I thought he said he was considering the
Navy. I missed where he was considering the Air Force.

In eight years of active duty military service, I don't think I ever worked less than 10 hours in a work day. 12 hour shifts, though not the norm, were not unheard of. But, then again, I was Security Police. More was expected of us, and we gave more than was expected.
Enough of my prattle. Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines...it doesn't really matter.
Any branch that you choose is a noble choice. I will reiterate that which has been already drilled into you. Do
NOT sign the dotted line until the job that
you want is specifically spelled out, and guaranteed in that contract. After that...it's all up to you. As a member of the armed forces, you will be expected to uphold a higher standard. Those who cannot do this...are quickly weeded out. Those who can (and I firmly believe that you are one of these) are rewarded with a confidence and pride that will never leave you. You will understand that a little more, once you are in.
I'll leave you with four words that'll help you with the recruitment process;
Get. Everything. In. Writing.
