United States Air Force (USAF).
G.I. Bill and Tuitition Assistance covers 100%; I think that is true for all DOD sevices now. USAF is the best way of life; hands down.

With deployments of only 4-6 months in the Air Force,w e have it the best for college. Also, at majority of our deployed locations we have Education Offices and are highly encouraged to go to school while downrange.
If you go Army, you will have a full schedule deployed and are looking at 1.5 years per deployment. Typically these guys also go to bare bases.
Also, the Air Force is the only branch with its own Community College (CCAF). You get college credits for: BMT, Tech School, Upgrade Skill Level, Certain TDY's that involve classroom learning, etc.
We never go "into the field" for training, so you schedule should be lite enough to do 1-2 classes a semester.

All branches of the U.S. military service offer equal benefits for COLLEGE. However, when I enlisted in 1998 I was offered the Navy College Fund which was an additional $30,000 in education benefits due to the job I picked in correlation with my ASVAB score. However, I do not believe that additional education benefits are offered anymore with the new Post 9/11 G.I. Bill.
You should talk to all recruiters to get an idea of what you might like though.

you can definately use some college, considering its not "collage" haha its college. and the navy/air force would give you the best chance or free time to take college classes as well as give you credit for college through the schooling you can take. They all will pay for your classes as long as you are enlisted, and after your service they all have the MGI Bill which will cover you after you get out.
