I swore in to the Delayed Entry Program a few days ago. I met with my recruiter and gave him a few jobs I'm interested in. I chose 6: In-Flight Refueling, Aircraft Loadmaster, Airborne Operations, Aircrew Flight Equipment, Air Transportation and Aircraft Armament Systems Apprentice. Then Open General...
As you can tell I'm not interested in medical fields or electrical. I'm open to some paper-pushing jobs but I'd like to actually be doing something.
My ASVAB scores: AFQT62 M61 A61 G64 E58
I don't have any medical limitations. (depth, color blindness, hearing, ect... all good)
I would love to travel as much as possible and I wouldn't mind deploying a lot.
Thanks guys!
edit: I'll be enlisting as an E-3, if that matters.

C130 loadmaster, I'd say. I took a poll during my career, and I never met a C130 loadmaster who didn't adore the job. The missions are more frequent, shorter, and to a greater variety of places than larger aircraft types. I understand that these days the J-model C130 loadmaster also operates as flight engineer.
There's one other on the list... crew chief. Every time I flew it started with the dedication of the crew chief. It's the hardest job you'll ever love.
Best paper pushing job post Air Force is contracting as it leads directly into a 100k job either as a GS employee in career 1102 or working for a large corporation. Also the 8 to 5 lifestyle in air conditioning is nice also.
And regarding the loadmaster--they don't actually load the cargo themselves. They plan and direct the loading. I was intel myself and loved it, but I'm an admitted nerd. If you want to be on the go and see places, I think C130 loadmaster is the ticket for an enlisted person.

Had an enlisted (A1C) female in our Air Freight unit that wanted to be more than a just "Load Toad" so she applied for Loadmaster school, was accepted and off she went to Altus AFB (for C-5's at the time) for training.
Sometime later (about a year), she came back to visit friends and the old unit, we asked how she liked it and a big grin appear on her face...She loved it!!!!!.
I stated that at the time, Loadmaster school for C-5's was done at Altus AFB, and for C-130's was/is done at Little Rock AFB, don't know if it has changed.
There's also survival, water and parachuting training as well.

Good luck.
C-5 at Kelly/Lackland, C-130 still at The Rock. C-17 and KC-135 training at Altus (I see them in the pattern 30 miles west daily). As far as TDY goes, one great location, one very good one, and one, oh well.

Did my time at Altus, America (1996 - 2000)
