Im going to be a senior in high school and ive recently been
getting interested in joining the military mainly(pilot position)
an id like sum pros and cons of joining from someone who
has actually been there and done that.

i know i have to be a college grad, but how hard it is to get the position
and what would i need to do to in order to have the highest chances
of getting the job...and will they pay for lasic eye surgery?
 
You are correct, you have to be a college graduate in the Marine Corps, Navy, and AIr Force. In the Army Warrant Officers can become pilots, without a degree. If you have a degree in engineering, especially aviation, or another technical degree that will look good in your application package. You have to take a test to become eligible to become a pilot, and I am not talking about the ASVAB. If you get in the military, they will pay for lasic eye surgery, but I do not know if that will affect your chance of becoming a pilot. The cons is that you get flight pay.
