Yes I was an ICU tech in the Air Force about 10 years ago. I saw the orientation that the nurses had then and it was not good. I have 2 years as a ED RN and I am in really good ICU orientation now. The recruiter wanted me to come in as a ED nurse but...

After all of my research I have decided to follow in your footsteps and go active duty air force then try to get a CRNA slot. I am in the process of getting my ICU identifier so I can be in the ICU when I come in. Thanks again for all the advice. tw...

Thanks for the info. I spoke to the nurse recruiter today. I only need 6 months ICU and I will have that in a few months. I am really excited that things are moving forward. My goal is to attend CRNA school and I think this is a move in the right dir...

I am thinking of returning to active duty. I am an air national guard nurse with some ICU time. I have about 2 years of ER and would like to gain another year of ICU time before I come in. Should I wait until I have a full year of ICU or do I join no...

Hi olderthandirt, Do you know if there are any more slots left for your class? When is the last board? My deployment might get cancel so i can startif it is not too late. twoods

There is affordable housing and there is also base housing.

I went to UH then graduated from HPU. I work at CHW in the ICU. What about you? Where do you work and which dept?

I left there in 2002 to go to college in Hawaii. I know exactly what you are talking about... Yes I go commission 2 years ago.

I like both the Guard and Reserves. I was once active duty as a med tech from 1995-1999. The guard goes on some cool AT's. last year we went to Puerto Rico. It is funny because I use to be a part of the ASTS when I was enlisted. Small world. How do y...

Yes I am do you know anyone there?

I was station at there what unit are you with? ASTS, MDS, AES? I am now Air National Guard.

Thanks for the info. I did not take any bonus so I don't owe the AF anymore time. When i return from Iraq I will do an interservice transfer. I am not active duty now I am air national guard. Good luck to you also.

Thanks for the getting me the real answers. I live in California and would love to go to Travis AFB. I was once an active duty med tech there. It is not that I am against the Army, I am just not sure what would be the best thing. I think what I will ...

It is really tough to decide. I have been in the Air Force for 14 years now. I am not active duty but I know the Air Force. I am afraid if I go active duty and wait I may not get into CRNA school. It is not a risk I want to take. The Navy recruiter t...

OCS is call COT for the Air Force. And it is 15 to 30 days. And it is in AL. I am a air national guard officer. Let me know if you have any questions. Tejon

Travis AFB, CA. Hands down.

If you had to do it all over again would you do it the same way? Or would you apply to the Army program? I am Air Force blue and blue but the Army has a direct accession program that will allow me to come straight in. What would you if you were my sh...

I am planning to apply to the Army CRNA program. I am a Air National Guard nurse with 2 years ED and now I just transferred to the ICU. I will be applying to 6/2010 class. How early did you apply? Were you on Active duty first? Thank you. Tejon

How long did you serve in the AF before you applied?

Did you get answers to your questions regarding Army CRNA programs?

Wow this post is a wealth of information. I am in the process of applying for 6/2010 class. You are correct about the deadline being 1 July. I will be deploying with Air National Guard and not back in time to apply. I will have to apply early maybe n...

My name is Tejon. I am ER nurse who plans to change to the ICU and apply to this program from next year. Please any SRNA give me advise on having a strong application and gaining acceptation. Thank you again. I am already a officer in the ANG. Respe...
