Declining comission
Hello all, as was said in my first post, I'm currently AD navy with about two months left until my EAOS.
And as to my question, I have searched, and if I haven't searched hard enough then I apologize . . . but:
I'm planning on going back to college and keeping my nose in the books and bringing my GPA back up, once I do that, I will be eligible to sign an ROTC scholarship.
My question is, right now I've got mucho admiration and respect for the men that make up Army SF, and I would one day like to be among them:
So upon graduation, is turning down a comission and going 18x a possibility, given the fact that the Army would have at that point invested a great deal of money into a future Platoon Commander?
Either possibility, be it platoon commander or SF NCO would be a great privledge and responsibility, and I realize that I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, but I would like to take this into consideration before I obligate myself to an Army comission if what I would rather be is an SF NCO.
Any and all replies, be they criticism or otherwise, would be appreciated.
Thanks.
