Anyone in the AF reserve NurseCorps?

Published

Specializes in Emergency, Critical Care.

I'm considering joining, and I have some questions.

1.) How often are AF reservists deployed to war zones? Are deployments to the ME more or less common than deployments to other military bases around the world?

2.) how long are AF deployments?

3.) what's the stipend for newly commissioned officers on a yearly basis?

4.) I've read that Space A flights are a benefit, has anyone actually taken advantage of this? Do the benefits extend to family members?

5.) what is the training like? Is it a normal "basic" experience or is it abbreviated?

And any other information you might want to add would be great, too. I'm starting a 3 semester post-bac BSN in January, and I would also be interested in knowing if I have to wait until I graduate to join or if I can join prior to graduation to help out with financial stuff.

Thanks!
