  3. Nursing Schedule in the Air Force or Navy

    Awesome! Good to know. So to get that 'E' designator, how do I find out if I qualify for that? If I do qualify I never have to go higher than a Captain at O3? Thats good to know because If BS has to be done only to get rank then I won't have to do mu...
