. I could always move to a Reserve unit where I am currently stationed, but it would result in me driving 6.5hrs every month for drill, which is pretty inconvenient. From what I have been told the palace chase process can take roughly 4-6 months to finalize, and the hiring process for the police department can take 2-4 months also. With me having to potentially retrain to a new afsc in the reserves, I am trying to figure out how to make it work to where I can complete the new tech school and get into the police academy as seamlessly as possible. I don't know at what point to apply to the police department or to palace chase. So, my question is has anyone been in a similar situation as this, and if so, how did you coordinate it to work seamlessly? If not, what advice would you give that could help me navigate these steps that I am trying to make? I appreciate any/all advice given.

Recruiter locked me in for C-5 loadmaster after I was told there is no more c17 slots. Can anybody tell me the difference between the two, advantages and disadvantages. As well as the type of locations c5 often go to
