I don't need to be a super hero and fully expected to be told that I would just be a paper pusher. I really do understand that most science / research isn't done (only funded) by the DoD. It's me, I'm the idiot that did this-engineering masters, went Air Force OTS. You do find out your career field before you go to OTS, I would have walked if I got something other than engineering. As mentioned, for engineers it's a total crapshoot on what kind of job you get assigned to. Good chance you're pushing paper, I somehow won the lottery and my first assignment has been fantastic. Plenty of technical work, get to fly reasonably often, still a standard measure of bullshit to put up with that you don't encounter in the private sector. Did well and was able to avoid the AFPC dice roll and now have my next assignment lined up which looks to be pretty awesome too. As far as I can tell, such luck is not at all typical so take it with a giant grain of salt. I went in with the attitude of having an adventure until it sucks and then moving on. So far it's worked out. lovely pay for an engineer for a few years but it catches up fast assuming you manage to not get a DUI. The medical career fields are special so I got nothing there, but pm me if you have any specific questions I might be able to answer.
