But you're at Ft. Sam...the girl to guy ratio is like 10 to 1. That's better than most colleges. AIT is not 'the army', it gets better once you get into an actual unit. I would suggest that you do whatever you can to get into a flight medic position...you r life there will be much, much better than say if you get stuck in an infantry unit. I'm going on 17 years in the army now and it's been nothing but good to me.
