I'm a junior nursing student (going for my BSN). I've been contemplating joining either the AF or Navy because of the wonderful learning experiences, patriotism, and traveling opportunities. I also plan on going for MSN a little later but I want to work as a "regular" nurse for a while until I decide on a specialty. My questions are: What are the pros/cons of the Navy Nurse Corps vs AF Nurse Corps? As for as technology/advancements, which is better? Which would be more appropiate for someone intending on going back to school for a MSN? What are the major differences between the two branches (besides the obvious)? How soon before I graduate from college should I start talking to a military health recruiter? Anybody have any regrets about joining/not joining a particular branch? Why?
