Default Re: Military ATC

I was never in the military but I work with many that were... I **think** just the AF and Navy are your best bets for becoming a military controller. I work with a guy that was a Marine and was a controller (in Japan) but it is my understanding it's a tough gig to score in the Marines. Not all Navy controllers go to sea, a buddy of mine did 5 years in the Navy as a controller and never saw a ship. Most do... former Natca president John Carr was a controller in the Navy and was on carriers most if not his whole time.

It's an ATC message board with the majority of guys being military controllers, you should be able to get some good info over there.
