Yeah, Air Force is the place to be if you're joining the military - or the Navy...

Yeah, AF is definitely the way to go, I did 13 years active and now I'm full time Guard. You won't have any trouble getting the SF job, it's always short on people. You will be doing a LOT of front gate duty to start and then guaranteed desert time once you are qualified.

You a high school graduate with no criminal history? The Air Force is real picky. They dont let just anyone in.. you're gonna have it earn it!

Any of the Military Police positions will set you up quite nicely for a career in Law Enforcement when you get out if that's what you want to do. The Air Force Basic Training is the shortest of the bunch (or at least it used to be...haven't looked in a while) and should be no problem. They make you exercise and do a lot of yelling. If you can handle that you'll be fine.
Take the ASVAB and see what you qualify for. You never know, you might have opportunities available to you that you were never even aware of.

ive already taken the asvab .i was once interested in joining the army only took the test tho.
im not exactley sure what i scored but i know i qualified for pretty much everything and all the bonuses and all that good stuff.
i would love to make the military a career and especially law enforcement and i know any military branch looks supreme on a resume.
i checked the air force website and basic is only 6 weeks.
compared to the army's 9 weeks (i could be wrong about the exact number)

Well, if you do decide to go in, good luck. Many people make fun of the Air Force, but whatever it is you want to do, good luck with it and you have my blessings for serving the country. I'm on and off with the military, so far as I want to enlist but just don't really have the nerve to take that kind of leap. I have a feeling if my life continues this sort of dead end feeling of not making it ahead and not really doing anything with my life, I'll finally do it and go in. I'm looking at the Army if I do go in. Knowing what you want to do is your best bet, that way you know what steps you have to take before going into it.
Keep your head up, be safe, and keep one eye open. I wouldn't sweat basic anyway, I've never heard one person tell me that they couldn't do it. From what I hear, so long as you show you're giving 100% they don't ride your ass like full metal jacket style.
