I would probably go towards the OR for now since I am very familiar with it already. I am already a competent circulator and first assistant but as we both know....us military guys could do more in the service than we will outside the service. Scope of practice shifts dramatically. I'm not sure about that housing allowance and all though. I think that's under the Post 9/11 GI Bill and I'm pretty sure I'm under the Montgomery GI Bill. Not sure though. Thank you for all the advice guys. It's appreciated :)

A lot of programs these days are straight to BSN classes but I have found some RN classes. Which is better in your opinion? I'm thinking the RN program would be better because then you can use it as a step level system. I'm not a fresh out of high school student - I am actually a USAF Surgical Technologist, almost 30, and I have bills. So I need to work while in school. I'm getting out of the service (Going guard actually) and after 13 collective years in medicine (civilian and Active Duty) I've decided to take up nursing as my career. So I have some concerns there... Considering that....which do you think is better to pursue? I will have the GI Bill to utilize. Would especially like to hear from active and former military who took the same pathway!
