For me, the path was clear.
For my little sister, five years younger and tremendously fearless, her path was vastly different.
She wanted to pursue criminology and was interested in the Air Force.

I wasnt sure if she would have to give up one passion for the other.
I wasnt sure if she was going to be able to afford a college education at a private university.
And I wasnt sure how, or if the Air Force could help her build a potential career.

I now see how this path, though very different than my own, is an amazing opportunity.
People join the Air Force from many different places and walks of life.
Some people join to serve their country.
Some join because of the many educational and health benefits.
Through the Air Force, you’re able to prepare for your future.
Through the Air Force, you learn valuable things about yourself and what motivates you.
The Air Force provides skills to build yourself both personally and professionally.
Through the Air Force, you’re free to create and cultivate life-long relationships.
You will get to know people of different ages, from many different cultures and backgrounds.
And this knowledge will give you insight that allows you to flourish in your future career and personal life.
This opportunity is invaluable.
