Hey guys,
I'm Matt and I am currently in the beginning stages of joining the Air Force. I am 26 years old and have wanted to join the military since I was around 14. Originally I had planned on joining directly after high school, but we all know how that goes-- didn't for a female. I signed my paperwork today, and my MEPS date is the 31st of this month. I am going for Combat related positions. My recruiter suggested I attend a PAST test on the 24th of this month to observe and meet everyone. My dream, which I'm sure is shared with many on this forum, is to be a Pararescueman. I have played baseball my entire life but I do not think I am on the physical level to compete and beat out others in selection at the moment. I work close to 60 hour weeks in the car business and simply do not have as much time to train as those that can just drop everything. I am thinking of trying for TACP since my current run time is close to a minute below their standard, and the other physical exercises aren't an issue. Anyway enough rambling since this is simply an introduction.
Thanks for reading if you made it this far!
