Question
if i had a friend that wanted to join with me is there anyway we could stay togther and be stationed at the same base?
You can join together, and go to BMT together, but it is rare that buddues get the same job and end up at the same base. This is becasue you both have different qualifications and the military is not set up to send those who are friends to the same base....Its all about the needs of the military ,.
But on the other hand...I have seen stranger things happen, you can apply and see, but do not expect to stay together...

I have spent the past 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, 3 years was assigned as an Enlisted Accessions Recruiter. I have been deployed various times to several locations. If it is a career in the military you are looking for or thinking about I most likely have the answer. I still have contacts with in the recruiting field and if I don't know the answer then I have folks who do where I can find the answer. I am very blunt and straight forward and will make no attempts to BS you. I will give you the best information that I possible can can. If you think that you cant handle the answer that I give you, then don't ask the question...... If you are planning on joining the military, your number 1 decision factor in making this kind of move is that you need to be more concerned about serving your country than your country serving you!! All the benefits are the best that you can find. Education is at a premium right now and its the most rewarding thing that you can do. If I dont answer right away probably means that I am busy, but have patience, I will get to you.
