Several questions indeed!! :o) Well, first of all, being a police officer, I believe, you already posess all the positive traits you need to join the Air Force!! You can even request a guaranteed job in your current field. The ASVAB is not hard at all...I didn't think so. I did the guard and I am active duty. My preference is active, but that's a personal choice. To know if your recruiter is on the up and up, just ask yourself if s/he is reminding you of a car salesman when they answer a question. The best bet is to gather information and go in to their office informed. If you have any more questions, feel free to e me!! Happy New Year!
