      jolly_pilot man wish I had the money for college rn. I am about to graduate in a few months and I know almost everything about aviation. Is there anyway I can join the navy an get my bachelors degree within the navy an be qualified to fly? Like say if I joined the Navu to work on helicopters. Can I get my college and go to ocs?

      @@JordanBulthuis If you do four years as an enlisted member, you can get your degree paid for with the GI Bill! Or you can enlist in the Air Guard and get your (state) tuition paid for, then apply for a pilot slot once you finish your degree.

      jolly_pilot So I’m not sure if the navy is much different then the Air Force. Can I go in the navy as an mechanic for helicopters and then after my four years get my college done. So should I re enlist an go do my college maybe online schooling with the bill. Would you think I would leave my postition as a mechanic then do college an join the navy as an officer after college and try an select a pilot spot. I’m not very well educated about the navy and Air Force flight programs. Man would be a dream to be able to fly for the military then retire an go for commercial flying. Just very confused on the whole college after/during military employment.
