He will be in there for a while, he is going to become a pilot, he has already passed all the tests and security clearances. the USAF is paying for him to get his private license, he is 2 hours away and doing it this weekend, then they are paying for him to go to college full time so he can get a 4 year degree, then go back into the Air Force full time and train to be a pilot

Cue the Top Gun jokes....
