I would learn how to write and spell better if you want to be a WO in the US Army.

I is a proper noun and ALWAYS capitalized. PURSUING is spelled this way. You will need to be able to pass the ASVAB with a score of 110 or better and the Flight Aptitude Test as well. If you are not prior service, you'll go before a board of officers and THEY will decide if they believe you have what it takes.

@GreenMarineSVX do u meen fort rucker alabama

[GreenMarineSVX]

@RunningSwimmingMan Yeah, the NG can be slow for promotion. I'm a good example of that... Been a 2LT now for 32 months (promotion time from 2LT to 1LT in Active Duty is only 18 months, and basically automatic), however part of the reason for nearly 2x the required time is because I did a branch transfer from CBRN to Aviation, and they didn't have a slot to fit me into for promotion. So I can't get promoted until I'm qualified as an Army Aviator. I'm not chasing rank though - I JUST WANT TO FLY

@GreenMarineSVX Yea, but isn't the NG like really slow for promotion...?

Or you are talking, the easiest path to to flying helicopters?

I retired years ago, wish would have stayed. One thing about warrants that most people probably don't know, W5's get treated almost like full-bird colonels, Just drive by a PX, there's always a spot marked "O6 / Cmd Sargent Major OR W5"

My last boss was a W5 Marine, he could get away with murder. He used to email the Commandant directly.

To ANYONE thinking about flying (or doing anything) in the military, let me say this... "The National Guard is one of the best kept secrets"... Seriously, look into this... Those of you that read this and are already down here at Rucker will know what I mean ;-)

@arm4life87 You can become a warrant officer. Although I am not totally positive on the requirements. Honestly though, just finish college and go to OCS and become a real officer... The Warrant side is really cool, but promotions are slow and to get to CW-3 you are looking at ATLEAST 6 years after pinning CW-2. But I heard one of the requirements to pin CW-3 is a college degree. Not positive though. I just went OCS route instead...
