I would say she is far too smart and pretty for the Marines and you should send her to the AF, but like most, if an AF recruiter is talking, they are likely misrepresenting the chances of something happening (all are optimists). Assignments told my daughter that they could almost guarantee her one of her top choices for he next assignment. She asked for only stateside (nonvol for overseas). She just got an assignment to Korea. now the tell her not to be annoyed, because they promise she will get her choice of follow on assignment. But, when she asked for that in writing the got mad and would not talk to her any more. As a doctor/officer, she gets to work her assignments a little. They will not even talk to junior enlisted folks who are just a number.
I really cannot imagine a Marine Corp Reserve Unit not doing a tour in the sandbox since we are starting to ramp up there again.
