 I will say between AW and AH working with people towards goals, no matter how unimportant, or how drunk, it has to have helped me along the way.

well when i was about 11 i decided i wanted to join the airforce. found this game, made me wanna join even more and im actually looking forward to joining. its not about the fat wad of cash that you supposedly get or the glory you get when you come back. its about serving my home land and ensuring that freedom remains in the USA. AH has made the desire to join even bigger because i know that ill actually be doing something for my country

(but i do wanna be an AC-130 gunner and fire the 105mm just once!)

In total seriousness, after my kids car accident in 2005,  the only place I could escape for a little bit now and then was into AH.  It was WW2 airplanes which has been my passion since I was a kid.  My cartoon pilot is invincible and I was anything but.  The support I got from folks here helped keep me going through an unbelievably hard time.

Best of luck!  Remember to study hard for the ASVAB, and find a recruiter that you trust.  Sky's the limit dude.

Dude, it seems like that was exactly was what I was going to post. Also wanted to join the Air Force for my best friend/"sister" (she was a pilot but then developed a brain tumor, she's fighting extremely well now). Only difference is that I would like to find myself at the controls of a Thunderbolt II since my friends great grandfather was a Thunderbolt pilot.

I hear ya, I went pretty close to your situation because of AH too. When I was still working only 8 hour days I was spending 120+ hours on MA per month. That's not good for a relationship or father/child bonding I can tell you that.

I would like to blame AH on my impending divorce, but apparently, I'm just an a**hole.

AH spurred me on to do research into my families part in the war. I know of three who were in the AAF now. I have been heavily researching B-29 operations and collecting material relating to the 444th BG, I've ordered the official history and as many accounts as I can find. I've even telephoned veterans and interviewed them. I tell myself maybe I'll write a book someday, but I have no idea how to start. This is mostly because AH keeps these thing alive for me.

S! Hitech and the crew
